The League will share the results of its 2024 annual independent research study which will take a closer look at the income, property, and sales and use taxes generated for the State within municipalities. This report will also discuss qualitative considerations that drive these fiscal impacts, including that municipalities are places where Marylanders want to work, live, and play.
