From YouTube: County Board Wrap-Up: Decal Elimination
Description
ATV's monthly conversation with County Board members on the major issues discussed at September's Board meeting.
A
B
It's
really
it's:
it's
the
evolution
of
technology
right
and
it's.
The
fact
of
the
matter
is,
is
it's
now
we
have
readily
available
license
plate
reading
technology
that
we
do
to
make
sure
that
cars
are
registered,
to
make
sure
that
if,
if
a
car
from
for
any
other
reason
shouldn't
be
on
the
street,
there
shouldn't
be
on
the
road,
and
so
it's
it's
it's
a
relatively
simple
step
actually
to
just
cross-reference
the
the
license
plate
with
have
you
paid
your
county
taxes
and
the
decal
is
going
away,
but
the
tax
is
not
going
away.
B
So
it's
just
a
different,
more
modern,
much
more
reliable.
Frankly,
because
it's
not
dependent
on
on
whether
or
not
the
an
enforcement
officer
happened
to
notice
your
decal
was
in
the
right
place
or
not
it's
it's.
So
it's
more
reliable
and
it's
just
modernizing
where
we
are
so
it's
a
little
bit,
I
think
the
with
a
little
bit
of
sadness
that
we
mark
sort
of
the
end
of
the.
B
It's
it's
a
long,
long-standing
tradition
and
I'm
optimistic
that
we
will
find
other
opportunities
that
are
no
shortage
of
opportunities
for
to
inject
creativity
and
artistic
interpretations,
into
lots
of
different
things
that
we
do
around
the
county.
So
I
think
we're
gonna
be
all
eyes
and
ears
open
for
looking
for
new
opportunities
to
sort
of
transition.
That
trend
that
tradition
to
some
other
venue,
but
the
decal
come
will
be.
What
November
15
next
year
will
be
a
thing
of
the
past.

It's
a
fairness
issue,
so
it
does
require
a
little
bit
of
a
pretty
modest
fee,
but
we
think
people
really
are
are
getting
the
dividends
of
that
one
of
the
things
that's
great
in
Arlington,
and
we
actually
heard
from
our
treasurer
about
this
worth
regard
to
property
taxes
during
our
recess
board.
Meeting
this
month
too,
is
we
have
a
very
low
rate
of
uncollected
taxes
and
terms
of
again
both
personal
property
as
well
as
property,
and
that
means
everyone
can
pay
less
than
they
might
otherwise
have
to
all.
