Forecasting the Future of Tax Policy, Revenues, & Municipal Government Tue., August 25, 2020 | 9:30 AM — 11:00 AM Virtual Event 1307 E. 60th Street Chicago, IL 60637 United States Sponsored By: Metropolitan Planning Council & UIC Public Administration College of Urban Planning & Public Affairs COVID-19 has been a traumatic and revealing experience for everyone, but in drastically different ways from one community to another. Tax policy has a lot to do with that. Communities dependent on sales and other consumption taxes have seen catastrophic results very quickly. Communities dependent on property taxes have been buffered… for now. Many places fall somewhere in between. This event will feature experts in municipal finance and governance, examining both near-term and longer-term consequences of the ongoing pandemic, and looking ahead to what shifts are needed locally, regionally and statewide in order to build and sustain more resilient and equitable communities.
