Governor Abbott has officially called a second special session to focus specifically on property tax relief!

Just as a fun mental exercise, where are the schools going to go instead to get the money they need to sustain their ability to Operate and pay for their Maintenance?

So you want kill funding for public schools so you can funnel money into religious institutions and indoctrinate children? Not to mention giving larger tax breaks to people with larger & higher values homes. Sounds pretty stupid.

Either cap property taxes after the property is a certain age or eliminate completely. The govt is forcing hardworking families out of their homes from taxes. There can’t be an endless 10% every year. That’s insanity. #DoYourJob

@ByGrace26 You’re absolutely right! As a Swedish American I’m troubled that the US population is putting up with these confiscatory taxes that Sweden got rid of long ago: - property taxes - wealth taxes - inheritance / death taxes This is DOUBLE taxation and not ok in a free society!!

Also they've been heavily invested in de-funding the public schools. Creating so much havoc over non-existent threats of 'porn' and 'CRT' to provide a pretext for such cuts. They want public money for private religious indoctrination.

There's a real push on by Republicans to make the private schools a bundle while insuring that children without monetary advantage will get shafted into generational poverty, because of a lack of adequate education. You're all dispicable!

Property taxes are so high because of the mismanagement of the Republicans. This is just a ruse to destroy public education because he wasn't able to force his voucher plan through the legislature.

All for lower property taxes!! School Districts (DISD) feel they have an unlimited bank account and love to spend “other people’s money”. Enough is enough!!

Maybe if they didn't spend so much time attacking transgender rights, they might get to what they are supposed to be doing. "Renting our property from the government?" And here I thought we providing education for our children and funding our local government services. Silly me

Get rid of all propert taxes and then shutdown the appraisal districts. Appraisal districts are taxation without representation.

But what is the plan to fund public schools?!? I don’t like the way it’s currently funded but if we reduce M&O, how will schools get that much-needed funding.

Property tax bills are due today. Imagine if Ottawa forced Alberta to collect a big federal tax hike on provincial letterhead. That's how municipalities are treated with the Province's 57% property tax increase over four years. It's time to keep property taxes local, with clear accountability and transparency. Imagine if Justin Trudeau ordered Danielle Smith to collect a massive federal tax increase through Alberta's tax bill. She'd be furious. That’s exactly what’s happening today to Alberta’s cities, with today’s deadline to pay your property tax bill. Not many of you may know, but now upwards of half of your property taxes go to the provincial government, and not the town, city, or municipality you live in. The biggest increase on your property tax bill didn't come from City Hall. It came from the Provincial government. The Province imposed a 21 percent increase on your property tax bill, the largest property tax increase in Calgary's history. Over the past four years, it has increased the education property tax by 57 percent. By comparison, our Council held the municipal property tax increase to just 1.8 percent. That funds police, firefighters, roads, transit, parks, snow clearing, recreation centres, and the infrastructure that keeps Calgary moving. Because of the Province's education property tax equalization formula, Calgary homeowners are paying about twice the increase faced by Edmonton homeowners. Don't take my word for it. Here's how the Premier herself describes where a large share of your property tax goes. "If we're going to rail against equalization at the federal level, then we can't keep doing the same thing to our municipalities..." The Premier is right. If we're going to oppose equalization at the federal level, we shouldn't be doing the same thing to Alberta's municipalities. Property taxes are local taxes. They should stay local. The Province should fund provincial priorities through its other revenue sources, and municipalities should collect property taxes for local services. Thank you for supporting the City services that keep Calgary safe, moving, and growing.
