Union urges LBC to pursue inclusivity
Feb 25, 2021
BELLEVILLE The Union Township Board of Supervisors has drafted a letter to Lewistown Borough Council regarding the situation involving the Municipal Authority of the Borough of Lewistown and council’s role in appointing members to the MABL Board of Directors.
