I am missing something in the Brooklyn Eagle article. How do you vote?

The layoffs are step 1 in closing it down, which is just what's going to happen notwithstanding the alleged settlement. As I wrote in a longish prior comment, it was all smoke and fury with no long lasting result and there were no guarantees or ways to enforce the oral statements and alleged promises.

Contrary to the opinion of some LICH will continue to survives with one of the several new bidders that are presenting proposals for a full hospital . SUNY cant sabotage the process with everyone now on to them & watching.
