Assignment task:
Assessments and property taxes are two methods by which governments can get around their limitations. States and local governments may modify their criteria for assigning value to properties in order to boost their borrowing capacity. These criteria are used to determine the amount of property tax collected and the assessed value of a property. Increasing the proportion of a state's total debt to its gross domestic product (GDP) or reducing the amount of annual interest payments as a proportion of the state's revenue are two typical tactics for minimizing a state's indebtedness. Because lawmakers want some wiggle space in the event that the state encounters unusual capital demands due to natural disasters, aging infrastructure, or other challenges, these constraints are just recommendations rather than absolute limits. The borrowing limits of local governments may be interpreted as suggestions rather than hard limits, allowing them to borrow more money without fear of exceeding their limits
