Mamaroneck Mayor Takes Village Board To Court To Restore His Authority

In a rare legal maneuver, Mamaroneck Mayor Norman Rosenblum is asking a Supreme Court judge to issue a "show cause" order after the village board sided 3-2 against him last month. In a court motion filed this week , the Republican mayor accused the village board majority of overstepping its government bounds by stripping him of his prior authority to make appointments -- among other mayoral functions.
