1978 California Proposition 8

Relating to the reassessment of property value February 2026 December 2021 Proposition 8 (or Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 67) was an amendment of the Constitution of California relating to the assessment of property values. It was proposed by the California State Legislature and approved by voters in a referendum held on 7 November 1978. The amendment was necessitated by the passage of Proposition 13 in June of the same year. Proposition 8 allowed for a reassessment of real property values in a declining market. For this purpose it amended Article 13A of the state constitution, which had been added by Proposition 13. Today a reassessment based on a decline in market value is called a "Proposition 8" reassessment.March 2022 thumb|300px|Results by county: #B6C8D9 Yes #B6C8D9 50–60% #7D9CBB 60–70% #47729E 70–80% #28497C 80–90% #dedebd No #dedebd 50–60% External links http://www.propertytaxrefunds.biz/pdf/prop8.pdf California Voters Pamphlet, November 1978 https://web.archive.org/web/20110706145602/http://www.propertytaxrefunds.biz/pdf/prop8.pdf 2011-07-06 (excerpt on Proposition 8) California Voters Pamphlet, November 1978 (in full) Category:1978 California ballot propositions Category:Taxation in California 1978
