Fluoride Referendum Unlikely In 2007

Voters in Corning will probably have to wait until next year to vote on whether fluoride should be added to Corning's drinking water.
Fluoridation opponent Kirk Huttleston submitted petitions to Corning City Council Thursday night calling for the referendum to block fluoridation. He had more than 400 signatures from registered voters. 306 signatures are needed. However city officials say the petitions have to be reviewed by the City Attorney to determine if a local law has to be passed to put the question before the voters.
Mayor Frank Coccho says he's confident it will and that would push any referendum back to next year.
