Patch Election Q&A: Josh Salisbury on Question #4

Josh Salisbury's answer to our fourth question.

The question:

What are your thoughts on a vehicle sticker system, such as the one Evanston uses, that would impose a “wheel tax” on vehicle owners? More broadly, how do you feel about increasing taxes on village residents?

Josh's answer:

I am totally against a vehicle sticker program for the village residents. They pay enough in taxes and in this economy they do not need more burdens put on them by this village government. Second, I would not be in favor of a tax increase due to the large tax increase just placed on our residents by Springfield. They have enough burden on them.
