Tomorrow, the main stream media will be reporting on the Erie County Leg's vote on the Sales tax extension, but just as important as that vote was, a resolution that passed which says (basically) that the leg is completely opposed to the dissolution of the PBC and remains committed to keeping ECMC public.

Are Alden Planning Board salaries authorized under Town Code
Regarding Alden Planning Board compensation, it is my belief that town tax dollars are being spent without the authority to do so. This has been going on for years and may be a considerable sum when the final tally is done.
