Summit Township opposes BASA sale
BASA plans to refute arguments
SUMMIT TWP — Supervisors authorized their solicitor on Wednesday, April 19, to file an objection with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission over plans to sell the Butler Area Sewer Authority to Pennsylvania American Water for $231 million.
BASA, however, contended in a statement Wednesday that the authority will refute the arguments by Summit and Center townships before the PUC.
Summit supervisors approved a memorandum with Center Township, and the two municipalities will enter into the objection together and split the legal costs.
