The Impact of Property Tax Revaluation of Wealth-Based State Aid to Schools--A Case Study of Tompkins County, New York.

Johnson, Michael S.

Economics of Education Review, v3 n1 p45-54 1984

This article examines a method of determining school aid, potential sources of abrupt changes arising from revaluation, an illustrative case, and policy options. It finds many problems caused by jurisdictional fragmentation and time lags inherent in the equalization process. Tables include full-value determinations and school district property values. (PB)
