2016 Proposed Budget
City of Albany 2016 Proposed Budget Kathy M. Sheehan, Mayor Ismat Alam, Budget Director CITY OF ALBANY OFFICE OF THE MAYOR 24 EAGLE STREET ALBANY, NEW YORK 12207 TELEPHONE (518) 434-5100 WWW.ALBANYNY.ORG KATHY SHEEHAN MAYOR Dear Common Council Members and Residents of the City of Albany: We are at a crossroads in our City where the future for private sector growth, new housing and public investment has never been brighter, but the fiscal sustainability of the very services that support this growth has never been at graver risk. Starting in 2007, consecutive City budgets included the use of Fund Balance (our “rainy day” fund) to balance the budget. This draining of our reserves occurred even with nearly $8 million in annual “spin up” revenue from the State. The most significant depletion of Fund Balance occurred in the prior administration’s 2014 budget, which did not include a “spin up” from the State. Primarily because of the resulting impact on the City’s reserves, the Office of the New York State Comptroller identified Albany as a City experiencing “Significant Fiscal Distress.” My administration’s first budget included significant cost savings measures and short-term relief from the State in the form of one-time revenue, but still required the use $2 million of Fund Balance to deliver a balanced budget. The State’s revenue relief resulted after the New York State Financial Restructuring Board (FRB) reviewed the City’s finances and recognized the gap between what it costs to provide city services and the revenue available to pay for those services. -

This is approximately 40 mi (64 km) west of Albany at the confluence of the Schoharie Creek and the Mohawk River.

PROPERTY AS GOVERNMENT IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY AMERICA: THE CASE OF NEW YORK CITY HENDRIK HARTOG* INTRODUCTION FOR 150 years it has been the central premise of local government law that legitimate governmental action is always distinctively public in character. The most eminent modem student of local government law has written that: "We know perfectly well, granting that there are inter- mediate hard cases, how to distinguish governmental from nongov- ernmental powers and forms of organization: governments are distin- guished by their acknowledged, lawful authority-not dependent on property ownership-to coerce a territorially
