City Wins Sewer Suit Clearing Way for Construction
The court of appeals dissolved the temporary injunction stopping the city from awarding a sewer contract to John F. Casey of Pittsburgh. The ruling lets the city sign within 24 hours and start work within days as the state board of health orders make council action unnecessary beyond funding. Casey’s bid and contract process faced prior challenges, but the higher court upheld Judge Ake’s view that health orders alone authorize the project. The injunction was dissolved and Bowman’s petition dismissed.
