(WSB Radio State Capitol Bureau) -- Gov. Perdue weighs in on tax reform in Georgia, sure to be hot topic under the Gold Dome come January.
Perdue says he supports studying a plan by House Speaker Glen Richardson that would eliminate all property taxes in exchange for a higher sales tax.
He also says it bares studying the elimination of income tax as well.
"I think everyone agrees that property tax isn't a pleasant surprise during the Christmas holidays, most of the time when they're coming due, but neither are income taxes in the spring on April 15th as well," says Perdue.
He says now is a good time to look at some sort of tax reform due to Georgia's substantial rainy day fund.
