Albany weighs settlement offer in Alexander Local Schools case
Albany Village Council moved to authorize Mayor Tim Kirkendall to seek a settlement with Alexander Local School Board counsel over a dispute about connecting a bus garage and wellness center to the village sewer system. The filing seeks to determine whether the existing 2004 $95,000 sewer tap, allowing 22,200 gallons daily, suffices amid annexation and new tap questions. A Nov 5 hearing in Athens County is set, with other litigation noted.
