Erie County Council taking Davis to court over Millcreek Twp. funds
A member of Erie County Council has responded to how Erie County Executive Brenton Davis is distributing funds to address stormwater issues in Millcreek Township.
Council Chair Terry Scutella (D) said that while he sees the value in the projects that are being funded, he believes that the county executive did not go through the proper channels.
He said that council is not happy with the way this is being done and they're taking Davis to court.
'It wasn't approved by council, giving the money to where he gave it to the municipalities we had marked it for someplace else, but still, you have to come to council and get approval, he didn't do that. It's just now with the Home Rule Charter, so we are going back to court,' he said.
Scutella said that they are currently in court regarding the 2025 budget.
