Millcreek Township Task Shift (Act 1)

Here is a link to the presentation given on the proposal to shift the taxes. From the presentation:

Winners

  • Elderly homeowners with no EIT or PIT
  • Lower income homeowners
  • Farmers - probably
  • Philadelphia workers

Losers

  • Elderly with significant PIT
  • Renters
  • Homeowners who do not file application
  • Higher income homeowners (includes many 2 wage earner families)
  • Students? [sic]
  • Gamblers! [sic]

Neutral

  • Elderly renters
  • Middle income homeowners
  • Commercial

Per this pdf, the recommended question is "Do you favor imposing an additional .52% earned income tax? The revenue generated from the increased tax rate will be used to reduce taxes on qualified residential properties by $375.51. The current earned income tax rate is .50%."
