Development News from the latest meeting
Retail Gun Store Ordinance Forwarded to Planning Commission for Review
The council moved to forward the retail gun store ordinance to the county and borough planning commission for review and comment. This step is necessary before the ordinance can be advertised. The initial motion was corrected to reflect this procedural step.
Borough Adopts Resolution on Immigration Policy and Community Trust
The council adopted a resolution affirming the borough's commitment to community trust, constitutional rights, public safety, and appropriate use of local resources concerning ICE agents. This resolution has been under discussion since February and aims to establish the council's stance on immigration matters.
Philly Truce Greenhouse Project Recommended for Sycamore Park
The Economic Development Committee recommends allowing Philly Truce to use space in Sycamore Park for a greenhouse for their youth program. Conditions include maintaining the greenhouse attractively, ensuring it is removed by a specified date, and that the borough has no responsibility for vandalism. This item is on the agenda for a vote to allow the project to proceed, given the late season.
Council Approves Resolution for Micro-Mobility Safety Education and Awareness Campaign
A resolution was adopted to support micro-mobility safety education and public awareness. This initiative involves creating and distributing public service announcements (PSAs) and cards to organizations that cater to children and families to educate them on the laws regarding e-bikes and e-scooters, such as age restrictions and where they can be ridden. The goal is to normalize adherence to these laws over time.
