Indians Win Round In Water Fight Onondaga Case
A state Supreme Court justice issued a preliminary injunction restraining the city from shutting off water to property claimed by an Oneida Indian family on the Oneida Reservation. Twelve Indians sought the injunction after the city threatened to cut water to Mary Shenandoah, Clifford Shenandoah, and Gerald Shenandoah for non payment of a bond assessment of 48 dollars a year for a water main extension along West Road. The Indians argue the assessment is a tax, forbidden by state Indian law. The city contends the land is no longer an Indian reservation or not exempt from assessments.
