More than a year after the Mon Valley Alliance announced it would be revitalizing the Mid-Mon Valley Council of Governments, the group met informally for the first time on Thursday.
While only five municipalities — Monongahela, Donora, Charleroi, Brownsville Township and Dunlevy — were represented at the meeting, at least nine communities have passed ordinances to be involved.
