Seeking a $51 million federal economic recovery package, Mayor Robert Duffy on Tuesday detailed a wide-ranging list of "ready-to-go" capital projects that could create 2,000 jobs in 2009.
The city's 27 items are among 1,900 projects totaling $11.7 billion compiled by state officials so far. Gov. David Paterson noted the overall number, not the projects specifically, in a letter sent this week to President-elect Barack Obama. New York and other states are lining up for Obama's planned federal stimulus package. Estimates vary on how large the stimulus might be. Paterson's letter outlined an $800 billion national plan. http://tinyurl.com/8f3c8z * Looks like my birthplace Rochester, NY is preparing for Obama money.
