Muskegon city income tax


I won't get into a city income tax vs. increased property tax vs. new business taxes/fees vs. increased spending on grant writers/lobbyists or other begging-for-money- from- government schemes.

Though that would be an interesting subject.

A city income tax has one benefit, increased revenue.

It is critical that revenue be thoughtfully invested or the net result for a city will be negative.

As it has been for Muskegon.

Unfortunately, there are some serious negatives that arrive with a new or increased city income tax.
