Sales tax impact on Carrell County property taxes and school funding
The Wisconsin Agricultural Association reports the sales tax replacement feature may cut Carrell County property taxes by about four thousand dollars next year. Estimates of annual revenue range from forty to sixty million dollars, all directed to reduce school taxes unless counties divert funds for unemployment relief. School levies should be kept normal to cover potential constitutional issues, with funds allocated first to rural and then high schools, and leftovers to non-high districts. Farmers are urged to ensure funds are used for educational purposes to maximize tax relief.
