Impact of the Removal of Taxes

on Motor Vehicles





We have done an estimate of the calculation of the impact of the removal of

taxes on motor vehicles. Just as the School system discussed the dramatic

impact on their revenues, we will also suffer a similar impact. Since we are

currently at the 9 mil cap, there is no means to recover monies thru a tax

increase in the General Fund. The other funds do not have the same limitations,

but will receive less revenue as indicated at the chart below. At this point

in time, I think there is some discussion for the state to make up the

difference to municipalities, but we don't have any information on how that

would be accomplished.
