County Passes Contingency Budget Anchored by 14.8% Property Tax Increase. Posted on Tuesday, February 11 @ 23:20:58 EST by jfbailey

WPCNR COUNTY CLARION-LEDGER. February 11, 2003: Westchester County's Board of Legislators voted 9 to 5 Tuesday evening to increase property taxes 14.8% and enact $10 Million in spending cuts to balance the county budget for 2003.

The budget cuts $3.6 Million in county pay raises, eliminates $2 Million in funding for private and public organizations, and $1.9 Million from the District Attorney's budget. Fifty-nine layoffs are planned and 300 jobs will be cut. Other areas reportedly cut include legal aid, day care, and drug treatment programs. No county police cuts are planned.
