While the 23 firms have business before the city, both Mayor Spano and his siblings-led firm recently told The Post that his brothers lobby on these clients’ behalf before the statehouse in Albany — not Yonkers’ City Hall.But Spano’s mayoral opponents and other Yonkers insiders say even an appearance of a potential conflict of interest is enough to warrant questions.
Empress Emergency Medical Services, the contracted ambulance provider for the city of Yonkers, the city’s accounting firm O’Connor Davies and Verde Electric Corp, a city contractor. AMS Acquisitions, Macquesten Development, Mark 95, LLC, a subsidiary of Stagg Group; The Plant Developers, Trinity Associates, LLC and Waverly Saw Mill River Realty — all ESP Firms that got tax breaks from the IDA, according to city and IDA records.
