Elected Chicago school board may curb routine property tax hikes
Original: Long a foregone conclusion, property tax hikes will no longer be a given under elected CPS board
Chicago Public Schools has long relied on automatic property tax increases, but that may change now that the city's school board is fully elected. Reporting by WBEZ examines how newly elected board members could break with the tradition of approving district-requested tax hikes, reshaping how the school system funds its budget.
Why now: Chicago's shift to an elected school board is newly changing long-standing budget and taxing decisions.
