City faces budget crunch and tax changes in 2004 plan
The city projects about 2 million in taxes by 2005 and 2.6 million by 2006 as 2004 outcome shows a $292 million budget gap. A $500,000 to $750,000 carryover remains possible, but 2005 funding will be greatly reduced. The York International closure and cuts to inheritance tax and local government funds drive the squeeze. City Council debates a tax credit cut amid concerns over voter support for a 0.5 percent income tax renewal.
