Grand Jury Recommends County Property Purchase Across Court Street
After a preliminary inspection trip the June grand jury urged the court to buy lots 308 and 309 across from the courthouse for county use. The March grand jury had previously recommended the purchase, pending approvals by two juries and county commissioners. True bills returned include Donald Conti for larceny and related crimes, Kenneth Sankey for operating a vehicle while intoxicated, Caroline Sesko for neglect of minor children, and Albert Amodie for obscenity and conspiracy.
