County Law Amendments Submitted for County Government Reform
Amendments to the Alternative Form of County Government Law were sent to the Legislature by the Commission on Uniform County Law. Assemblyman Allan P. Sill expects swift passage. Senator Samuel L. Greenberg has a companion Senate bill. A major change would require referendums in odd numbered years to avoid presidential or gubernatorial clashes, delaying Onondaga County’s vote if not held this fall until 1955. The changes, largely technical, were suggested by Onondaga officials at a Syracuse hearing last year.
