County Officials Debate City County Consolidation
At the 23d Community Leadership Conference at Syracuse University Sagamore Center county executives led a panel on metropolitan government Onondaga County. Mulroy said inflation and service costs slow consolidation while supporting a city county tax appraisal and potential county police in the future. Canino urged reassessment and consolidation of school districts and municipal finance departments to lower borrowing costs. ONeil warned the public may not be ready for merger but called for consensus and ego submersion. A two tier form was discussed in Monroe County with tomorrow focusing on merging law enforcement and youth services in Onondaga County.
