the operative properties of the privately owned public utilities for the
purpose of local taxation returning
to the old advalarum system that
was in effect previous to 1910.
The Riley plan does likewise but
does not invoke the advalorum system, but instead, creates a new tgx
base from which to operate. It provides for a gross ineome:tax of 1
pes cent on the ross income earned during the year above the sum of
$100.00. If the Board of Equalization finds that the 1 per cent tax
raises more money that is necessary
they have the power under the act
to reduce this percentage to a lower
level which makes the tax rate flexible and will micet conditions ts
they arise. It, also, provides for a
transaction tax and leaves the present banking and insurance’ tax
method in force as the present
method is the only just way in
which they can be taxed.
It contains a tax Hmitation clause
or the state from increasing its
budget above 5 per cent over the
preceding year without permission
of the Board of Equalization,.in the
case of cities and counties, or by a
two-thirds vote of tht Lesislatur
in the case of the State. It, also,
provides that no county or city budget can levy more than 50 per cent
of the cost of that budget on real
and personal property,:which is
commonly known as common _ property tax. The balance of that budget would be met by the State from
other sources of income derived under this plan.
The Riley bill has passed the Senate without a dissenting vote and
the Feigenbaum bill has passed the
Assembly without a dissenting vote.
If either of these plans are accepted by the people at a Special Election, the pecple of my district will
immediately be benefited by a very
subsiatial reduction in their present common Property tax rates.
I stated in a recent letter my
reason for voting against the Clowdsley-Inman Tax Equalization Bill on
public utilities, because I believed
that if this bili had passed, it would
have prevented. the Passage of either the Riley or Feigenbaum bills,
which have for their sole purpose,
the equalization of utility taxes with
that of common properiy, placing
the utility properties on the same
tax roll with common property, and
the utility properties will pay the
same tax rate that is paid by common property in each of the counties of the State.
The papers that criticised me regarding my utility vote have recently stated that if either of these
Plans are adopted, the Inman-Clowdsley bills: would have no value because they could not be enacted into law, should the people accept
the Riley or Feigenbaum Plan.
The Clowdsley-Inman bills do not
give any relief to the common propeRe Popular :
