Docking Studies Spread Delay Of Tax Residue
TOPEKA Gov George Docking considers delaying the June distribution of the 12.5 million dollar sales tax residue to provide working capital for the next fiscal year. He may urge delaying the residue and reenacting a ten mile tax on trucks if needed while opposing a general sales tax increase. Docking notes local governments would not be harmed by the delay as they spend funds later, and cites past truck tax changes and gas tax debates in shaping his stance.
