Philadelphia sued over proposed airport expansion
Delaware County and Tinicum Township officials are suing the City of Philadelphia over its plans to expand Philadelphia International Airport.
The city-owned airport is partly in the city limits and partly in neighboring Tinicum Township.
The township and the county sued the city yesterday in Delaware County Court. They are asking a judge to declare that the city cannot acquire land in Tinicum Township without permission from the township and the county. The lawsuit says the city believes it can do so without permission. - AP
