New York’s Nassau County, whose finances are under the control of a state oversight board, can avoid more job and service cuts next year if unions agree to $60 million in concessions, its manager said.

“If these concessions are not met, additional layoffs and service cuts will occur,” County Executive Edward Mangano said yesterday in his State of the County address. “Rather than place their membership on the unemployment line, our public-employee unions should do the right thing and agree to renegotiate their contracts,” he said.
