Sales tax has been broken for many months now (at least it feels that way) and is a known issue that is either being worked on or is in the master fubar pile
What taxes do you have on shuttle and the garage? That is where the amount in my treasurey is coming from since we always tap out our treasurey every week in order to generally gauge what our taxes rake in. My crafters have a booming business (and get 5% more thanks to me) but our treasurey is always at under 150k per week before donations. It should get fixed soon enough hopefully. I haven't heard of a militia bug concerning ex mayors but then there are few secondary mayors it would seem; soit being unheard ofisn't too surprising.

GM told me himself that he's working on it, but he's a busy man

I am the former mayor of Xanadu Bay, Naboo, Eclipse.
At one point, we did have a 1% sales tax. Later I resigned and Mayor Beker Kozar took over the city. Everything seemed good. *tax had since reverted to 0% sales tax.
Somewhere along the way, I was booted from the militia. This was done by the game and not by the mayor. This occured after the auto-removal of my militia status when I was finally voted out (i'd been readded to militia by new mayor)
Didn't think too much about it, and he just readded me again to the militia.
Now recently, we added a 5% sales tax. As a major shipyards, we should have been raking in close to 3M per week in taxes at this rate... Imaging our surprise when checking the treasury to only see a pittance in there. The game IS charging the customers the tax but is only passing on to the city about 1% of the 5% tax. DAMN IMPERIAL KICKBACKS!
We do have a ticket in about the taxes. Originally I didn't see any correlation, but I was again bumped by the game, not the mayor from city militia. Now i started to think there is some correlation between the tax issue, the militia issue and my former mayor status.
I think somehow the game is still partially thinking i'm mayor and removing my miltia status after votes (even though I haven't been mayor for months). I think the game is registering Bekers 5% sales tax on the vendors, but is only passing on the 1% tax to the treasury that I had in place months ago.
Has anybody else even heard of an issue like this? It may be unique or new, since when a mayor resigns, they often leave the game.
