City "Exceeds Projections" For Tax Amnesty Program

Mayor Nutter's administration just announced that its tax amnesty program has exceeded projections for bringing in much-needed cash. But we have to wait until Tuesday to find out how much was raised in the program, which ended a week ago. The goal, as set by the city when the program started on May 3, was $30 million. City officials said the program drew strong interest, perhaps because of the expected consequences for those who didn't pay up.
