Rickie Williams: Either a payroll or insurance tax, not both Comments about: Council adopts recommendation to implement new tax, tax rate New "Occupational License Tax" ordinance will leave insurance tax at present rate, but dramatically lower real estate and personal property rates. I am unsure of your definition of something being "dramatic," but a savings to the owner of a property assessed at $80000 falling from $210 (at the current .2625 per 100 rate) to $184 (at the new proposed .23 per 100 rate) . . . a savings of $26 whole dollars . . . is not exactly what I refer to as dramatic. In my opinion, the city needs to make a choice: Either a pay roll tax or the insurance tax, but not both. Thanks, Rickie Williams - for calling my hand. In all fairness to Councillor Parson, she gave both figures orally in the meeting and it slipped past me. I relied on the graph in the presentation and handout - the impact of the blue bars for before and after. Again, I didn't catch that the tiny increments in the graph which made it appear to be a huge drop until one looks at the value of the numbers. An edit is called for, to delete the adverb "dramatically." - ED WAGGENER This story was posted on 2014-08-20 10:23:56
