Mayor backs PASNY study of steam plant proposal
Mayor Lee Alexander urged the city to accept PASNY's offer to study and potentially build a garbage burning steam plant at the State Fairgrounds at PASNY expense. The plan would reduce local costs, avoid intergovernmental rivalry, and sidestep county misgivings about private operation and expertise. Salina officials backed PASNY, arguing county plans risk higher costs and complexity.

Heath Park in Syracuse Faces No Development Plans Forever Wild
A reader argues Heath Park should remain protected as Syracuse’s sole “forever wild” asset, noting local officials resisted proposals to replace parts of the park with a shopping center or fast food outlet.
