Town files notice of appeal in IDA lawsuit; attorneys preparing documents
Summary
The board heard that Broome County Supreme Court issued a decision in the town's IDA lawsuit and the town filed a notice of appeal to the Appellate Division (3rd Department); attorneys are preparing appeal documents.
A town staff member briefed the board on the status of the lawsuit against the Industrial Development Agency (IDA). The staff member said, "the supreme court in Broome County issued its decision, and the town has a right to have that decision reviewed on appeal at what's called the appellate division, the 3rd department... so the town filed a notice of appeal, to get that process started."
The staff member added that town attorneys are finalizing documents to move the appeal forward. Board members did not discuss substantive legal arguments in open session but noted the appeal filing as the next procedural step.
