Counties could lose millions if appropriators don’t hurry after Ryan-Murray budget deal
Great coverage for the PILT program in the Washington Post. The PILT program was created in 1976 to offset costs incurred by counties for services provided to federal employees and families, the public and to the users of public lands. These include education, solid waste disposal, law enforcement, search and rescue, health care, environmental compliance, fire fighting, parks and recreation and other important community services. NACo is the only national organization that lobbies Congress on the PILT program.
