ALBANY – An Albany County judge ruled Friday that the city Common Council did have the power to amend the city zoning code in its effort to prevent a blood plasma collection center from opening in the Upper Washington Avenue neighborhood.
The decision, one of several Judge Peter Lynch made on the issue of the proposed center, answered a larger question on development in the city when it comes to the powers the council has as a separate branch of government.
