Evans Vetoes Four Mill School Tax Reduction Bill
Gov John V Evans vetoed a bill to permanently cut the county school levy from eight to four mills saying it would deplete general fund revenues and force tax increases elsewhere amid Idaho's drought and weak revenue projections. He warned the measure could cut public school funding and benefit large corporations and utilities without lowering prices. Rep Gordon Hollifield said the veto would raise taxes on property owners and urged trust in the Revenue Protection Committee.
