Board says cuts would hurt Carroll's revenue stream
Wiley Hayes, Times Staff Writer March 7, 2015
The Carroll County Board of Commissioners is unified in
opposition to several proposed tax cuts in the General Assembly that would
affect the retirement incomes of military personnel, first responders, the
elderly, the disabled and property taxes for small business.
Commissioner Richard Rothschild, R-District 4, said there
are three reasons why the board is against the bills.
Concerning the bills that would only affect the military and
law enforcement, the commissioners oppose any tax cut that favors government
employees over the private sector, Rothschild said.
The commissioners also believe the cuts should be introduced
incrementally to lessen the impact they would have on Carroll's revenue stream.
