Three Cheers for Pennsylvania Land Value Tax Cities
Because UrbanTools is in Pennsylvania, it should be no surprise that land value tax is most prevalent in the Keystone state. We work all over the country in the world, but Pennsylvania is still "home." We've been proud to work with these communities, and are grateful that the outcomes have had positive effects and have helped people through hard economic times.

An item that has been making Front Page news lately has been the mess into which Scranton, PA has sunk. We commented, and got lots of response. The nicest was from David Madeira, a talk show host for 94.3 FM. He asked UT director Joshua Vincent to come on and make sense of the fiscal and economic history behind Scranton's woes and our proposal to let Scranton return to fiscal sanity by using a tool it already, but barely uses: the land value tax. |
