Myersville EPA clash over financing of sewer project continues
The Myersville and EPA dispute moves to a third appeal as officials review new information about a town loan to a $1.06 million sewer plant. The town funded 25 percent with private contributions from land outside town limits, triggering federal audit findings. If EPA demands repayment, Myersville could face restrictions on debt, possible bond issues, or higher taxes and rates for residents.

Main Street renovations reveal 1930 crete and earlier cobblestones
A town rebuilding project uncovers a 1930 crete layer beneath a century old cobblestone road and possible 1800s plank road remains. Brick fragments show earlier street surfaces while residents collect stones for nostalgia and potential museum display. Victorian gas lamps light the completed East Main Street section as Wolfe Brothers finish to the square by fall, with full project by next October.
