Yesterday the New York Post ran a letter to the editor written by LRANY’s Scott Hobson, in response to an article discussing a proposal for a “super control board’’ that could take over the finances of municipalities on the verge of bankruptcy.
An excerpt:
“Fred Dicker’s recent article highlighting proposals for the creation of a “super control board” to take over the finances of struggling local governments is a timely reminder that New York’s fiscal woes are far from over (“$tate Takeover, Aug. 6).
But lawmakers haven’t been looking at the whole picture.”
