After considering several options on campus and off, the Board decided to put it into the northwest side of the High School.  This was among the most economical options that also met the Board's strong preference to keep the District Office on the campus.

Seneca Falls – In response to reports that the Cayuga Indian Nation is acquiring 205 acres in Cayuga and Seneca Counties, New York State Senator Michael F. Nozzolio (R-Fayette) announced that he is fighting efforts by the Cayugas to place their real estate holdings into a federal trust. Any land placed into a federal trust is permanently made sovereign and free from taxation.

“By applying to the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs to put their land into federal trust, the Cayuga Indian Nation continues to look for back-door sovereignty after their unfavorable decision in the City of Sherrill case” said Senator Nozzolio. “The City of Sherrill decision was clear: Indian tribes cannot purchase land that they left 200 years ago and claim it as sovereign land.”

Lansing held its second open house Saturday to give residents a chance to talk one-on-one to engineers and town officials about the proposed sewer project.  Sewer Committee members have been working to address questions raised by residents at past informational meetings and through letters, telephone calls and e-mail.  Tables were set up around the court room in Lansing Town Hall with maps and documents defining the $18.2 million project.  The town sent more than 1400 post cards to residents within the proposed district, but turnout was relatively low with mainly people who had been to previous meetings.
