If you live in Durham, get ready to hand over more of your money to the city. The special $10 vehicle fee that was approved for Durham by legislators in 2004 is set to expire. That’s put Durham officials into overdrive to not only get an extension of the existing fee, but also to hike the fee by 50%, to $15 per vehicle. What does Rep. Mickey Michaux (D-Durham) think about it? From the Herald-Sun:
While an extension of the present $10 fee looks like it might be in the cards, it’s not clear whether legislators will act on the city’s request for a $5 increase.
Michaux said an increase is “a possibility,” but so is an extension that would “give us more time to flesh this out.”
