Micron is Coming!
County District 10 Legislator Mark Olson arranged a public meeting about Micron for the Town of Manlius at Wellwood School on February 8th. The publicity and staging referenced the Mayors of Manlius, Minoa and Fayetteville as well as the Superintendents of F-M and ESM Schools but NOT the Town of Manlius Supervisor. The date and time of the presentation was in direct conflict with a Town Board meeting. Deputy Supervisor Sara Bollinger skipped the meeting in order to represent the Town at the Micron event. The County Executive, Ryan McMahon, spoke for most of the 1.5 hour meeting that included a presentation and questions from the audience of about 100 people from many parts of the Town. Much of the discussion was about workforce preparation for the jobs Micron will create or support.
