Summary:
Chicagoans are the people who abide by city rules face higher fees for water, vehicle stickers and garage parking under Mayor Emanuel’s budget that comes up for a vote Wednesday. Some are below.
Offense old fine new fine
Tampering with city water meter shut off $500-$700
No vehicle sticker (large truck) $120 $500
Late fee for vehicle sticker $40 $60
Vehicle impound fee for arrests $1000 $2000
Failure to cut weeds, grass $500-$1000 $600-$1200
Illegal garbage dumping $250-$500 $300-$600
Parking in residential zone without permit $60 $75
Opinion:
Increasing the fee of vehicular staff will also increase people’s financial burden undoubtedly. As the financial storm happened, the government and relative organizations keep curtailing welfare and increasing fines from the people who didn’t do anything in the financial storm. In my opinion, the government should undertake the responsibility of fragile economy, which could be broken such easily. The government should also figure out more useful and workable policies but seizing from populace to stimulate the slack economy.
