Atiyeh offers net receipts tax; bold plan surprises legislators SALEM (AP) - Gov Vic Atiyehs proposed 1 percent net receipts tax to balance his 1983-85 budget caught legislative leaders by surprise Interviewed following the release of the budget Wednes day morning, most leaders re served comment on the plan until they had time to study it more closely No one expressed any initial dislike for the plan however Neither did any legislative leader accuse the governor of spending too much or too little, but no one had a chance to examine the budget carefully Copies were provided to legis lative leaders only an hour before Atiyeh held a news con ference to announce the proposal House Speaker-elect Grattan Kerans. D-Eugene. said he was pleased with the governor's spending plan, which includes a general fund budget of $3 3 bil lion compared with the adjusted 1981-83 budget of $2 9 billion He said he has no way of knowing how members of the House will respond to the governor's net receipts tax "It’s a new concept to me," Kerans said "The last time it was dis cussed was during the Hatfield administration." Kerans complimented the governor for presegting a dramatic and bold" budget to the Legislature Atiyeh has proposed doing away with the general property tax relief program and replacing it with an expanded Homeowners and Renters Relief Program. The family in come ceiling would be raised from $17,500 to $30,000 He wants to freeze property tax rates at their 1982-83 levels and allow assessed values to rise by no more than 5 percent each year Atiyeh suggested doing away with the $1,000 personal ex emption on state income taxes and replacing it with an $85 tax credit In addition, every per sonal and corporate taxpayer's income would be taxed a min imum of 1 percent Senate Pres Fred Heard, D Klamath Falls, said the gover nor's plan to "hold the line'' on state spending was appropriate to the state's economic circum stances. but he said the Legis lature will want to make its own judgments on spending for specific programs The governor's taxing propo sals are very complex, he said Bills spelling out how they would be implemented will not be available for several weeks, and the Legislature will certainly have a number of questions to ask when they are introduced, Heard said House Minority Leader-elect Larry Campbell, R-Eugene, reserved comment on the net receipts tax, but he said he was pleased with the level of spend ing proposed for higher educa tion, crime prevention and cor rections Campbell also hinted that House Republicans may be receptive to the governor's property tax freeze, a plan they rejected in 1981 GET A HEAD START IN A NUCLEAR CAREER.
