Poll: Should Nonprofits That Own Property Pay Property Taxes?

In the wake of a recent newspaper article, “Tax Exemptions of Charities Face New Challenges,” which appeared in the May 26, 2008, issue of The New York Times, Philanthropy News Digest (PND) is conducting a poll of online readers to gauge whether nonprofit organizations that own their own property should pay property taxes.

The last time we checked the poll, 30% of the 92 voters said “yes,” 53% said “no,” and 16% were “not sure.”
