The Lock Haven City Council used its May 3 meeting to announce summer programming, approve two event requests, and relay near-term public-works schedules.
Casey, the Director of Community Life, said the city will offer 16 concerts in the 2021 Summer Concert Series: “There will be 10 on Friday nights and 6 on the floating stage,” and floating-stage shows are scheduled every other Saturday beginning June 26. Casey said the full schedule and artist lineup will be posted on the city’s Facebook page after the meeting.
Council approved two event requests: a wedding at Bridal Park and the Dirty Dabbers Motorcycle Club’s 30th annual dual-sport ride, which will pass through city land. Staff said organizers will follow park rules, notify the watershed manager in Wayne Township for land use, require masks and helmets while on city property, and use catered, grab-and-go meals to avoid congregating. The motion to approve the requests was moved, seconded and passed unanimously.
On infrastructure, staff advised that milling of East Water Street should begin May 17 and crews are finishing ADA-compliant intersection upgrades on Water, Spring and Fourth Streets; Spring and Fourth will be scheduled after Water Street is complete. When asked about a dip in paving on Fourth Street near a university fiber installation, staff said that excavation had been done by the university and that repaving that section is not on the near-term schedule and “isn’t on the horizon to be paved at least in the next 2 years.”
A council member relayed that HomeServe (the external water/sewer line coverage provider promoted by the Pennsylvania Municipal League) offers optional coverage for internal drain and water lines for customers, with a monthly premium mentioned in the meeting record as roughly $10. The council member asked staff to pass along a pothole report at the southwest corner of Vesper and Water streets; staff said they would pass the item to public works.
The council also heard that the city will partner with United Way to let utility customers opt to round up their next quarterly water or sewer bill and donate the residual change to United Way; staff said billing partners are implementing the option so customers can choose to round up.
Mayor Long closed the meeting after a motion to adjourn.
