Zimmer bill would abolish solid waste authority
A Republican backed bill to abolish Onondaga County Solid Waste Disposal Authority and create a county resource recovery agency advances in Albany. The measure, to be introduced in the Assembly by Melvin Zimmer, mirrors a Senate version by Tarky Lombardi Jr. It would establish an 11 member board with the mayor limited to two appointees, shift control to the county executive and legislature, and wind down the existing authority by April 1, 1982. The political move targets Mayor Lee Alexander and aligns Lombardi with Zimmer against prior opponents.
