After a lengthy and often ugly argument, Lansford borough council on Wednesday agreed to take $154,000 from a certificate of deposit to pay bills.
"There's not enough money to pay the bills and still be able to meet payroll without borrowing from another account," said Council president Rose Mary Cannon.
"We have money sitting in CDs, and people are waiting for their bills to be paid," she said.
Council spent a significant amount of time casting blame and arguing loudly about money matters.
