Prendergast questions state tax need amid Whitman figures
Controller William A Prendergast challenged Governor Whitman’s plan, saying a direct tax of 18 million may not be required this year while admitting possible partial provision. He cites 27 million excess sinking fund payments and notes canal needs and prior administrations’ tax shortfalls as key factors behind the state’s fiscal strain.
