Local
schools are forced to relay too heavily on the local
property tax. And when you do that , you put
an unfair burden on seniors, low-income families and
long-time residents. -
Richard
M. Daley, Mayor of
Chicago
Purpose
Recognizing the inherent
unfairness of the anachronistic property tax system,
the purpose of the PPC Property Tax Caucus is to (1)
restrict any further expansion of the property tax
by virtue of increases in the tax or additional
public services drawing on property tax revenues,
(2) gradually reduction in reliance on the property
tax, and (3) eventual elimination of the property
tax all together. In in most cases, public
school funding is a very high proportion of the
property tax burden, the Caucus generally supports
most measures which shift educational funding to
other systems.
