Two statewide initiatives that will reduce property taxes and slash fees on motor vehicles and cell phones have been certified and will be placed on the 2010 ballot. Amendment 60,  which would roll back property taxes, received 139,960 signatures, Secretary of State’s Office spokesman Rich Coolidge said Monday. After statistically sampling 5 percent of the signatures, the department concluded the backers had a projected 105, 334 valid signatures, which is far more than the 76, 047 needed to get on the ballot.
