Candidates from both parties in the municipal election spoke on repealing the city license tax on motor vehicle operators. Despite advocacy for repeal, residents will still need to purchase a $2 city license for the new fiscal year starting July 1, obtainable at the city clerk’s office or the Central Fire Station during stated hours. The tax applies to every resident licensed to operate a motor vehicle within the city limits, with payment due by July 1. Some residents question the necessity of licenses this year amid campaign talk.
