New York State Dedicates $1.1 Billion to Future of I-81
The New York State budget includes a $32.8 billion plan to improve state roads and highways, and $1.1 billion of that has been allotted to the Community Grid project. The Community Grid, which is expected to be approved by the federal government this spring, is planned to replace a 1.4 mile elevated stretch of highway that runs through Downtown Syracuse. Construction is projected to begin by the end of the year.

Alcohol To-Go to Return
Those who enjoyed being able to order alcohol to-go during the first few months of the pandemic will be happy about a new provision, just introduced in the 2023 New York State budget. During the pandemic, being able to include alcohol with takeout meals provided a lifeline for restaurants and a comfort for customers. To help support continued economic revitalization, the state budget includes a provision to bring back alcohol to-go for the next three years, and the New York State Liquor Authority recently released guidance to help restauranteurs understand what is permitted. Alcohol must be sold in a sealed container – and contents of a bottle of wine and/or liquor can not be transferred into a same or equivalent bottle. Food of substance – such as sandwiches, salads, hotdogs, wings, and “meals” – must be ordered to accompany the alcohol. A bag of chips, candy, or a handful of nuts are not permitted. Restaurant owners will be unable to serve full bottles of alcohol to customers.
