ROGERSVILLE — The Hawkins County Commission's Budget Committee took no action Monday on a resolution that would exclude disabled property owners 65 and older from having to pay the $40 wheel tax increase that went into effect last year. That proposal has been discussed and voted on by the County Commission several times since the $40 wheel tax increase was enacted in October 2017 and has yet to pass. This latest wheel tax exemption resolution was introduced by Commissioner Syble Vaughan-Trent, who didn't attend Monday's Budget Committee meeting. Some Budget Committee members expressed reservations about the proposal, which only affects disabled property owners 65 and older who are actively on the state's Tax Relief Program. Committee member Valerie Goins noted that the commission has already approved a 2018-19 fiscal year budget that used $95,284 in savings to balance.
