Settlement of Corry school district property dispute settles long controversy
The Corry School District settles an eighteen year dispute over fair grounds property after condemnation by the Federal government. Appraisers fixed 45801 as the price, far above the 1923 agreed 15000, leaving questions of legality and refunds for payments. The case highlights the need to resolve similar disputes promptly to avoid ongoing costs to taxpayers. The property will eventually become Federal land with a residential subdivision nearby.
