SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – The legislature’s Property Tax Task Force resumed work on reducing property taxes today.
Meeting in Sioux Falls they heard a detailed explanation of the state’s property tax system, which funds local governments.
During the past legislative session, lawmakers talked often about inefficiencies in local government operations.
Today they heard from city officials who dispute that claim – including Sioux Falls City finance director Shawn Pritchett.
The Task force will work to find recommendations for the full legislature to consider next year on lowering property taxes.
