The following communication from the City Council was presented: CITY OF CHARL0~SVI~, VIRGINIA May ~, 19~1 Beard of Couuty Supervisors Albemarle County Charlottesville, Virginia Gentlemen~ The Council has requested me to advise you that it has considered the suggestion made tc it throughMr. Gleason, that the City should not undertake to charge a license tax on line dealers having their plante i~ Albemarle County, but ing gasoline in Charlottesville. It is the f~eling of the Council that such a license tax is proper. The business conducted by these firms is not essen- tially a county business a~d they do net pay any county license tax. They use the city' streets for deliveries a~d property the city is subjected to fire hazard by their operation. The tax as levied ie not levied on all the business of the firm but is ~alculated according tc the amount sold at wholesale in the city, Wholesale dealers within the city ~n the other h~ud pay a license ~ased on all their sales, including Sales in Albe- marle County. It is the opinion of the Council that the tax is not inequitable and works no hardship, but is a proper Xevy om business done within the city. Respectfully yours, (Si~ned) JAS.' E. B~, JR.
