The Columbus City Council in a unanimous vote last night gave the green light for a lawsuit to be filed in the next week against the U-S Army Corps of Engineers.
The city wants to ensure it receives the proper amount of water from the Chattahooche River. Columbus officials say unless the waterworks and treatment facilities get their full allocation mandated by its state permit, millions would have to be spent on equipment upgrades.
The fate of the suit had been in limbo since June when it was first considered by the 10-member council.
