Town moves to ease Amphenol's floodwater ills

The municipal government of Sidney, NY has been working diligently to ensure that Amphenol can rebuild its manufacturing facility in the area after last September's flood. Sidney's village board has reportedly approved a resolution that would allow the Delaware County Electric Cooperative to build and maintain an electrical distribution plant and provide service in the area; officials say the plant will provide Amphenol with cheaper electricity.

"This is one of the services provided to them that can allow [Amphenol] to operate more efficiently and keep them in our area," said Sidney Mayor Andy Matviak, quoted in a report found at the website of the TV network WBNG Binghamton. Town officials added that designs for the power distribution plant will likely take months to be finalized. Amphenol's Sidney facility accounts for about 1,000 jobs in the town.
