Municipal Assistance Corporation

The Municipal Assistance Corporation is a state entity designed to bring the city out of the 1970's fiscal crisis. MAC has the ability to issue bonds backed by a dedicated portion of the city's sales tax. The proceeds from such bonds are used by the city. MAC refinanced its bonds when the interest rates dropped, but the tax revenue was/is still arriving, so a surplus arose. MAC uses these funds as bait, getting the city to adopt various cost saving measures or invest in particular areas. Over the years, MAC has pushed for funding the Transit Authorities capital program.
