The Sidney Landowners Coalition announced that Acting Supreme Court Justice John Lambert has ruled to invalidate the Town of Sidney’s  1 year Gas Drilling Moratorium.  The Law was approved by only 3 of the 5 member Town Board, attorneys for the coalition argued that their decision required a super majority vote of 4 or 5 members, as the County planning Board disapproved the law, and the protest petition from the owners of more than 20% of the town land was presented to the Town Board.  The Sidney Town Board is allowed to appeal the decision.
