The Owasco Town Board on Tuesday decided to take no action in the status of its highway superintendent, accused by New York State Police of falsifying a time sheet.
Town highway superintendent Michael L. Wilson is accused of submitting a falsified time sheet for another town employee in July 2006.
The board issued this written statement after conferring in executive session for about 90 minutes Tuesday.
"The Town Board has reviewed all of its legal options. In view of the fact that this situation was addressed in 2006 to the satisfaction of the then Town Board, therefore this town Board believes that no action is necessary at this time, and we choose to let the judicial process take its course."
Wilson was charged with one felony count of first-degree for offering a false instrument for filing and a misdemeanor count of second-degree falsifying business records, according to state police.
Last August, the state comptroller's office and state police investigators reviewed government files in the Town of Owasco. The investigation is ongoing.
