Court of Appeals of New York


Mayor of the City of N.Y.v. Council of the City of N.Y., 69

Mayor's challenge to validity of two local laws, passed by the City Council over his veto, that give certain fire department employees the status of "uniformed" fire service members for collective bargaining purposes is rejected as: 1) the local laws are not preempted by State law; and 2) the Council had the power to enact them without a referendum.
