Mindful of that, Accordia says it will be conducting “robust” public hearings 23 to garner community input.

So he punted. An Accordia spokes- woman declined to com- ment on the company’s dealings with the BTU. A spokesman for the union said that no de- cision has been made regarding a possible sale of its land, because there has not been a specific of- fer put forth by Accordia.
