Portland Resident Donates Federal Tax Rebate to City Budget Shortfall

4/17/2008 7:55:03 AM - Upon learning of the City’s budget cuts, Charles Leary, a Portland resident, contacted City Hall to donate his federal rebate. “As a Portland resident, I place a lot of value on the services provided by the City. I believe that the challenges we face are driven by a troubled economy strained by policies and agendas set outside the state, which is why I intend to donate my federal rebate to the City. I encourage other members of the community to join me in helping save these programs.”
