Ray Plan to Cut Iowa Property Taxes for Elderly and Farmers

Iowa Governor Robert D. Ray outlined a 1.5 billion budget boosting elderly relief and cutting property taxes. The plan uses 10 million of federal revenue sharing to extend exemptions for about 93,000 elderly homeowners, raises the state income tax exemption to 4,000, and eliminates livestock personal property taxes while shifting welfare costs to the state to reduce county levies. The package also includes expanded elderly services and a welfare takeover to cap local levies, aiming to lower property taxes for most Iowans by the end of the biennium.
