The Impact of Ballot Measures on Property Taxes
Rising Property Taxes in Colorado: What’s the Solution?
According to Coloradoan, Colorado’s government is having a special meeting to talk about rising property taxes. This is because many people are paying too much money in property taxes. The governor, Jared Polis, wants to help people save money by reducing the amount of property taxes they pay.
There are two proposals that are on the ballot that would change the way property taxes work. One proposal would make it so that people pay less in property taxes, but it would also take away money from important services like schools and roads. The other proposal would put a limit on how much money can be collected in property taxes, but it would also need a vote from all the people in the state. The governor’s office thinks that these proposals could cause problems for the state’s finances.
