Almy Report Executive Summary Study of Equalization Procedures Vermont Department of Taxes Property Valuation and Review Division Property Taxation and Assessment Consultants 225 West Washington, Suite 2200 Chicago, Illinois 60606 USA July 1999 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Act 60, the Educational Opportunity Act of 1997, may have forever changed the nature of property taxation in Vermont. With the institution of the statewide education property tax, over 50 percent of the property tax will be state-imposed rather than locally imposed. This change requires commensurate changes in the State’s administrative and regulatory oversight of the property tax. The State’s obligation for ensuring that the property tax is apportioned among the cities and towns fairly is now equal to the city and town’s obligation to assess fairly and consistently all property owners. This new obligation requires not just tinkering with existing procedures and systems, but major rethinking and redetermination of how equalization among the cities and towns is conducted. Local government revenues and taxes in Vermont from all sources, on either a per-capita or income basis, are less than the national average. However, Vermont local governments have historically made much greater use of the property tax as a source of funding local governments than local governments in the rest of the nation. Data from 1994 (the latest available) indicates that per-capita property taxes in Vermont were 5.8 percent above the national average and 17.5 percent above the national average as a percentage of income. The message is clear: the property tax is a most important source of funding government in Vermont. Act 60 may change the tax mix somewhat, but the property tax will remain critical to the funding of both education and local governments generally.

C. in Supreme Court Donate Research Publications School Choice Research There is a growing body of scholarly research on school choice programs. Last year, a Brookings Institution report characterized the overall findings about several tax-supported and privately financed programs in urban areas: "Although controversial, research generally shows positive effects for students using vouchers to attend private schools." "How Well Are American Students Learning?" The Brookings Institution, Brown Center Report on American Education, September 2001. In a separate book published last year, Paul Hill, Ph.D., director of the Center on Reinventing Public Education at the University of Washington and former Senior Social Scientist in RAND's Washington, D.C., office said: "Rigorously controlled studies of the links between vouchers and student achievement are mildly positive in virtually every case. [T]he weight of evidence is definitely toward positive effects [except for] middle-school boys in the District of Columbia."
