|
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/01/2014 10:25 AM

Washington, DC...Hi everybody. In my State of the Union Address, I said that the best measure of opportunity is access to a good job. And after the worst recession of our lifetimes, our businesses have created eight and a half million new jobs in the last four years. But we need to do more to make America a magnet for good jobs for the future. And in this year of action, where Congress won’t do that, I will do whatever I can to expand opportunity for more Americans. This week, I took two actions to attract new jobs to America – jobs in American manufacturing, and jobs rebuilding America’s infrastructure...

Board Tackles Budget Issues |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 02/26/2014 08:46 PM
|
San Andreas, CA....Yesterday the Calaveras County Board of Supervisors received their mid year budget update. Needless to say they have quite a bit of digging to find revenue and savings to get things to balance out. Maintaining core and expected services while plugging and patching budget holes will be a reoccurring theme the next few months. Possible solutions suggested were a trip down paths that were not taken before or taken and proved less than rewarding the first or second time. The first place to look for savings will be the biggest, discretionary budget area which is staff. There seemed to be a consensus that a straight across the board budget cut may not be the best approach and some plan of induced retirements to coax the senior and more costly staffers to enter the next chapter of their lives is expected. Raising sales taxes, increasing the TOT tax and other approaches for increased revenue that have been rejected in the past will probably be freshened up and presented as 2014 solutions as well....
