Assessing the Theory and Practice of Land Value Taxation
Richard F. Dye and Richard W. England
Febrero 2010, inglés
Through an examination of more than 30 countries and several U.S. municipalities that have implemented a land value tax as an alternative to the traditional property tax, this report helps officials create better tax reform packages for their jurisdictions. The report’s recommendations include using best assessing practices, adding a tax credit feature in communities where land-rich but income-poor citizens might suffer from land value taxation, and phasing in dual tax rates over several years.
