The Washington City Council will consider a municipal Wheel Tax and Motor Vehicle License Excise Tax tonight.
Indiana’s municipal and county areas, including Washington, are considering adopting or increasing wheel taxes and vehicle excise taxes to generate dedicated revenue for local road repairs and secure matching state infrastructure grants.
The push is largely a response to legislative changes that capped property tax revenues, forcing cities to seek alternative funding to qualify for state road distribution dollars.
The Washington City Council will meet tonight at 6:30 p.m. in Council Chambers at 200 Harned Avenue.
