Higher local property tax for polluters may violate Poland's constitutional equality principle

Introducing higher local property tax rates in areas with high pollution, noise and heavy truck traffic may breach Poland's constitutional equality principle, if the same problems also exist elsewhere in the city. Legal experts point out that selectively taxing only certain districts without objective justification raises serious constitutional concerns. The issue puts local authorities' anti-pollution fiscal tools under scrutiny.
