Tax fears rise as state commission proposals target motor vehicle fees
The State Tax Study Commission proposals to raise municipal revenue draw strong opposition from Coleman W. Roberts president of the Carolina Motor Club who denounces any extra taxes on motor vehicles as inequitable and discriminatory. He cites a 1925 New Bern ruling that no municipality may tax motorists more than 1 per license plate and warns an enabling act to permit a 9 to 10 dollar levy would be a huge windfall for cities. He argues vehicle ownership is a necessity and a tax on transportation raises living costs and burdens those least able to pay.
