New road setback delays Columbus township project
Supervisors in Columbus township Warren County face a stay of proceedings on the disputed road project after the Supreme Court in Pittsburgh granted Hollants petition for stay. The plan would build a road from Spencer farm east of the Toward tannery to facilitate traffic between the city and Spring Greek, but opponents say it is unnecessary costly and flood-prone. The case highlights local tax resistance and transportation needs amid industrial growth. New York brief: John Murray Mitchell sworn in as mayor of the largest city in the country.
