Jury Views Gone Building in Hartley Eminent Domain Case
An Erie County court jury on the second day of hearings in the Hartley eminent domain appeal toured the Fourth Ward Urban Renewal project site. The Hartleys seek about 30 000 for two parcels on West Main Street while the board valued the land at 5500 after a torn building left only vacant lots shown by renewal office photos. The trial resumes today as the parties contest the compensation following earlier determinations.

Thomas Quigley of the Eastern Region says a nationwide renovation program aims to improve working conditions, with an estimated $200,000 needed for updates. The project supports commitments to postal employees and the bargaining agent, though no new construction date was given.
