To consider the following:


SJR 7            Ogden
Proposing a constitutional amendment establishing a maximum school
district ad valorem tax rate for maintenance purposes, providing
that an ad valorem tax imposed by a school district is not a state
ad valorem tax, authorizing the legislature to set a lower limit on
increases in the appraised value of a residence homestead for
purposes of ad valorem taxation by a school district, and
increasing the residence homestead exemption from ad valorem
taxation for public school purposes and correspondingly adjusting
the limitation on ad valorem taxes imposed for those purposes on
the homesteads of the elderly or disabled.
