Judge Dismisses Suit To Prevent Expansion Of City Water System
Judge Robert J. Cain dismissed a suit filed last August by Philip O'Neill and Samuel Johnson on behalf of Carlin Dawson and others to block the $12 million water plant and distribution expansion in Anderson. The action challenged Public Service Commission approval and sought to stop revenue bonds sale, aiming to fund a Ranney well purchase and new storage tank for emergency capacity, with the city’s water rates previously approved. Attorneys Johnson and O'Neill said they would seek an appeal to the Indiana Supreme Court.
