Warren - West Seneca needs to transfer its water to ECWA
In 2015 the Town bonded close to $8 million to perform repairs on our water system and to convert from a leased managed to direct service with the Erie County Water Authority. At the time we were told that the repairs would be completed in November 2016 with the transfer to ECWA to take place in early 2017. However, this does not to have been done since in the most recent budget we are still paying for the water districts.

BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S TheatreLoft/ART of WNY
Think about it: “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”
It’s a movie name familiar to most, Henry Mancini’s “Moon River” and Audrey Hepburn, with that little black dress and the cigarette holder as Holly Golightly.

THE KATHY AND MO SHOW: Parallel Lives/The Dark Side Shea's Smith Theatre/O'Connell & Company
At one time, theater was Shakespeare or vaudeville.
Fewer people are interested in the Bard today and vaudeville disappeared about the time Shea’s Buffalo was built.

SENSE & SENSIBILITY Andrews Theatre/Irish Classical Theatre Company
With English-language literature dominated for so long by the dreaded DWMs, the dead White Males, Jane Austen today is a familiar name in the Mars/Venus wars, as Lit goes across the board and looks back to times when women had no forums.

THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES Festival Theatre/Shaw Festival
Too long.
Too melodramatic.
Strong set, although the computer stuff wasn’t working right.
Fine Sherlock Holmes in Damien Atkins.
Just off a vast grassy field outside the Festival Theatre, life returns to the Great Grimpen Mire, Dartmoor and the giant, howling hound in “The Hound of the Baskervilles.”
