Zelienople votes to renew agreement with WBCA with conditions
ZELIENOPLE — At its monthly meeting Monday night, June 26, Zelienople Borough Council voted to renew its 50-year charter agreement with the Western Butler County Authority, the joint authority that provides water and sewer services for the borough, provided that the authority agrees to certain stipulations.
The current agreement, which also ran for 50 years, is set end in December.
The extension won’t be final until the authority board votes on the extension at its next meeting. It can’t come soon enough for Zelienople borough manager Andrew Spencer.
“The borough has been negotiating on this for almost two years,” Spencer said after the meeting. “It’s been back and forth. The borough’s been in discussions and executive sessions and we’ve had our legal counsels that have gone back and forth working through this issue.”
