OGDENSBURG — Despite a rapidly approaching deadline, the city is moving full speed ahead with a plan to collect its own sales tax.

The St. Lawrence County Board of Legislators’ Finance Committee shot down a resolution Monday night that would have again extended the city’s and county’s agreement on how sales tax collected in the county is distributed. The agreement has been in place since 2011 and, if the extension was approved, would have expired on Nov. 30, 2023.
