Officials in Buffalo, the second-largest city in New York, were already preparing to borrow $18 million to keep them in the black after the novel coronavirus caused municipal revenues—from parking meters to sales tax—to shrivel.
But when word came from Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration that a $98.4 million state grant due on June 25 would be about $20 million short, the city raised its borrowing plans by 50%.
Good, Don't forget to vote Democrat this NOVEMBER and you can have more, much more of the same
buffalo needs to shrink just like Detroit
Cuomo couldn’t even manage the state in good economic times. I would have more respect if Cuomo actively campaigned against DeBlasio’s second term since it is well known DeBlasio is a failed pandering mayor. Instead, it’s all talk from Cuomo.
It's only going to get worse - wealthy people & companies will leave NYC, along with a good chunk of it's tax base due to rising crime, so there will be cuts upstate!
Cuomo is a disaster.
Dem dump
