Indy Budget 101

A less than two weeks the city of  Indianapolis will unveil its budget.  I’ll be writing about this over the course of the next few weeks, but here is a cop of the adopted budget for 2012  so we all have a frame of reference to work from.  Note: public safety (IMPD, IFD, MCSD, Courts) all make up about 85%  of city-county expenditures.

     About $140,000, which was less than the $180,000 the Council Democrats wanted to spend to redistrict, even though they privately admit there is nothing wrong with the current maps.  And by the way, the Mayor’s budget is smaller today (with the raises) than it was in 2009.

    Abdul, that $140K is for ONE year….once these raises are granted, they are very difficult to ‘reduce’ down the road.

    These people are making HUGE raises.  Why do they deserve such generous largesse ??

    I wonder why they afford to spend $140,000.
    Seems it doesn’t make sense at all. but the major buddies are really concern about
    the real fact.
