that minimum foundation program could be reduced by letting localities tax industry. the locals need to be fully paying for their schools anyway
I agree the locals need to be paying for their schools---we need to eliminate ALL property exemptions while holding actual collections still for one year so the millages will adjust downward and then let the locals vote on taxes to fund their schools. (A lot of homeowners would actually see their taxes go down as the millages fall.)
