The county budget blues Exec suggests 3.95 tax increase U. S. leaders differ on Israeli bombing By Mike Hill Journal Times RACINE Executive Leonard Ziolkowski says his proposal to hike the county part of 1986 property taxes 3.95 percent is the smallest increase in a decade. Under the executive's proposal, the general county tax levy rate would go from $4.08 to $4.28 per $1,000 equalized value. Taxes on a $60,000 home would county.

Also figured into the budget, Ziolkowski said. -are loan repayment funds for Racine harbor improvements that include reconstruction of North Pier and the harbor entrance. If the county board hadn't limited the 1986 tax levy hike to the 4 percent inflation rate; Ziolkowksi said he wouldn't have eliminated funding for Racine Countv Planning Council services, which got $56,954 this year. He said he also would have provided more money for out-of-county jailings and office automation effwptnent that could save monpp. in the long run.

"I feel Mr. Ziolkowski was faced with difficult choices." Helen Underwood, planning council executive director, said today. She said the agency 's board is going to appeal the funding cut and its members believe the council's work is important to the community. Adjusting for inflation, county property taxes have gone up 27.4 percent since 1976, Ziolkowski said. He said county taxes could go up at least 5.2 percent in 1987 or there could be a major reduction in services because the county is expected to less in federal revenue sharing funds in 1987.

As Ziolkowski said last month, the county still has some major financial difficulties wifli continued high unemployment, and skyrocketing-crime and welfare costs. General relief law enforcement and jail costs will eat up 39 percent of county taxes next year, he said.

Although the county is seeking employee pay cuts and wage freezes, Ziolkowski said funds have been budgeted for a "very modest" pay hike for some bargaining units. Ziolkowski's budget calls for 10.9 new, full-time equivalent jobs and eliminations of 28 jobs, mostly at High Ridge Health Care Center, being phased out. For jailing prisoners out of county, Ziolkowski proposes budgeting $250,000 next-year, although this year's costs may total as much as $350,000 and only $30,000 was budgeted. His plan is to have a larger contingency account of $500,000 in case out-of-county jailings go over budget, he said. Ziolkowski said his budget includes funding for youth counseling services and group home services at the 1985 level only through August, to give officials time to find alternatives to sending kids to institutions at great cost to the Leonard Ziolkowski 1 987 looks worse Paul Robert.
