NEW YORK MILLS, N.Y. (WKTV) - Oriskany Manufacturing is expanding its operations in the Village of New York Mills.

On Monday, the company broke ground on the beginning phase of its $2 million addition.

The company started 11 years ago from Monday, and as they broke ground on the state-of-the-art, $30,000 square foot addition, the company was ovewhelmed with reasons as to why it's important to remain in this area.

"The biggest reason I could say is that we have a well established workforce - loyal, dedicated, hard working workforce," said Michael Fitzgerald. "We had a lot of momentum and I'm glad to see we could finish what we started."

The global tube fabricator will add at least 50 new jobs to the company.

why would you cover a ground breaking for an expansion that may never happen due to ongoing litigation?? The corrupt Mayor made yet another back door deal (let's not forget about chief frankland) that he's being called down on.
