Pension costs to tax local governments Budgets likely to exceed state cap Sunday, August 28, 2011 By Michael Lamendola (Contact) Gazette Reporter Retirement system costs for local governments in 2012-13 will exceed the state’s newly imposed 2 percent property tax cap, meaning some property owners could see tax increases of 4 percent to 5 percent next year, according to officials. By the numbers According to the state comptroller’s office, the following are employer contribution rates toward the retirement systems: - 2007 — 11 percent for ERS, and 17 percent for PFRS, for a total of $2.7 billion. - 2008 — 10 percent for ERS and 17 percent for PFRS, for a total of $2.6 billion. - 2009 — 9 percent for ERS and 16 percent for PFRS, for a total of $2.5 billion. - 2010 — 7 percent for ERS and 15 percent for PFRS, for a total of $2.3 billion. - 2011 — 12 percent for ERS and 18 percent for PFRS, for a total of $3.6 billion. - 2012 — 16 percent for ERS and 22 percent for PFRS, for a total of $4.9 billion. - 2013 — 18.9 percent for ERS and 25.8 percent for PFRS, for a total of $5.5 billion. “Municipalities will be able to raise the property tax levy beyond 2 percent without an override because some pension costs are exempt,” said Peter Baynes, executive director of the New York State Conference of Mayors and Municipal Officials. “We have reached the conclusion that pension bills for cities will rise the most, and their exclusions will be the most, and we estimate the actual cap will be between 4 percent and 5 percent.” Baynes said municipalities will be hard pressed to adopt budgets without having to override their tax caps. “But that is not going to happen. What is happening is that municipalities are reducing services. The challenge for local government is to balance the need for essential services with the public’s desire for lower taxes,” he said....................>>>>..........................>>>>................ http://www.dailygazette.com/news/2011/aug/28/0828_pension/

Oh, yeah, now let's go back to the former rep mayor of Schdy, Jurzynski, he proposed a trash fee. What did Stratton and his crony dems say (I think all, or all but one, council rep was dem at that time)? Overwhelmingly they said NO WAY and that was the end of that. But then Stratton becomes mayor, and he "steals" the republican idea and proposes a trash fee saying such a fee will be the saving grace for the city and his 100% dem council--the one party rule--UNANIMOUSLY said YES!!!!!!!!!!!! And then Stratton increased the trash fee already twice since then.....TWICE since he proposed it and his crony dems said yes. And what's worse. The financially struggling homeonwers are paying TWICE for trash collection.....,.FIRST in the property "tax" (that portion that determined by assessment, and SECOND they pay therough the trash "fee" aka tax. I trust you don't believe me SB, would you like me to prove it to you? |

Actually, the appropriate term for them is Blue Dog Democrats, which are not generally accepted across the party. |

And at what rate will their tax increase be? And WHY? Police contracts? Probably. |
