City Councilman Sal DiCiccio has warned that Phoenix residents could see significant property and other tax increases – or face service cuts – in the budget being prepared for the 2018-19 fiscal year that begins July 1 and has called for a curtailment in light-rail expansion plans.
The warning came after a city council hearing last week in which city officials disclosed that they face as much as a $5-billion deficit because of the unfunded pension liability for retired police and firefighters.
