Promised Link To Updated Property Tax Estimates From Legislative Council- The "Freeze" Hits Hard-1.7 Billion to 3.8 Billion


Click on the headline above or take a look at the Colorado Senate News Analysis. That the estimate of how much money that's going to be collected from taxpayers is too low is not surprising but how far off the estimate was certainly is an unexpected jolt. A $117 million increase in taxes this year, but some of the Democrats still are trying to sell this as not needing to be voted by the public per the Taxpayers Bill of Rights. I'm not sure which is worse, believing that or hoping the Colorado Supreme Court will let you make this huge end run around Tabor. Don't forget, the judicial branch also is limited in its expenditures by the legislatures Tabor limitations on available funding.
