(Harrisburg) -- Harrisburg Mayor Linda Thompson says there's still time for City Council to come to an agreement with her about a fiscal plan for the cash-strapped city. Thompson's remarks came just hours after Governor Corbett signed a bill that gives him the authority to take over Harrisburg's finances. The mayor says City Council shouldn't give the state control of the city so easily. "The taxpayers and the voters of this city voted you in office to do their business," she says. "They did not vote the governor in to do their business for the city of Harrisburg. They voted the governor in to do their business for the state, and so I'm telling council: Why would you work so hard to become elected officials and allow the governor to take over your city?" Thompson says council members have not come up with an alternative proposal to help bail the city out of its more than $300 million debt, so they should move forward with the current fiscal recovery plan. She says she expects to meet with council and the state Department of Community and Economic Development within the next eight days to try to reach an agreement before the state acts.
