Bellville, TX – With our increase in new residents to our beautiful county, I say welcome. I would like to inform our taxpayers of a bill that was filed in the Texas House of Representatives by Rep. McClendon (D) – San Antonio. Her bill, HB392, would like to authorize an option county fee for vehicle registration to fund certain transportation projects that the county may use the funds for non-tolled transportation projects. I can see a positive in that it will allow our commissioners a little more funding for road projects to help our motorist, however on the downside it’s another fee our taxpayers will not enjoy. As a conservative, I despise being taxed more and more whether it is by the federal government or the state. As a member of the Tax Assessor-Collector Association of Texas half of our association supports this bill but as for me I listen to my constituents as to how you want me to fight in Austin for your needs as your Tax Assessor-Collector. I seek your feed back to serve you better.
