'92) South Dakota voted on a referendum which would do basically what Prop. 13 does. Basically, it would put a cap on how much property values can increase in a year -- the figure in there was something like 0.75% (three quarters of one percent) maximum per year. I don't think that it passed, but I could be wrong. Kevin A Roust roustk@cco.caltech.edu
