According to Herrmann s calculations, the annual fee cost the average township household $5.55 per month. I feel like, while it was definitely a campaign issue for the supervisor, clerk and treasurer and had gained traction with residents, we as a board had not heard from people who were very upset about this fee, Herrmann said. Before we rescind it, I feel we should make a concerted effort to study it and get feedback from our residents.
Abbo, who made elimination of the administrative tax a priority of his campaign for supervisor, acknowledged that while the fee is relatively small, these small amounts add up.
