TLC opposed HJR 63 by Pickett at the House Ways & Means Committee hearing today at the Capitol.  This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to authorize "the legislature to permit a county to issue bonds to finance the development or redevelopment of an unproductive, underdeveloped, or blighted area and to pledge for repayment of the bonds or notes increases" in property taxes in the area.
