Here comes the property tax hike!

From the NY Post:

The City Council would have to raise property taxes to fund retroactive pay increases for municipal workers — and that’s going to happen, Mayor Bloomberg said yesterday.

The mayor was reacting to a report by the Independent Budget Office that said the next mayor could be facing a tab of more than $5.4 billion if unsettled union contracts are negotiated after Bloomberg leaves and include retroactive pay hikes.

did your councilperson vote to empty your wallet ?

That's very true!

Do you voters follow your city council member's VOTING RECORD as closely as you take notice of their photo ops?
