$10 Million Possible Says Ahee
State Sen Sol Ahee told the Downtown Optimists Club that a $10 million appropriation for state institutions could occur in a special session without raising the property tax rate. He cited post audit figures showing a potential tax rate shift from $1.80 to $1.63 with the new spending and urged action to fund the University of Arizona and the Southern Arizona Mental Health Center in Tucson. He credited Gov Paul Fannin for calling the session and warned of ground loss without timely capital outlay.
