| Title: | INEQUALITY AND THE REFERENDUM LEVY |
| Authors: | Kaiser, Harry M.
Nelson, Glenn L. |
| Issue Date: | 1981 |
| Series/Report no.: | Staff Paper P81-2 |
| Abstract: | This study examines whether or not the referendum levy generates revenue disparities among school districts. More specifically, we hypothesize that if the referendum levy generates inequalities in school finance, a positive relationship will exist between: (1) district property wealth and use of the referendum; (2) district property wealth and the size of the referendum levy; and (3) district property wealth and revenue raised by the referendum levy. The discretionary levy is included throughout the analysis because, being equalized, it provides a relevant contrast to the referendum levy. |
