State Taxpayers Plan Tax Reform Convention
Measures to regulate fees in state and county offices and to study expenditures of tax-supported institutions were announced by the State Taxpayers association to be reported at their Waco convention Friday and Saturday. Proposals include placing all state and county fees into a general fund, empowering county commissions to set salaries and regulate department staffing, and creating a state tax board to oversee all departments collecting taxes and fees. The reforms aim to eliminate unnecessary costs, extend the tangible use law, and establish a single valuation for tax purposes, with a five-member judicial reform committee to report in a year.
