EDWARD M. PA L USO, COMMISSIONERS Commissioner Petrosky stated that it was his understanding that Assistant Solicitor Kathy Emery was trying to resolve this matter with the Controller. Chairman Mascara stated that if the situation is of an emergency nature, that possibly a mandamus action would have to be filed. Acting Deputy Controller Edna Dorisio stated that payments to all garages combined amount to over $20,000.00 and that Controller Beharry believes that these purchases should be bid.
