The League of Women Voters of NC states that this amendment would "shift greater authority over local funding decisions to the state while leaving the actual limits, formulas and possible exceptions to future legislation. The League is concerned that restricting local property-tax revenue could affect funding for public education, elections and other local services and/or increase reliance on fees."

This would limit your local community’s ability to raise funds where state funds are lacking. Would also mean that services would become more expensive or stop altogether. This is a terrible amendment that would do long term economic harm to our communities m.
