A Combinatorial Algorithm for Facility Location with No G-odd Cycles

In [1] we had proved that the linear relaxation of a facility location model defines an integral polytope if and only if the graph has no g-odd cycles. Here we give a combinatorial algorithm for facility location in this class of graphs.
