Res 769 2/12/1968RESOLUTION NO. _76
WHEREAS, after an extensive study, the Board of Aldermen
of the City of Wichita Falls has determined that the ad valorem
tax on personal automobiles is an inequitable tax, and it is
impossible to collect this tax equally and uniformly from the
owners of personal automobiles .
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE. BOARD OF ALDERMEN
OF THE CITY OF WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS, THAT:
The City Manager is hereby directed to take the necessary
steps to eliminate the assessment of ad valorem taxes on private
personal automobiles for the year 1968 and future years. Auto-
mobiles used as business vehicles will continue to be assessed
for taxation, as these comprise an integral part of business
personal property. However, the Tax Department and the City
Attorney ' s Department shall continue to collect all outstanding
ad valorem taxes assessed against private personal automobiles
for the year 1967 and all prior years .
PASSED AND APPROVED this the 12th day of February,
1968.
