re: WPTV: Solar plants draw concerns from Louisiana farmers, officials

They damn sure should NOT be eligible for ITEP. They create hardly any jobs.

Farmers just aren't used to the property taxes most businesses in Louisiana pay.

It is time to reform property tax. We use all these BS programs that allow the state to have inordinate power and we should end it. End the homestead exemption and the ITEP and lower the millage so the collections are the same. Make taxes fair.

This is a ridiculous debate--I can build a trailer park on farm land in Washington or Tangipahoa parish but I can't put in a solar farm??? How stupid is that?
