What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

School tax proposals passed in Osceola County, Lake County, and Orange County, ensuring millions in funding for local school districts. These local victories occurred even as voters approved a statewide measure that slashed other taxes on homesteaded properties. State legislators carved school districts out of the impacts of the statewide tax reduction.
