Lehe Proposes Tax Money Stay Put
Filed Under COIT, Don Lehe, Income Tax, Lake County, property tax crisis
Will a plan by Rep. Don Lehe stop Lake County income tax money from flowing from the south to north?
Reports the Northwest Indiana Times:
If a Lake County income tax becomes a reality, state Rep. Don Lehe, R-Brookston, wants to be certain the benefits of that tax will be felt by those paying it.
“What I’m drafting is requiring that the money return to the area from which it came,” Lehe said Friday. “If it’s to be property tax relief, it should be relief to the area it was taken from.”

This is not going to happen. Why would legislators from other parts of the state vote for this? They’re already under their own COITs, under the current rules.
Not to mention that Lehe is a Republican, and the Democrats run the legislature.
Hi Buzz,
I think it relates back to your earlier observation about Rep. Lehe thinking that he can fool Lake County voters.
