Well, we knew it was coming, and now it's here. Gov. Malloy has finally admitted defeat regarding his negotiations with the state employees' unions, and now he's gonna pull that $1 billion for FY 2011-12 from elsewhere. Most likely some of it will come from aid to municipalities. In April, the figure the gov's office said that Hebron stood to lose was $2.5 million. Whether or not it will come down to that much is anyone's guess. But we will most likely lose SOME portion of our state funding. What will happen then? Will Hebron taxpayers be asked to pony up the additional money through property taxes? Or will our town leaders look for places to make reductions? We are already looking at a 4.5% increase per the recently-passed referendum. Can we afford more than that? I know I can't.

So he's got his "concessions." Said he wouldn't agree to anything less than $2 billion, and it's only $1.6--but whatever. Will the rank-and-file agree to them? Hard to say. They have been negotiated by their "representatives" to a position between a rock and a hard place. Vote "yes" and take a double hit (most of them are members of the middle class who face state tax increases, just like the rest of us). Vote "no" and face massive layoffs and vilification by the residents of CT. If they don't vote them in, we are back to square one. Will aid to municipalities go back on the chopping block?
