Whacking the Wicks Law Whips Up Support. Communities Back Feiner Initiative Posted on Friday, January 31 @ 17:01:44 EST by jfbailey

WPCNR THE GREENBURGH GAZETTE. By Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner. (EDITED) January 31, 2003:The Dobbs Ferry, Lakeland & Bedford School districts have sent Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner letters indicating their support of the efforts to repeal the cumbersome and wasteful wicks law ------ a state mandate which requires governments and school districts to overpay when they construct or renovate government/school buildings. Some localities overspend by as much as 30%.

Feiner is organizing an aggressive lobbying effort to repeal the Wicks Law and has contacted Assemblyman Richard Brodsky & State Senator Nick Spano requesting that they introduce legislation in Albany to exemptGreenburgh from the provisions of this law.

In his proposed 2003 Budget, Governor George Pataki proposes repealing the Wicks Law.
