2. A property tax cap is NOT the answer!! What would work is pension reform, paperwork reduction, and relief from other expensive state mandates. Support REAL property tax relief: Support paperwork reduction by voting for A7568 / S03874 Support pension reform by seeking approval for a Tier V that would require employees to support their own retirement fund during their entire working career. Permit school boards to prepare for GASB 45 by allowing them to set up reserve funds for post employment benefit obligations.
