8 thoughts on “Council votes to approve creation of downtown enhancement tax”
Tax the residents to perform a duty that should be covered by the taxes they already pay. Thank the headline writer for calling it what it is; not a few but a tax. A fee is a charge for something you choose to participate in. A tax you have no choice.
Downtown property owners have been begging for these perks. And that’s fine, but why should my tax dollars go to special services for Downtown property owners that my neighborhood doesn’t receive? If you want extra services, you pay extra for it. It’s as simple as that.
Good idea… Downtown is Growing and this needs to be a standard!
Why is this burden placed on property owners, especially residents? This is ridiculous. Where did the $3.5 million dollars go that was from the CV-19 relief fund? I will wait. Also, think about it…the public was told when gambling was legalized in Indiana that those funds would be used to improve roads, infrastructure, parks, common public areas, etc. What happened to that promise? The answer is always stick it to the consumer and raise or invent another tax. Pathetic.
“Where did the $3.5 million dollars go that was from the CV-19 relief fund? I will wait.”
You shouldn’t wait. You should read.
The city quite clearly stated that this tax is meant to continue the work done with the COVID money running out.
“What happened to that promise? The answer is always stick it to the consumer and raise or invent another tax.”
Indiana has been cutting taxes for 20 years. Spare me this “taxes are always going up” nonsense.
The problem is not that we are overtaxed. The problem is we don’t spend enough. Everyone wants someone else to pay and no one wants to pay taxes themselves.
“Under the proposal, single-family homeowners would pay an annual $250 flat fee starting in 2025”. Are there still single family houses inside the mile square?
Me and my wife just talked about it. There might be about 20 houses/town homes at Vermont and East street. Nothing else.
Do condos count? Technically they’re “single-family/owner-occupied” but not detached units. I’m not sure under what definition that would fall under. If so, then there are a few other complexes that would go towards that count.
