"The Philippine STAR 05/25/2004
A total of 1,109 new small business shops have emerged nationwide as an offshoot of a new law granting incentives and privileges to barangay-based micro enterprises with assets of less that P3 million.
This was bared by Negros Oriental Rep. Herminio Teves, one of the principal authors of the Barangay Micro Business Enterprise (BMBE) Act of 2002, which supports the development of small manufacturing, processing, trading and service shops through the grant of tax and non-tax benefits.
Teves, meanwhile, downplayed the claim of the Department of Finance that government stands to lose as much as P4."
Ecozone status sought for Nat'l Steel location
From: www.philstar.com
"National Steel Corp. (NSC) has filed an application with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) for the declaration of its location a special economic zone.
If approved, NSC will be entitled to various incentives including tax breaks that will allow the company to pay a lower five-percent income tax in lieu of other taxes that it will otherwise have to pay.
Banking sources said the application is likely to be approved as part of the incentive package that the government had conceded to give the steel company once bailed out by investors."

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. - Gov. Rod Blagojevich says a no-growth state budget would hurt Western Illinois with more than $90 million in lost road projects, $1.6 million in lost school funding and more than 1,300 area people thrown off Medicaid.
Local lawmakers say Blagojevich is using scare tactics in an effort to stampede the General Assembly into approving higher fees and taxes in order to afford higher spending.
The House is scheduled to consider a budget plan today drafted by Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago. The plan does not include lots of fee and tax increases proposed by the governor."

"Taxes jump by $37
By T.K. Demmings
News Gazette correspondent
Colwood taxpayers are looking at a 4.09 per cent increase in their municipal tax bill, in spite of council's earlier pledge to keep tax increases in line with the cost of living.
For the median home, assessed at $243,077, the dollar increase works out to be $37.20 more than last year for a total municipal tax bill of $946.74. The two biggest new expenses are for maintaining Sooke Road, which passed from provincial to municipal hands, and operating Bear Mountain Arena.
The Bear Mountain Arena, approved by referendum, will be shown as a separate line item on each tax bill."
