Council approves Rally For Recovery race at Zindel Park on August 19

Lock Haven City Council made significant strides in community engagement and infrastructure during their recent meeting on July 10, 2023. One of the key highlights was the approval of a request from Rally For Recovery to use Zindel Park for a 5K and 10K race on August 19. The council unanimously supported the motion, emphasizing their commitment to community wellness events. The race route will be finalized in coordination with the city authority to ensure all necessary permits are secured.

Additionally, the council addressed a public hearing regarding Ordinance Number 20.3, which proposes the vacating of a portion of Railroad Street. This ordinance, which affects approximately 270 feet of the street from Bellefonte Avenue to North Second, was initiated through a public request. The council noted that this was the first reading of the ordinance, with a public hearing scheduled for the first meeting in August. The ordinance will be advertised in local newspapers to keep residents informed.

These discussions reflect the council's ongoing efforts to enhance community activities and manage local infrastructure effectively. As the city prepares for the upcoming regatta and other events, residents can expect continued engagement and transparency from their local government.
