County studies cemetery for veterans
Onondaga County legislators will study the feasibility of a county owned veterans cemetery. Chair Nicholas J. Pirro appointed Legislator Jack Haley to lead a five member panel as Cuomo opposes a state run burial ground. Pirro notes federal funds could match local spending, and four of five NY national cemeteries are near capacity. An estimated 15 to 20 county veterans would be served locally each year.
