Maryland Should Move Toward Pay as You Go Financing
The state faces high bond costs with 15 year issues now at about 1.10 per dollar borrowed and an 11.1 percent low bid. Maryland spends roughly 350 million annually on interest and principal for past bonds, straining finances. Revenues lag, federal aid could drop, and new tax laws may cut 215 million over five years. The Spending Affordability Committee backs a 10 year phase in of a major naval construction shift to reduce bond reliance, freeing funds for hospitals, schools and offices. The governor should set aside a pay as you go kitty and raise it yearly, with legislative action to make pay as you go permanent.
