L&W Complex Project Opposition Grows

Over 100 people filled Trinity Baptist Church last night as Adams subdivision residents got the chance to question two Seneca leaders. According to sister station WGOG, the audience was resilient in protest of the city’s plans to build a utilities complex on the property of the former JN Kellett School. Near the start, Seneca Mayor Pro-tem Ronnie O’Kelley told the crowd that, although he was one of the city leaders who approved the project, he’s now taking an open mind and is hopeful that a compromise can appease everyone. But several audience members were strident that nothing short of canceling the project there will be satisfactory. One man, identified to reporters as Charles Fox, rose from the audience and told both O’Kelley and City Attorney Mike Smith that if they persist, they can expect to face a costly legal challenge. More information on the project will be shared at Tuesday night’s meeting of the Seneca City Council.
