Senate Overturns Mayor Veto On City Bills
Albany June 5. The Senate passed two New York City related measures vetoed by Mayor McClellan.

The Grady bill requires reserving a large space in the new Hall of Records for old county records. Grady supported the Mayor on this session. The Grady bill was enacted over the Mayor’s veto by a wide margin.
