    ^ Current Issues Affecting Indiana Tax Policy Larry J. Stroble* Ronald d'Avis** I. Introduction According to Justice Holmes, "[t]axes are what we pay for civilized society."^ This statement would lead one to expect a certain civilized rationality in the procedures by which taxes are determined and assessed. Unfortunately, a close examination of most taxing statutes and re- gulations thoroughly dissipates any such expectation. This Article focuses upon policy issues affecting three Indiana taxes. Of most immediate interest is the general reassessment of all real property in Indiana, which is currently underway.^ Secondly, a recent revision of the Indiana Department of Revenue's regulations signifies an abrupt reversal of tax policy in the area of sales and use taxes.

  • Of the Indiana Tax Court's Jurisdiction, and the Attack on Indiana's Property Tax System
    Developments in Indiana Tax Law: Further Refinements of the Indiana Tax Court's Jurisdiction, and the Attack on Indiana's Property Tax System Lawrence A. Jegen, III* John R. Maley** I. Introduction During the survey period there were several significant developments in Indiana taxation. In the property tax area, the Indiana General Assembly directed the Indiana State Board of Tax Commissioners to study the property tax system. The legislature also created a special committee to study the reassessment process. Litigation challenging the very foundations of the property tax system was initiated as well. Just as important, however, are the developments involving the jurisdiction of the Indiana Tax Court. Even though the Indiana Tax Court is entering its fifth year, questions about its jurisdiction are still being resolved. In 1990, both the Indiana Supreme Court and the Indiana General Assembly limited the Indiana Tax Court's jurisdiction to some degree. Section II of this Article analyzes the Indiana Tax Court's juris- diction, including a discussion of the recent jurisdictional changes. Re- commendations are made to the Indiana General Assembly for improving the Indiana Tax Court's jurisdiction. Section III of this Article analyzes developments in the property tax area, focusing on the critical review of property taxation that is underway. II. The Indiana Tax Court's Jurisdiction After five years of existence, the basic jurisdictional confines of the Indiana Tax Court now appear to be in place, but a few important questions still linger. * Thomas F.

  • Indiana Constitutional Developments: the Wind Shifts
    INDIANA CONSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENTS: THE WIND SHIFTS JON LARAMORE* The modern era in Indiana constitutional law began in 1989, when Chief Justice Shepard published “Second Wind for the Indiana Bill of Rights” in this law review.1 His invitation to revivify Indiana constitutional law has been taken to heart by the bar and many of the chief justice’s judicial colleagues. But progress over the fourteen years since the article was published has not followed the pattern the chief justice forecast. New individual rights—beyond those guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution— have not been the primary product of the last fifteen years of state constitutional development.2 Although much litigation has addressed article I of the Indiana Constitution, the portion of the constitution covering individual rights, the Indiana Supreme Court has expanded individual rights beyond the federal standard in only a few cases. Rather, the most significant Indiana constitutional decisions have come from articles III through X, the provisions dealing with separation of powers, the responsibilities of the branches of government, and state institutions and finance.3 Indiana’s appellate courts have brought new attention to the Indiana Constitution, but the largest impact on everyday Hoosiers has not come from decisions applying article I. I. THE FADING PROMISE OF NEW INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS A. The Starting Point In his 1989 article, the chief justice reviewed the history of Indiana’s Bill of Rights, which was the primary source of individual rights protections before provisions of the Federal Constitution were applied to state action.4 He discussed the earliest history, when Indiana’s courts declined to enforce fugitive slave laws.5 He noted Callender v.

THE INDIANA BUSINESS TAX ROADBLOCK CHARLEs F. BONSERt It seems certain that the 1971 session of the Indiana General Assembly will be forced to confront the most serious and difficult set of problems faced by any legislature since the traumatic regular and special sessions of 1963.1 The problems faced by the 1963 session-tax revision and reapportionment-are once again demanding attention. In response to that demand this article will focus upon one aspect of the tax revision problem-the taxation of Indiana business and industry. Despite this narrow focus, the thesis of the article is that the solution to the current business tax quandary is the key to a successful revision of the total state revenue structure in 1971. Unless the business taxation methods now used by state and local government in Indiana are over- hauled, it will be exceedingly difficult to solve the problems of property tax relief, aid to the aged and disadvantaged, and necessary support for the maintenance and development of the educational system, penal and health institutions, and other areas dependent upon state government for support.

  • Rethinking the Administrative Structure of Indiana's Property Tax
    Rethinking the Administrative Structure of Indiana’s Property Tax System Frank Kelly and Jeff Wuensch © 2002 Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Working Paper The findings and conclusions of this paper are not subject to detailed review and do not necessarily reflect the official views and policies of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy. After printing your initial complimentary copy, please do not reproduce this paper in any form without permission of the authors. Contact the authors directly with all questions or requests for permission. Lincoln Institute Product Code: WP02JW1 Abstract Since the 1998 landmark decision by the Indiana State Supreme Court overturning the state’s assessment manuals, several significant steps have been taken by the state to meet the constitutional requirement of a “uniform and equal” assessment system. Most notable were the adoption of market-derived assessment manuals and adoption of stringent equalization requirements. Unfortunately, policy makers have ignored the fact that new assessment manuals and equalization standards, either individually or collectively, will not produce uniform and equitable assessments both within and between property classes and local assessing districts. It will also require the proper application of the state’s new valuation and equalization requirements by the state’s 1,100 locally elected assessors and two state oversight agencies. Moreover, this working paper explores whether the current administrative structures, both at the local and state levels, are conducive to attaining the state’s ultimate goal of providing for a more uniform assessment system. The authors make several recommendations to improving the administrative structure of the local property tax in Indiana, including reducing the number of local assessing districts, enhancing the state’s assessor training program, adopting pre- and post-election requirements for local assessors, and creating independent state oversight agencies.

NOTES UNIFORM PROPERTY TAXATION IN INDIANA-THE NEED FOR A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT The general property tax has been a source of revenue for state and local governments in this country since colonial days.' Early in the Nineteenth century, when the principal forms of wealth were land and farm stock, the draftsmen of state constitutions were concerned with in- suring that all such property was uniformly assessed and taxed.2 As a result, the Indiana constitution, as well as others adopted between 1840 and 1860, contains strict uniformity provisions.' The movement for uniformity waned after 1860' and subsequent state constitutions have left to the judgment of the legislature how a fair and workable system of taxation should be constructed. However, since 1851, Indiana taxing statutes have been limited by the requirements of article X, section 1: The General Assembly shall provide, by law, for a uniform and equal rate of assessment and taxation; and shall prescribe such regulations as shall secure a just valuation for taxation of all property, both real and personal, excepting such only for municipal, educational, literary, scientific, religious, or charit- able purposes, as may be specially exempted by law.
