concord mass wants local income tax.. this could get ugly

[crashfromamesbury]

i heard this while listening to rush. a local resident of concord ma who is a member of the finance committee recently said that a measure was approved which was going to be presented this week before the town meeting for approval..

they want to institute a local income tax.. on top of the state and federal income taxes.. very similar to nyc.. the reasoning which was not clearly stated was supposed to lead to a lower property tax rate..

i can't see this as being good.. either way it would have to go the state house for a change to the charter of the community ..

just another way for the tax and spend community to get their way.
