And so it begins: statewide tax rate on vehicles. Real estate next, count on it

New Democrat majority proposes uniform mill rate on motor vehicles.

Owners of multi-family houses would get tax breaks, and there would be a single statewide property-tax rate for motor vehicles, under a wide-ranging finance proposal submitted to the General Assembly by Senate President Pro Tempore Martin M. Looney.

Republicans warned that the price tag could be hundreds of millions of dollars, in a shift of the statewide burden to more-affluent towns.

And wait for it: town school districts will fall within the decade.
