GE Assessment Boost Dropped in Erie County
County commissioners dropped a $2,000,000 G E assessment increase for the General Electric plant, risking over $90,000 in tax revenue to the county and Lawrence Park township. The decision followed a statement from County Solicitor Jacob Held citing legislative absence of a tax revision clause. Attorney W Pitt Gifford argued the raise was disproportionate to other area plants.
