The state Association of Counties has updated its Web site with an economic report called Economy Watch, which includes a range of economic indicators for local governments.
“The state of our current economy is floundering and foreboding,” said NYSAC Executive Director Stephen J. Acquario. “End of year layoff announcements indicate New York will lose more than 12,000 in the first three months of 2009. These are not just statistics on a chart. These job losses affect families, and have a real and direct impact to our state and local economies. Clearly, state and local leaders must ramp up efforts to retain and attract jobs to New York.”
The first edition includes a jobs report. The site will be updated each month.
