No conservation plan means no tax break, Pennsylvania legislator says
Published: , in Outdoor News
State Rep. Mike Sturla, D-Lancaster County, has introduced a bill requiring any landowner in the Clean and Green program to have a conservation plan in order to receive the tax break.
Clean and Green is a preferential tax-assessment program that bases property taxes on use values rather than fair market values. This ordinarily results in a tax savings for landowners, sometimes as much as 50% and is seen as a way to protect farmland and forests from development.
