BUTLER TWP — Two parcels of land of less than one acre each containing water pump stations have been used by the Butler Area Sewer Authority since 1989, even though the authority never officially has owned them.

On Monday, Feb. 6, Butler Township board of commissioners appointed three people to the long-defunct Butler Township Water and Sewer Authority and set a meeting of that authority for 4:30 p.m. Feb. 23 so its members can convey those parcels to BASA.

One of the parcels is 0.032 acres, and the other is even smaller, according to Butler Township solicitor Rebecca Black.
