Property tax proposal knocked down

Due to what the Florida Supreme Court decided was a misleading ballot summary, the citizens initiative of limiting property taxes to 1.35% of highest taxable value was knocked off the 2010 ballot.

Those organizations fighting the property owners were the Florida League of Cities (a group diabolically opposed to citizens and one Retha Lowe just loves), Florida School Board Association and Florida Association of Counties.
