The state has formally moved to declare the stretch of railway from North Creek to Tahawus abandoned. Photo provided/Brendan Wiltse Photography
NEWCOMB | The state has formally moved to declare the stretch of railway from North Creek to Tahawus abandoned. The state Attorney General’s Office in-
formed the federal Surface Transportation Board (STB) they would apply for a determination on the Tahawus Line by Aug. 31, citing the “absence of current use” on the track, as well as the “lack of any foreseeable future need” for rail service on the 30-mile line. The adverse abandonment application asks the federal board to remove Iowa Pacific as the owner and operator of the line. But the state’s plan was countered abruptly on Monday as the Essex County Board of Supervisors opposed the move.

WARREN COUNTY | Warren County Treasurer Mike Swan has asked the Board of Supervisors to amend its local law to include “short-term vacation rentals,” including Airbnb rentals, among tourist accommodations and to collect occupancy tax. The Board of Supervisors scheduled a public hearing on the matter for Friday, Sept. 21, at 10 a.m. in the supervisors meeting room. Contacted this week, Swan said the county is in negotiations with Airbnb, an online marketplace for short-term rentals, regarding how to collect the occupancy tax from them. » Occupancy tax Cont. on pg. 10
