Does the Act cap how big a parcel tax can be put before voters?
Yes, the Act limits the total dollar value of tax proposals put before voters in any given election, utilizing its provisions, to $250 per parcel, adjusted over time for inflation. This limits how fast parcel taxes can be increased. That’s an important consideration for voters who want to control, carefully, how and where their money is spent.
