New Castle Sewer Plan Revised to Extend Main Line
The Neshannock Township Supervisors approved a revision to the official sewage plan to extend a main sewer line by 500 feet along Plank Road from Shenango to Mitchell Road. The extension, funded by Bill Siebanoller who seeks to build a home, will incur costs for connecting property owners. Other actions include issuing a temporary sewage holding tank permit for Liebandler and awaiting PennDOT traffic signal upgrades at Walmo intersection funded by state and federal sources. A $32,685.45 contract was let for Orlando Avenue improvements, and Pearson Park upgrades including a May Emma Hoyt Fund donation, new landscaping, picnic areas, and tennis court repairs were noted.

License buy-back moves to House
Legislation to allow some suspended drivers licenses to be bought back for a fee before a set suspension period cleared the state House Transportation Committee. The bill by Rep. James M. Burd would apply to high mileage workers and requires payment of fines, with no effect on those penalized for drunk driving or fatal vehicle violations. The measure advances to the full House and Rules Committee, likely after budget action.
