Excerpt:
The five candidates for Dunmore council say they expect the controversy over the proposed Keystone Sanitary Landfill expansion to be a key issue in deciding who secures four open seats in Tuesday’s general election.

Council President Michael Dempsey and Councilman Vince Amico say their recent votes against a zoning amendment that would have bolstered the landfill’s efforts shows they remain committed to opposing the expansion. They face incumbent Councilmen Michael Hayes and Michael McHale, who voted for the amendment, and newcomer Beth McDonald Zangardi, who opposes the expansion.
