Letter Opposing S.2874 – Ending Debt-Based Driving Restrictions (Excise Tax Enforcement)
Board unanimously approved a letter urging legislators to reject S.2874, warning that removing the RMV license-hold enforcement mechanism could slash Hull's ~$1.66M excise-tax revenue and force property-tax increases.
💰 Hull excise tax revenue ~$1,663,903 (96.4% collection rate); $58,500 currently uncollected; statewide risk of ~$440M loss
Why this matters: Could force property-tax hikes if excise-tax collections fall.
