• The Daily News recaps last night's City Council session, which featured a notable squabble over whether or not City Attorney George Van Nest needs to be present at each and every conference meeting.  Councilman Frank Fernando told the Daily News the conversation is "over for this year," given that the city budget has already passed.
• Genesee County's Empire Zone could be expanded to include more than 100 additional acres near Route 5.  The addition would make more room for a Canadian food processor talking with the Genesee Economic Development Center about becoming the first tenant of the planned Agri-business Park.  According to the Daily News, EDC Chief Executive Officer Steve Hyde "declined to identify" the Canadian company, but the story doesn't mention why he declined.  Maybe he would say it's because they're still negotiating, but I'll try to give him a call and let him say that for himself.  If I lived here, I'd want to know who was coming to town.
• In sports, Batavia scored five goals in the fourth quarter to top Palmyra-Macedon at the Section 5 Class C boys lacrosse tournament on Tuesday.  The lacrosse program is in its second year at Batavia, so winning a playoff game must feel amazing at this stage of the program's development.  Coach Chuck Hammon told the Daily News his team was pretty excited about the big win.  Check out the full Class C lacrosse tournament bracket here.  Batavia takes on top-seeded Penn Yan on Friday.
