Jan 10, 2008 — One of the most anticipated parts of Governor Spitzer's State of the State address was his proposal to confront spiraling property taxes.

But here in the North Country, property taxes fuel everything from local highway departments to senior health care and after-school sports. They also fund a huge percentage of high-paying jobs. As Brian Mann reports, a cap on property taxes would shift the foundation of the North Country's economy.
