School Finance Reform in the State of Michigan.
Vergari, Sandra
Journal of Education Finance, v21 n2 p254-70 Fall 1995
In 1993, the Michigan Legislature eliminated the local property tax as the main public education funding source. This article explores the details of Michigan's policy process during late 1993 and early 1994, focusing on consequences. Recently, the school property tax was partially reinstated. The system is working, but vulnerable to cash shortfalls. (51 references) (MLH)
