Some state reps have a cure: the tax hike diet By Audltl Guha STAFF \\RITER With "looming shortfalls" in the budget, House leaders are propos­ ing list of 16 possible tax hikes to close a $2 billion or more deficit in the next fiscal year. They e,<;timate the budget gap this fi scal year, which ends June 30, is at least $500 million. House Ways and Means Chair­ man John H. Rogers recently sent a letter to Hou e members outl ining a series of moves, including the halv­ ing of the personal deduction, a re­ duced exemption for single parents, and limiting deductions for tuition TAB ALE PHOTO and students' tuition payments, in State Rep. Brian Goltlen order to deal with the "gargantuan and ghastly losses" for FY03.

'·· I EDITORIAL I Small excise tax hike will help cities, towns _, . Q the people working to hammer municipal budgets into balance, the i· nmediate task is to wee~ out what­ 'fever spending cities and towns can live without. But the problem, they say, is o 1 the revenue side. The new growth tbat expanded the tax ba~e year after year through the ·90s •' slowed to a craw I last year An increased local share of Lottery receipts, phased in over fi ve years, has peaked. With the news from Beacon Hill only get ing worse, the question i no longer whether local aid will be cut, but how much. Cities and towns have few options for making up that lo t revenue, all of them unpleJsant. Local officials are looking at new trash fees, charging students for busing and school ports and raising prope1ty taxes through Proposition 21/2 override . A working group appointed by House Speaker Tom Finner­ an and led by House Majority Whip Lida Harkins, D-Need­ hrun, ha~ come up with a handful of proposals that might help a little OQ the municipal siJe, including changing the way overlay accounts are counted under Proposition 21/2 and loosening the rules goven ing municipal construction. One of its proposals deserves serious consideration: Allowing citie and towns to raise the mo or vehicle excise tax. Back in 1980 voters - a·1d drivers - who were fed up with the tax went to the ballot box and as part of Proposition 2 ,, managed to reduce the excise tax from $75 per $1,000 valua­ tion to $25 per $1,000 per car. The excise tax has been capped ever since then at its current rate. The proposal would illow cities and towns to rai e it by $5 per $1,000. It's a modest increase unless you are buying an expensive car, but people buying expensive cars pre umably LETTERS can afford it.
