The Dairy Zones Bill
Pennsylvania plans tax breaks for new dairy zones
Providing for the creation of keystone opportunity dairy zones to facilitate the economic development of Pennsylvania's dairy industry; authorizing expenditures; providing tax exemptions, tax deductions, tax abatements and tax credits; creating additional obligations of the Commonwealth and local governmental units; prescribing powers and duties of certain State and local departments, agencies and officials; and imposing penalties.
Bad for everyday people ·
The bill would let the state set up special dairy zones and give farms tax cuts, while shifting the cost of those cuts to taxpayers.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
If passed, dairy farms could keep more money and expand, but ordinary Pennsylvanians may see higher taxes or fewer services because the state will pay for the incentives.
