This February, Philadelphia City Council voted to reconvene the Philadelphia Tax Reform Commission to conduct an updated comprehensive analysis of all taxes imposed in Philadelphia, including by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and to make recommendations concerning tax reforms. The 15 member Commission is comprised of four members appointed by the Mayor, four members appointed by City Council, one member appointed by the City Controller, and one member appointed by each of the local chambers of commerce. As the Commission starts its work, PICA looked back at how recommendations from prior Tax Reform Commissions have been implemented, and how tax reform relates to the City's fiscal stability. |
