ARRANGEMENT: Chronological

DESCRIPTION: These records were created by the Governor's Tax Limitation Planning Committee (December 1988 through March 1989) and by the Office of Planning and Budget (OPB) in an effort to look at alternative approaches to government spending. This committee was created by the Governor in response to tax initiatives and anti-tax petition drives that commanded much public attention in the late 1980s. The records include the short-lived committee's meeting minutes, OPB statements regarding the impact of the tax initiatives on state agencies and local governments, related newspaper articles, and an enrolled copy of the State Government Spending Limitation Act (H.B._270) that was approved by the Legislature in the 1989 General Session.
