DONNA FELKER WINS BY MORE THAN 100 VOTES

Congratulations to Donna Felker on her decisive victory on Tuesday! Out of less than 700 votes cast, Mrs. Felker won by about 125 votes. Certainly, a clear indication that the Ilion voters are not that thrilled with the current administration.

Latest news out of the Municipal Building is that the Village Attorney, Robert Applegate has resigned and been replaced by an out-of-town attorney at about triple the salary. Mr. Applegate salary was $25,000 a year plus benefits. The new attorney will make $6,000 per month or $72,000 a year. Add that to the new Clerk's salary and you come up with $79,000. Wonder where that's going to come from! Hope Ilion Taxpayer is reading this.

Plus that, tonights Evening Telegram runs an add that the local Video Store is closing and moving all their business to Herkimer.
