Dueling News Releases in Sussex and Lisbon

Future remains uncertain as Pauline Haass Library squabble continues. (Sussex Sun, 10/2/2012)

Excerpt:    The war of words between the Town of Lisbon and the Village of Sussex over the Pauline Haass Library has escalated although the two communities are apparently prepared to continue funding the library at least through 2013. 

Both sides fired off dueling news releases earlier this week accusing the other side of wanting to stall the negotiations over a new cost-sharing agreement between the communities.
