Want2Dish Donnamarie Needle: MT. AIRY RESIDENTS GET STUCK WITH THE BILL


MT. AIRY RESIDENTS GET STUCK WITH THE BILL


The I-70 annexation was once again the topic of discussion at the Mount Airy Town Council meeting on July 11. The mayor recently negotiated a plan for the $22,000 bill owed to the town by the I-70 petitioners to be split between the town and the petitioners.

Councilwoman Wendi Peters and Councilman David Blais were the two votes against the agreement to split the bill between the two parties. After a lengthy review of documents obtained through the recent Public Information Act request (and primarily between one council member and one of the representatives of the south I-70 annexation dating back to August of 2009) council members uncovered that the I-70 petitioners understood it would cost approximately $25,000 to execute the annexation.

These petitioners admittance that they had full knowledge and were in complete understanding of what the annexation costs would be, therefore both council members believe the petitioners should be responsible for the full bill.
