An agreement to drop an appeal seeking a vote on the plan was filed Thursday in the state Supreme Court. The agreement was signed by lawyers for Angle’s We the People Nevada group, the Nevada State Education Association which opposed the plan, and the secretary of state.
Angle had circulated an initiative petition and gathered about 83,000 signatures to amend the Nevada Constitution. But the education association filed suit and a district judge ruled there were defects in the petition.
The state Supreme Court agreed in September to keep the proposal off Tuesday’s ballot. But the case remained in the high court for further arguments.
The proposed constitutional amendment would have limited property tax increases to 2 percent per year for all property until a property is sold. The current cap, set by the Legislature in 2005, is 3 percent per year for owner-occupied homes and 8 percent for other property, including commercial.
Angle has tried for years to get a property tax limit into the Nevada Constitution. She has argued the cap needs constitutional protection because the Legislature could revoke its cap anytime it wished.
