portability: Interesting letter from Rep. Domino
- 11/02/07 03:15 AM
Save Our Homes (SOH) Portability Update! I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your support. We have come a long way, since four years ago, when I first filed the portability legislation. Last Monday all of our hard work paid off and both the House and Senate overwhelmingly supported and voted for portability. Even some legislators who voted against the overall tax package were quoted as saying that they did so because it did not provide enough relief. Locally, Senator Jeff Atwater and Senator Ken Pruitt as well as Democrat Senators Bullard, Deutch and Aronberg supported portability. In the House, Democrat Representatives Brandenburg, Vana, Sachs, … (2 comments)

portability: Letter from Carl Domino on Portability

I wanted to forward this letter that was sent to me by Rep. Carl Domino on Portability. I think it's very interesting but I'm not a supporter. I think the portability bill could help our residential real estate market, and I know we all need that. Unfortunately, I think it would have too negative an impact on our local government and on commercial property. I welcome comments. His e-mail: SAVE OUR HOMES (SOH) PORTABILITY UPDATE! I was gratified to read in today's news, that Carlos Lacasa, who sits on the State Taxation and Budget Control Committee, believes that my SOH Portability concept should be placed … (0 comments)
portability: Another update from Rep. Domino
- 06/15/07 06:15 AM
I just received this e-mail from Rep Domino. I think he raises some very valid points. Several are the same as my comments in the last blog entry even. While I agree with him that this bill leaves some major gaps, it does seem to move in the right direction. It will alleviate some of the pressure that SOH is putting on non-homesteaded property. While not perfect it could be a step in the right direction.-----------------------------------------------------------------SAVE OUR HOMES UPDATE!In a few hours we will commence to debate a Constitutional Amendment which will repeal Save Our Homes.This protection for our citizens will … (0 comments)
portability: Quick update

I just received this correction to Rep. Domino's earlier message: Since writing our last update, we have been informed that the Legislature scheduled a General Election for the Party Primary, on January 29th, 2008. Accordingly 75% will not be required to get the Constitutional measure on the ballot. In today's Property Tax joint meeting, the possibility of portability being put on the bill was raised. During the next two weeks, we will keep you informed in a timely manner on the Special Session.Carl J. Domino … (0 comments)
