Plains man seeks removal of disputed water line

The Athens County Commissioners declined to act on Vaughn Howard's demand to remove 110 feet of water line across his property in The Plains citing that the easement was not to be granted by resolution. Howard says the line was installed without an easement and alleges no action has been taken despite his earlier complaint. The project’s consulting engineer George Mara could not be reached for comment.
