The story lists several reasons for the shortfall in revenue, but this is the most startling: "Fines and forfeiture revenues for the year were expected to come in around $105,000, but halfway through the year only $11,220 has been received, with an $82,000 shortfall expected by the end of the year." Huh?....The Register-Star reports that Republican and Conservative John Porreca will face Democrat Donald Moore to replace Hudson Common Council President John Cody, who is not seeking re-election....The Shamrock House of East Durham may face be auctioned off due to a foreclosure caused by the sub-prime mortgage crisis, Dick May reports in his Seeing Greene blog....Greene County may lose $700,000 in tax revenue they have already budgeted because of the New York State's Senate's continued play-acting, according to The Daily Mail.
