History
Sherrill was founded in 1916 through a special act of the state legislature. It is unique among cities in New York, because its city charter provides that, for many purposes, it is to be treated as if it were still a village located within the town of Vernon. While other cities in New York are not subject to a town's jurisdiction the Vernon town government continues to have jurisdiction over the territory of the city.[4][5]
In 1997, the Oneida tribe purchased land within the city, eventually initiating a dispute about whether they had to pay taxes.[6]
