That is like 10 days before the state adopts its budget. Not much time to go and face off with state officials. It will be done by then. Why so late.
I guess he was told by cuomo to come out with the bad news late so no one can react.
Back into the cone of silence till the twentieth?

Good evening, we are in a financial crisis and can't rely on NYS to help us anymore..wink. We all need to share this burden..wink. That's why I'm asking all city dept. heads to find 5% in expenditure reductions..wink. So, we can move our city forward confidently into a new direction..wink.wink.wink.
By the way, look at the recent sales tax figures at record highs. NYS will need all funds for the new $6 billion TPZ bridge......

Maybe he should follow the gag order he is trying to impose on civil servants. He talks BS every time he opens his mouth.

He'll do an Amicone. Everything is wonderful in Yonkers, but we need to raise taxes to pay for all those huge salaries we dole out without ever counting the cost.
