Jorough Awarded More CWA Time for Lititz Streets
Lititz receives additional Civil Works Administration hours for street construction but not all requested time is granted. Work on Front Street Cedar to Water and Cedar Street from Main toward Orange progresses slowly with labor having reached the second hour week. On the athletic field on West Orange Street progress is steady as carts return to transporting dirt after a temporary ban is lifted. The borough seeks further time to complete begun projects though the exact allowance remains undecided.
