A
A
A
One
of
the
things
that
we
do
at
the
city,
which
is
unique
and
different
from
other
municipalities,
is
that
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
collects
taxes
for
the
city
and
for
the
school
district
of
Pittsburgh,
and
there
is
a
question
and
answer
period
at
the
end
of
this
session
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
or
challenges.
You
may
have
about
tax
efficiency
in
Pittsburgh
tax
rates
in
Pittsburgh,
or
anything
like
that.
There
are
a
number
of
taxes
that
you
would
probably
be
basically
interested
in
property
tax
is
one
usually
call
it
real
estate
tax.
A
The
rest
of
the
world
calls
it
property
tax.
We
have
earned
income
tax,
which
is
an
individual
tax
for
individuals
who
are
employed,
not
necessarily
something
you
need
to
worry
about,
except
as
an
agent
for
collection.
And
finally,
there
is
the
point:
five
five
percent
tax
on
payrolls,
which
is
a
replacement
for
the
old
business
and
mercantile
taxes
that
we
used
to
have
so
the
city
essentially
does
not
have
business
taxes
in
any
traditional
sense,
anymore,
I'm,
not
going
to
say
a
lot
more
because
I
want
you
to
get
through
the
rest
of
the
speakers.
A
They're
going
to
talk
about
things,
nice
things
like
making
your
place
nicer
and
prettier
and
getting
permits,
and
things
like
that.
My
function
really
is
to
make
sure
that
we
collect
the
necessary
revenue
so
that
we
can
do
all
of
the
other
things.
The
city
is
required
to
do
my
personal
objective
with
that
is,
if
somebody
does
not
pay
their
tax,
we
pay
their
tax
for
them.
So
it's
important
that
there's
fairness
and
tax
that
there
is
ease
of
collection,
that
you
understand.
A
Why
and
what
you
are
paying
as
easily
as
possible
and
if
you
have
any
questions,
please
just
come
into
the
department,
we're
on
the
first
floor
and
the
second
floor
of
this
building
feel
free
to
ask
any
questions
you
want.
We
also
respond
to
email
phone
calls
and
you
can
twitter
some
of
the
people,
but
a
lot
of
us.
You
can
probably
simply
text
so
I'll.
Let
the
rest
of
them
pick
up
and
talk.
