WBFO Brief Sept. 14, 2021

In today's WBFO Brief, a proposed Outer Harbor concert venue is one step closer to construction; federal funds are heading to the City of Tonawanda to update aging firefighting equipment; anti-vaccination and vaccination passport activists protest outside Ontario hospitals, while back on this side of the border Chautauqua County anticipates federal funds to begin distributing third COVID shots.

Also, Tom Dinki explains how Buffalo Public Schools are preparing to take in anticipated Afghan refugees who recently fled their homeland upon the Taliban's takeover, and Governor Kathy Hochul vows to affirm New York State as a safe haven for abortion rights and access.
