Should the recession continue, it will definately have a negaitve impact on the budget, by lost tax dollars. Some measures to be taken would be keeping all overtime hours to a bare minimum. also looking to do more things in house, such as maintance. Also applying for every single grant possible and try to get tax dollars back into the city.

One impact affecting New Carlisle's budget would be the effect it would have on our city and real estate taxes. Our council and management has been proactive in holding down costs of operation. We have secured numerous grants and will continue to do so. Our council and management has saved on payroll expenses by not replacing some positions. This has not reflected negatively on the essential services for residents. We will continue to monitor costs. | ||

Recent annexations and the establishment of Enterprise Zones will give us the opportunity to attract business. We will continue to apply for grant money to enable us to make improvements without further burden to our citizens.

The recent experience of overcoming fiscal watch status, while unfortunate, will seve us well in the future. | ||

The fiscal health of New Carlisle is currently good. We have effectively taken a budget deficit and transformed our city into a fiscally stable, future-focused community. Essential services including public safety, sanitation, public health, and fire/EMS are provided and will continue to be guaranteed through the existing proactive strategies such as reciprocal relationships with the Clark County Combined Health District and the Clark County Sheriff’s Office. I look forward to assisting you on the Council. | ||

School, City and Federal Government feel the impact of current budget cuts and the need to conserve. I believe my many years on various boards will help in understanding and planning for future needs. Times have definitely changed, our present Council and Administration have made changes to meet the needs of the City and their citizens and we need to continue. I will rely on their experience and also that of the citizens. | ||
