SALES TAX REVENUE CRISIS
The Onondaga County sales tax distribution resolution
(allowing for the distribution of a portion of county sales tax to
the village) will expire on December 31, 2010. The County
Legislature voted on the renewal of the sales tax agreement on May
4, 2010. Beginning January 2011, villages sales tax revenue will be
less than half of what we are currently receiving. The Village of
Liverpool currently receives approximately $570,000. We will receive
approximately $281, 200 for the next ten years.
As more information is available from the County
Sales Tax Committee, the Village of Liverpool will schedule a public
hearing for community input.
