Title:
Legislative Limelights...Cities face same dark outlook in Legislature
Creator:
Plastino, Ben
Date Created (ISO Standard):
1979-07-25
Description:
A newspaper article discussing: Idaho cities are facing financial challenges due to restrictive state policies, with reduced services like police and fire departments as a result of property tax freezes. Governor John V. Evans suggested state-local revenue sharing as a potential solution, but proposals like local-option taxes have limited support. Many legislators, particularly from rural areas, have been unsympathetic to city needs, and urban areas are increasingly relying on out-of-county lawmakers for assistance.
