An ordinance to increase fees Groveport residents pay for motor vehicle registrations is expected to receive its third and final reading Feb. 8, but some on Groveport City Council believe now – with family finances affected by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic – is not the time to seek higher taxes.
Members may decide to table the measure or “put it off until Jan. 1,” Councilman Scott Lockett said Jan. 26.
“It’s been a tough time for many people,” he said. “It’s not that it’s that much money, but when they go to pay the license fee, then they’re going to add another $5. It just sounds like a money grab.”
