Halbig testifies

Ed Halbig, planning and community development director for Seneca, is on the stand at the Oconee Common Pleas Court trial.  He is being asked by plaintiff’s attorney about the inspections and the resulting communications that he had with the owner of By-Pass 123 property.  That property, some 9-plus acres, is the subject of a dispute between the property seller and the buyer.  The case is 4105 Liberty Highway vs. Redland Properties and others.  The jurors have been hearing testimony since yesterday on whether that in the transaction the defendants failed to disclose the existence of a failed storm water drainage system.
