Clarkstown Town Budget Disaster

I attended a workshop last month conducted by the Town Council where the Director of Finance presented a forecast of the Town of Clarkstown's 4 year financial plan. I was shocked to learn that in 2014 the budget forecasts a -$1.5 Million deficit and the combined deficits forecasted for the next four years totals -$36.8 million. The Town Council and Supervisor are accountable to develop ways to cut the expense and capital budgets and to NOT finance these deficits on the backs of Clarkstown taxpayers.
