Iowa City council hears opposition to franchise fees
A small turnout opposed the proposed franchise fees, labeling them a tax. Local groups Iowa City Area Development and Iowa City Area Chamber of Commerce warned the fees would hurt businesses already battling a recession. Chamber leader Rebecca Neades urged budget cuts instead, noting non property taxpayers would share the fee. Mayor Regenia Bailey cited upcoming cuts and the large exempt property value in 2008.
