URGENT !

Your help is needed

A call for Action from NYSSA and your new President Mike Fischer:
 Please Forward this to Your Members You already are painfully aware that the Budget Director has swept  $1,000,000.00 from the Snowmobile Trail fund.  Through our lobbyists in  Albany, we were able to find out what had happened. On March 7th, acting in accordance with Section 15 of Part T of Chapter 57  of the Laws of 2007, the Director of the Budget directed the State  Comptroller's office to transfer $100 million in available fund balances  in Miscellaneous Special Revenue accounts to the state's General Fund.  

The decision to transfer these funds was based on the state's worsening  financial condition, the pending Executive Budget (then under review by  the Legislature), and an analysis of the projected cash flows for each  account.  Over 50 different Special Revenue accounts were affected, across > many different agencies and programs.  As part of this transfer of these  funds, $1 million was transferred from the Snowmobile Trail Development  and Management Account (339-41).  While Parks strongly recommended to the  Division of the Budget that this action not be taken, this transfer was  made pursuant to the law and within the authority of the state Budget  Director.

As President of NYSSA, I have sent a letter to the Governor strongly  opposing this sweep of the $1 million from the trail fund and asked  him  to restore these funds.  I also have already called upon all our club  presidents and asked them to send letters to their respective Senators and  Assemblymen. 

We at NYSSA have been working with our lobbyists to take  whatever action necessary to oppose this unwarranted sweep of our money  from the trail fund and to reach out to the Legislature and ask for their  help to correct this intolerable situation.

Tickets will be available at some of our business sponsors or from your club reps. I've already gotten a great response and I'll still need your help in moving these quickly. We need to get this groomer back together ASAP! This money will help offset the costs of track purchases and parts to rebuild the Piston Bully.
