  1. Dear Mayor Fadness,

    What about the special Fishers Wheel Tax we pay for? Instead of increasing taxes, work within the revenue you have. if this means delaying other projects, waving impact fees or foregoing handing out incentives for more development, sobeit.

  2. Same comment as PJ C.’s — I thought we did the wheel tax to cover the added cost of fixing our roads. Why are we getting another permanent tax for something you charged us for already. Poor planning or is there another reason?

    Also – Yes, Fishers CITY TAXES are lower than our surrounding cities; however, we the people pay school and other local taxes as well. When you add the school tax to the city tax, then our TOTAL TAX suddenly jump above most of the cities around us. And that’s before the wheel tax.

  3. The Wheel Tax went not to fixing roads, but to the crazy round-about madness to keep up with Carmel.
    Have you noticed how recently your property value has increased by thousands? That is so you can now pay more taxes. You certainly won’t get that amount if you sell because your property isn’t really worth that, but you can now pay more taxes.
