City Tax On Cars Proves Impractical Says City Manager
Baytown City Manager C. D. Midgleton stated that the city cannot effectively collect the ad valorem car tax as it would cost more to collect than the revenue gained. A Texas League of Municipalities survey showed wide variation in enforcement across cities, with many making little or no attempt to collect the tax, and efficiency improving only in some places. The 52nd Legislature had proposed requiring owners to pay the tax before license plates, but the league argues collection remains impractical.
