Dive summary:
- Falls Township is being sued due to a boundary dispute that has been ongoing for four years at Tullytown Landfill. The difference between the two rival boundary lines is just 25 feet.
- The dispute began in 2009, as Waste Management stated an expansion of 36 acres on the property, which is located in Bucks County, Pa.
- The borough solicitor will file the suit at the end of the week if no resolution is reached between the two towns.
From the article:
"Potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars in host fees from Waste Management are at stake, depending where the boundary falls for the towns, officials said."
"The two towns agreed previously to split the host fees in half until the dispute is settled, officials said. Tullytown and Falls will each receive an estimated $23 million in fees from the site, a Waste Management representative said."
