North Dakota's Measure 4 aims to end ad valorem property tax while maintaining tax levels, potentially causing funding inequality.

Measure 4, proposed for North Dakota's November ballot, aims to end ad valorem property tax but maintain current property tax collection levels for local taxing entities. If passed, the state would replace eliminated revenues, potentially disadvantaging jurisdictions with low property taxes, like Mountrail County, which could be forced to maintain their current tax collection levels. The amendment may create inequality in funding between jurisdictions with lower and higher property taxes.
