State urged to accept voluntary SRP payments in lieu of taxes
Gov. Paul Fannin’s 15 member study panel urged Salt River Project and similar districts to make voluntary payments to the state in lieu of taxes on electricity used beyond irrigation pumping. The plan would route funds to state and local governments, with 24 percent to the state, 51 percent to school districts, 19 percent to counties, and 6 percent to municipalities, starting at about 1.6 million dollars in year one and growing to 3.5 million by 1970. Rod McMullin, SRP general manager, warned rates could rise for some customers.
