  • City of Wilkes-Barre

    Wilkes-Barre, PA
    Budget

    Mayor George C. Brown's 2025 budget address for the City of Wilkes-Barre identifies two major fiscal challenges: the potential loss of approximately $750,000 in annual real estate tax revenue from Commonwealth Health Wilkes-Barre General Hospital and an over 11% increase in employee healthcare costs. To offset these challenges, the administration expects increased construction and building permit revenue from major development projects including the Wright Center expansion, Meyers High School renovation into apartments and retail, the First National Bank Building purchase, and Sphere International's mixed-use development, along with anticipated increases in Earned Income Tax. The budget emphasizes cost-cutting measures in overtime and contract work, continued staffing priorities for Fire, Police, and DPW departments, infrastructure improvements including $1.1 million in Solomon's Creek flood protection and $1.5 million for Brookside Levee protection, and quality-of-life initiatives such as community policing programs and street repairs.

The fiscal note estimates a negative impact to General Revenue Related Funds ranging from ($63.7 million) to ($211.7 million) through August 31, 2019, depending on payment schedule scenarios, with costs escalating significantly through 2022 to approximately ($1.1 billion) annually while the Foundation School Fund would receive corresponding increases. The bill would require no appropriation but could provide the legal basis for appropriations and would necessitate adding 22 to 40 state employees through fiscal year 2022.
