121. Churches that use buildings should

Edited on Mon Apr-18-05 06:09 PM by Book Lover

pay a percentage of what the property tax would be if the land and building had a productive commerical use. That's fair - those organizations that use municipal services (water/sewer, fire and police) should pay for a portion of those services.

on edit: I said this better in a different post a little while ago: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=3480743&mesg_id=3480821
