December 2011 Helping Pennsylvania Taxing Districts Hit By Unpaid Property Taxes Generate New Revenue For Their Budgets Since 2003 As leaders in public education, school directors and administrators need to embrace lifelong learning. The Pennsylvania School Boards Association (PSBA) offers conferences, workshops and seminars to fill this need. Founded in 1895, the PSBA has a rich history as the first school boards association established in the United States. Municipal Revenue Service is pleased to have once again attended and had a booth at the PSBA School Leadership Conference,  October, 2011, in Hershey, PA. A big THANK YOU to our current clients and the many new prospects that paid a visit to the MRS booth this year. As a result, we have already scheduled several meetings as we see interest in the MRS program continue to grow. I look forward to making new friends and working again with established clients as we walk through the process of providing school districts with instant revenue using our tax lien sale system. "MRS is not a tax collector. They are someone that is there to help the District financially with cash flow. Is this a good program? Yes, I believe it's a good program. For cash flow, and finances on behalf of the District, we know that there's a certain amount of money coming in annually. With the way the economy is these days, we know we're getting our money up front." Vincent Belczyk Business Manager Uniontown Area School District School Money Matters Online Newsletter From Municipal Revenue Service MRS Program, & Slot Machines, a Winner With PSBA School Leadership Conference Attendees   presented by Jeff Spaulding, MRS Associate As Districts face uncertainty in their budgets, the MRS I-PORTAL program can help bring a new revenue source and stability to one segment of your budgeting process. Your delinquent real-estate tax receivables can be converted into immediate revenue. This will help to keep your receivables, budget and cash flow consistent. And as we always point out..."we are NOT tax collectors". We do NOT change the local collection process or add any costs or fees onto the taxpayer. Visit our web site at www.municipalrevenues.com for more information about the I-PORTAL program. While you're there, check out our new video, complete with testimonials from industry peers.  Let us know how we can be of service to your District. You will be pleasantly surprised how simple the process can be. Everybody Wants GREEN. Okay, We'll Give You GREEN. ©2011 Municipal Revenue Service Contact Us Click Here for MRS Website Click Here for Newsletter Directory Municipal Revenue Service Releases New Program Presentation / Testimonial Video  "Based on the way the governor was changing their view on education funding, we wanted to take a proactive approach. I can’t say enough about the MRS program. It has really helped us through this tough budget cycle, and I anticipate it’s going to help us through the next couple of budget cycles, so I look forward to more years of good transactions with the MRS." Matt Przywara Chief Financial & Operations Officer School District of Lancaster  click to    see video Green energy, green buildings, green, green, green. This is the direction that School Districts and Municipalities across the country are taking up with great success. All very sound and wise objectives that often come with varying degrees of added up front costs years before a return on these investments is even realized.  Now, how to pay for it!? Let the Municipal Revenue Services I-PORTAL program help you with some of the upfront costs by using the "new" revenue generated from selling your delinquent real-estate tax receivables.  Most new green energy projects require up front engineering or other costs to get the project started. As the project moves forward, often the added costs to go green may outweigh what is perceived to be a good idea initially, and the green benefits are dropped. The I-PORTAL program is designed to provide a District with an initial shot of new revenue and maintain future budgeted receivables at their current level.  Our client list shown on our web site will bear out what we say. Give a few of your peers a call then schedule a meeting with a MRS representative. You will be very surprised how easy and open we are about our program.
