Borough Council In Brief Session Sees Street Paving Plans
Last night the borough council met in regular session with James Pletcher presiding in Kerr’s absence. The treasurer reported 1971.05 in the treasury. The solicitor said the water company kept nine feet of water in the hill reservoir for fire protection and did not expect the borough to be liable if fire losses occurred due to water shortages. Engineer Hess estimated Spruce Street paving at 4150.95 and Martin Street concrete paving at 4597. The council voted to join the Pennsylvania Boroughs Association and to pursue repeal of the public services law, directing the solicitor to file liens against property owners on Sprace Street.
