New Castle Council mulls wage freezes and subsidies
City leaders discussed freezing 2007 wages for department heads to save about 15,700 and possibly halting automatic raises for mayor, controller, and treasurer. They also consider cutting the New Castle Area Transit Authority subsidy from 103,045 to 25,000 over six years and turning off every other downtown street light at night to save money. Switching electricity to First Energy Solutions could save about 21,000, with projected costs dropping from 608,103 under Penn Power to 586,882.
