Niagara Falls City Councilman and County Legislature candidate Chris Voccio called on AL Asphalt and the Town of Niagara to go through another necessary step before moving forward with its plans.

“The proposed asphalt plant just outside of Niagara Falls failed to seek approval from the County planning board, and this necessary step in the process is vital to have additional review, and an additional opportunity for public comment,” Voccio said in a written statement.

“Process matters. Transparency matters. This project should follow the proper steps, and the public should have the right to weigh in on the matter to the County planning board,” Voccio continued.
