Lockport, NY: (Mar-19-08) Niagara County brought a lawsuit against the City of Lockport in 2007, alleging that the city owed money over old workers' compensation claims and insurance premiums.

Under the terms of the settlement, the Niagara County Legislature voted to accept $278,220 from the City of Lockport, resolving the dispute.
