Pataki budget ups Centro aid to record level
Governor Pataki proposed a 2001-21 budget that would boost Centro's operating funds to 16.1 million, a 34 percent increase, enabling expansion of routes including Salina to Carrier Circle and East Syracuse industrial areas. The plan raises statewide mass transit aid by 120 million to 1.7 billion, with many upstate systems gaining but Rochester’s bus company not. Centro expects the higher funds to cover rising fuel costs and offset reduced mortgage tax receipts while facing a 29 million operating budget with 16.1 million state support.
