Wall Street Journal Opinion Piece Says To Lower Property Taxes
POSTED July 6, 11:53 PM
I just read this piece in the Wall Street Journal.  It uses some harsh words to describe Baltimore but it does make some good points.  I liked this quote:

"True enough, the ability to hand out subsidies gives officials great power. But it also gives them a reason, and incentive, to dismiss the common sense that if tax breaks for the well-connected are a good idea, lower tax rates across the board would lead to broad-based redevelopment."

Our leaders give tremendous tax breaks and discounts to developers (who sometimes buy them shoes) and then promise us 2-cent property tax cuts that never come.  The average citizen needs a property tax break before there are no average citizens left!

On a related note, Councilman Bill Cole sent this email out on June 16th:

"As you may have read in the Sun recently, I have been working to find a way to pay for the 2 cent property tax decrease that had been promised to Baltimore residents for 2008. Although I do support Mayor Dixon in her work to move Baltimore forward and I respect her safety, green, and clean initiatives, I cannot support her decision to postpone the planned two-cent property tax decrease this year. After a careful analysis of the proposed city budget, I determined that we could make specific budget cuts that would allow us to keep the promised property tax reduction without affecting city services.

After conversations with my Council colleagues, the Administration, and the Council President, it was abundantly clear that there would not be 8 votes to support my amendment to reduce the tax rate.  In fact, the only amendment to the budget related to a tax cut garnered two votes, one of which was mine.

Recognizing that we will have a critical problem in this City if we do not immediately address the burdensome property tax rate, Council President Stephanie Rawlings-Blake announced today the creation of a Council Committee on Property Tax Reduction.  I will be chairing this new committee which will also include the Chair of the Budget Committee, Jack Young, and the Chair of the Taxation Committee, Helen Holton."

Excluding the comments about Dixon, this is a good email.  I don't think I have ever read an email from a city official that mentioned "budget cuts".  Jim Kraft was the other councilman who joined Bill Cole in supporting the tax cutting related amendment  by the way.  I really hope this new committee comes up with some  tax cutting ideas and moves forward in implementing them.  I hope the process is not a sham like the blue ribbon panel ended up being (the members of that panel may have had good intentions but I feel the Mayor used it for an election year stunt).  Since Bill Cole is in charge (and not Jack Young) I have confidence that something new and productive actually may come out of this.

Ringleader Of The Hunger Strike Kids is Paid $120k A Year
POSTED June 19, 3:32 PM
Stephen Janis and Luke Broadwater of the Baltimore Examiner need to be applauded for this excellent piece of investigative journalism. Mayor Dixon and Jack Young also deserve shout outs for standing their ground and not giving this organization the money they were trying to guilt out of the Baltimore budget.

Here is what Luke and Stephen uncovered:
Safe & Sound’s 2006 tax records showed nearly $1 million in overhead costs including:
  • $437,000 to consultants
  • $341,000 for marketing
  • $156,031 for travel including trips to Seattle, Savannah, Ga., Chicago and Boston
  • $120,000 salary of the group’s executive director, Hathaway Ferebee.
  • Tax returns for 2007 are not available.
In theory the organization could use some money but they can not ask the tax payers for money until they get their financial act together and learn how to budget correctly.  Would you want to give money to an organization that is supposedly helping kids learn when the leader is taking in $120k a year while (according to Wikipedia) the median income for a household in the city was $30,078, and the median income for a family was $35,438?
 
Some Leaders Refuse Raises
POSTED June 11, 11:57 PM
At least in West Virginia.

In Baltimore it's a different story.  Some think they "deserve" raises.

Company Involved In Gambling Bust Contributed To These Politicians
POSTED May 22, 10:44 AM
Apparently the owner of a company that had about 150 "gaming machines" in numerous locations in Baltimore County gave close to $40,000 to local politicians including Gov. Martin O'Malley, Comptroller Peter Franchot, and Mayor Sheila Dixon.  Those three leaders are thinking about returning the contributions now.  Below is a list of Baltimore City Council related politicians who have received money from Carbond.  Jack Young and Bob Curran show up yet again...

District 12: Bernard "Jack" Young
POSTED April 25, 12:49 PM
It appears that Councilman (and Johns Hopkins employee) Jack Young has replied to an entry of mine below.  Check out my property tax entry and read the comments section where he says: "I deserve a raise just like everybody else".   In honor of this occasion I have decided to start a series about members of  Baltimore City Council.  The series will start next week with  Councilman Young.  Below is a little teaser. It is video footage from the once bustling Oldtown Mall in Young's 12th district.
