(Aliquippa, PA) The Aliquippa School Board approved a five-year tax abatement for the “Legacy Bricks” and other items on Wednesday. Aaron Donald was the developer  at last week’s work session. Affordable housing will also be built in the “BRICKS” area at Oliver Street and Temple Street. The original “Bricks” were built in the early 1900’s and were demolished as part of revitalization efforts by the city of Aliquippa in an effort to have housing available. The board also approved coaches’ salaries for both the winter season and for sports. A collective bargaining agreement for maintenance staff, custodians and facilities was also approved.
