A Possible Sewer District
The Bath Town Board is considering forming a sewer district. What we know about this is, an engineering report has been completed, and the district will be in the Lake Salubria area. There will be a public informational meeting about this, on Thursday, in the High School Cafeteria, at Haverling High School. Officials say that facemasks are optional, and there will be a zoom video stream.

Gillibrand: Working To Help Vets, With Burn Pit Issues
Senator Kirsten Gillibrand is continuing to work to get a new law passed, to help military members who were near burn pits, in their military years. Today, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand spoke on the Senate floor to urge her colleagues to pass the bipartisan Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring Our PACT Act. The bill includes provisions from Senator Gillibrand’s bipartisan Presumptive Benefits for War Fighters Exposed to Burn Pits and Other Toxins Act, which would help millions of service members and veterans who have been exposed to the toxic fumes from burn pits.
Stefanik Backs Paladino
Some behind the scenes politics is going on in the congressional race for the new 23rd. Officials say that Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R, Syracuse) is throwing her support behind Buffalo billionaire Carl Paladino. That means that elise Stefanik is going up against state GOP chairman Nick Langworthy, because Langworthy is circulating petitions to run in the new 23rd himself. There will likely be a primary between Nick Langworthy and Carl Paladino.
