CANTON â Following an hour-long discussion, St. Lawrence County legislators on Monday night voted against a resolution in support of Ogdensburgâs home rule legislation that would allow the city to collect up to an additional 1% of sales tax revenue.
Legislator David W. Forsythe, R-Lisbon, proposed the resolution at the full county Board of Legislators meeting on July 12, but it was tabled until the boardâs next Finance Committee meeting, which was Monday night. Mr. Forsythe successfully motioned to remove his resolution from the table Monday night, yet the resolution had no further luck in the Finance Committee as legislators ultimately voted 9-4 against it after back-and-fourth discussion.
