Concerns Raised over Oswego Water Testing

By Jose Hernandez

OSWEGO – Phil Myer spoke at the meeting concerning a letter he received. He said the letter was about water testing for $150. Myer contends that areas that require testing are technically city property and should be the city’s responsibility. Myer says that it’s important to test for lead in the pipes, but that it seems unfair to expect elderly people on fixed incomes to be expected to pay an unexpected expense during the holidays.

The Restore NY grant will allow the redevelopment of the Oswego Freight House into a brewery and restaurant. The city hopes that the brewery will enhance the aesthetic and cultural value of Utica St neighbor. They hope that the brewery will attract residents and create jobs.
