Cool stuff at another local blog

There’s some exciting stuff going on over at DragonFlyEye. Carla Palumbo is now blogging there and you can read her post here. Here’s a snippet:

We also see some other issues with the budget – there is an increase in the tax levy – so that even though the County Administration is “lowering” the tax rate, people are paying more in taxes. Another little trick in this budget is that the County plans to sell delinquent tax liens — a one shot deal that will result in the County loses future income. The Budget, also gives the Sports Development Corporation $82,500 and the Greater Rochester Sports Authority $285,000 from the Hotel/Motel tax. Although we continue to ask we have not gotten a straight answer as to what this money is used for and why this money isn’t used to pay for the rent that they budget as revenue, but never collect Frontier Field.

A Public Hearing on the budget is scheduled for December 6, 2007 at 6 PM at the same time as the Ways and Means committee. Take a look at the budget online here stop into the hearing and have your say! Call 585-753-1950 to sign up to speak.
