The Olean Common Council held a three-hour marathon session Tuesday discussing issues from repaving Front Street and Seneca Avenue to curb or frontage fees, plowing business district sidewalks, closed restrooms and splash park fees.


Aldermen also discussed setting aside $200,000 in surplus sewer fees for litigation costs over Allegany sewage disposal costs.


In the City Operations Committee’s discussion of plans to repave Front Street and Seneca Avenue, which were not on the original street paving list, Council President Vernon Robinson Jr., I-Ward 6, obtained an agreement to place the streets that were removed from the list to be on next year’s state CHIPs aid list.
