Inside millage cap and voting limits in property taxes
The article explains a 10 mill inside millage cap within taxing districts and that all increases must be voted. It distinguishes real estate taxes by direct order and by popular vote, noting most millage is voted. Under the new law voted revenue must stay the same as before, preventing percentage increases. An example shows a $40,000 home rising to $60,000 in market value, with inside millage applied to the new value to yield higher tax, increasing government revenue by $50.
