Repealed 33 years ago, homeowners get bills now
When an 80-year-old West Side homeowner received a bill this week for an unpopular "occupancy tax" that was repealed three decades ago after a near-revolt by city residents, he thought the notice might be an error.It was no mistake. The city mailed bills this week to 2,994 property owners informing them that they owe money for a fee that was imposed in 1976, then abolished after only a year. Posted by: Fred 2010-05-09 |
