Top sewer department men quit By Jo Kemp
Two senior sanitary officials resign from the Batavia county sewer department effective Aug 30. Donald Reckers age 60 and Fred Montgomery age 66 plan to leave amid concerns over department autonomy and non political decision making. They cite friction with county commissioners who oversee operations and recently cut staff and pulled Reckers from union bargaining. Their departures follow major water and sewer projects and ongoing regional system developments.

He notes projected 1986 funding around half of what a simple 6.3 percent share would yield, criticizing legislators for favoring larger counties and diminishing aid to smaller ones. The county library board urged opponents while the Ohio Library Association backed the bill.
