EXCLUSIVE: NYS Comptroller DiNapoli Asserts Yonkers Budget in Compliance with State Requirements BY Hezi Aris

 YONKERS, NY, July 28, 2010 -- Yonkersites have truly suffered not knowing of Yonkers prospects vis-a-vis earning New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli’s approval. Mr DiNapoli sent a letter dated July 26, 2010, assigning his review and testifying that all “the Justification Documents are in material compliance with the requirements of the Act and the Ordinance.”  The terse two paragraph statement attests to the fact that we are in the midst of the campaign season. Mr DiNapoli has no warning or suggestion to offer Yonkers lack of planning and mismanagement of its financial state of affairs.
