Delays Signing Bank Tax Bill Faces Governor Decision
Governor McKeldin postponed his ruling on a bill to cut the state tax on mutual savings banks. The measure would reduce the annual tax from 25 cents to 10 cents per $100 of deposits over five years, a change opposed by Baltimore city officials who warn of a $450,000 revenue loss. The banks have pushed the tax cut with a high profile lobbying effort, including a $20,008 fee to Joseph M. Wyatt. The governor has until tomorrow to act on General Assembly bills.
