TAXING ISSUES - City councilors meet as a committee of the whole
at 7 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall to discuss ways to increase revenue.
Two options involve taxes: a .75 percent local meals tax and an
increase in the hotel/motel tax from 4 percent to 6 percent.
Another is to continue the policy of having separate tax rates for
residents and businesses, and then to decide how much of the
residential tax burden to shift to businesses. Chelsea has
historically had a split tax rate. Councilors are set to vote on
this year's tax classification on Nov. 23. City Manager Jay Ash
will make a presentation to councilors on both issues, and give an
update on the city's financial condition.
