John Byrne reports from the statehouse in his blog that Sen. Sue Landske has added an amendment to Senate Bill 20 that provides for three ways to distribute funds from a proposed Lake County income tax.

Under Sen. Sue Landske’s amendment to Senate Bill 20, Lake County will have the option to distribute money raised through an income tax in three ways: to keep the money in the municipality where it is raised, to apply all funds to the county property tax levy, or to distribute 60 percent of funds where they are raised and the other 40 percent based on municipalities’ populations.

It’s great to see the Post-Tribune has embraced blogging in 2008!
