Miner certainly won't get it for water and sewer upgrades though I think that is a good use of public funds.  Cuomo basically said this has to help with private projects (or something like that).  She probably won't get anything in any case because she is Miner and we all know they don't like each other...that's the politics baby.

When Cuomo announced the "competition" mid-month...

[I]Onondaga County Executive Joanie Mahoney attended Cuomo's speech today in Rochester, as did mayors from Rochester, Utica, Binghamton and Buffalo. [U]Miner did not attend. She was invited, but had other commitments, said her press secretary, Alexander Marion.[/U][/I]

She has more important things to do.

[I]The model is the Buffalo Billion, under which Cuomo pledged $1 billion in 2012 for economic development in Western New York. Since then, according to the governor's office, the Buffalo region has seen $11.3 billion in regional private investment, the addition of 3,772 jobs and 812 new firms, and a 4 percent increase in total wages.[/I]
