I guess it is a safety issue

I posted last week or the week before a safety issue involving a utility pole in the area of Third and Locust street. The partial pole was hanging from a newly installed pole. Apparently, Columbia Borough also thinks it is now a safety issue as the parking spot by the pole is now blocked off. It went up Friday afternoon.

Redevlopment taking too long

Took these pictures pictures this morning of a property located to the East side of the Columbia Plaza Shopping Center in the 900 block of Lancaster Avenue. The property, according to one neighbor, has been vacantt since at least 1980 and was taken over more than a year ago by the Lancaster Redevelopment Authority, which has by appearances had done little other than replace windows, balcony and deck. The yard is nothing but weeds. The reason I post it, the property is located on a major getaway from our town and doesn't leave visitors with a great image.
