The citizens of Massillon should have received their Easter Greetings from Taxman Dave Hersher in the mail this week. It's your quarterly bill from the City of Massillon Sewer & Waste Department.
Under "Code" where it is marked "ST" is Taxman Hersher's storm water utility fee.
We are still anxiously awaiting the list of storm water projects this tax is going to address.
The cynical amongst us might believe this money isn't really going to be used to fix problems caused by storm water run off.
This tax has only been in effect six months now.
We are confident the city is just taking its time prioritizing "storm water" projects.
When you see Taxman Hersher, be sure to thank him for his tax, and express your appreciation for all the storm water utility work being conducted in the city.
