Gas Tax Exemption Case Threatens City Savings
San Antonio purchasing agent Whitlow Perkins says if the State Supreme Court upholds a Court of Civil Appeals ruling cities are exempt from the four cent gasoline tax the city could save about 449 dollars a year. He notes City equipment used off streets already lacks tax and cites 71 886 gallons used in September and October paying 2225 80 in tax. If exempt, city may sue for a refund dating to wholesale purchases.
