Mulroy warns statutory tax plan would destroy Syracuse
County Executive John H Mulroy warns that adopting the statutory limit based sales tax plan would devastate the city of Syracuse while promising the county and towns some gains. He notes the plan could force a renegotiated contract and accuses city leaders of misleading about costs. Mulroy hopes for a negotiated deal with Mayor Alexander and cites Rock Cut Road plant as a potential bargaining chip and lower future disposal costs. Taxes, he says, seek their own level and balance out.
