City seeks state supervision over released mental patients
The Appellate Division of the New York State Supreme Court ruled unanimously that Long Beach may sue to force Albany to supervise hundreds of mental patients housed in the city. Long Beach says 600 to 700 former patients were released to the area, increasing municipal costs and straining services. The court held the case may proceed, allowing the city to challenge sovereign immunity and compel state agencies to comply with their laws.

Five year NYC plan aims to lure business with tax breaks
New York City unveils a five year recovery program led by Mayor Abraham Beame. It foresees more than 50 items including a property tax freeze for five years and targeted business tax credits. The plan aims to create up to 130,000 jobs if business response is strong. Beame notes the freeze aligns with the end of the current fiscal plan in 1978. US officials in Washington urge self help with existing loan programs.
