RE 06-12-73.1 RESOLUTION NO. 061273.1
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS
WHEREAS, it has been proposed that the City of Dallas
adopt a Dallas commuter payroll tax which would levy a tax
against all persons who work in the City of Dallas but do not
reside there; and,
WHEREAS, the levy of such a tax by the City of Dallas
would in all probability cause the other cities of Dallas County
to levy the same type of tax against all nonresident employees
working within each particular city; and,
WHEREAS, such a commuter tax proposition would be
difficult and a burden to administer; and,
WHEREAS, such a commuter tax would in all probability
be in violation of the constitutional provisions concerning taxa-
tion without representation.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS:
SECTION 1. That the City Council of the City of Coppell,
Texas, disapproves and directly opposes the proposed Dallas
commuter tax for the reasons stated herein.
DULY PASSED on the /~ -~L day Of %}~C~z~__~ ,
