Resident asks Hollidaysburg council to keep Gaysport stormwater updates on future agendas; council members back request

During public comment, resident Elder Moose asked borough council to keep updates about the Gaysport stormwater facility as a standing agenda item so the community stays informed about progress.

"I kindly request that updates regarding the Gaysport stormwater facility remain a standing item on the agenda," Elder Moose said, identifying himself as a Hollidaysburg resident. He thanked council and staff for ongoing efforts on the project.

During the open-agenda section, Council member Kettner asked to keep the stormwater project on future agendas and said the council will hold a light committee meeting on Jan. 15. Council member Ginger also asked that Gaysport stormwater updates remain on the agenda while requesting separate discussion items on Harb rules and a feasibility study for a parking lot at Mulberry and Wayne.

Public works staff member Ethan reported that staff met with a contractor that day about gates for stormwater mitigation and that the contractor is preparing to begin work. The remarks indicate ongoing project activity but did not include a construction start date, contract amounts, or grant award details on the record.
