Indirect Taxes Prompt City Confusion Over Funds
An observer notes Lawrence now collects at least three taxes or charges to fund city operations. One is the direct ad valorem tax on property, while two are indirect charges for services. Water department income diverted to the city building fund acts as a tax in effect, billed as pumping and delivery charges. Parking meters feed the general fund, masking as service fees but functioning as taxes. The observer argues taxpayers should know what they are paying for and why, questioning the efficiency of this method.
