(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - An income tax increase for people who earn their paycheck in Dearborn County could be voted on Wednesday.

Dearborn County Council is due to meet for a public hearing on a proposed increase in the local income tax. The meeting will start at 6:30 p.m. at the Dearborn County Government Center in Lawrenceburg.

The proposed increase would double the county’s local option income tax to 1.2 percent.
