Comments from in town

In case anyone hasn't noticed, there is no "police" vehicle following the street sweeper for the last couple of weeks.
This leads to a question that when the borough hired extra crossing guards and parking enforcement officers, the idea was not to have police fill in as crossing guards and always have someone follow the sweeper.
So, why are we short a crossing guard in the afternoon at the intersection of Ninth and Walnut streets? Why isn't there a vehicle following the sweeper? Seems, the borough's parking enforcement people have told the borough they won't follow the sweeper.
So the questions are why do these people have a job, because as we were told at a council meeting, this was the idea to have people cross trained. Secondly, why aren't borough officials making these people follow the sweeper.
So, are we giving up writing the $10 tickets for a $5 ticket?
Business friendly!
