The Board of Viewers hearing the Erie County Redevelopment Authority acquisition of the American Legion property on First Avenue reportedly will file an award around $17,000.

The award covers property and equipment, relocation and legal fees, and personal property, exceeding the Authority’s original $13,345 offer.
