Columbia Borough Council at its meeting Monday night had some more questions about skateboarding in the borough.
Shirley McBride also thanked the mayor for his recent “Letter to the Editor” to the Lancaster Newspapers explaining the borough’s position with skateboarding in the borough.
But, she suggested those wanting to be involved in a skate park get together at a dinner table and discuss it over coffee. Then, they could come to the borough with a design and the borough would listen.
She also said at the same time, she would start calling police because of a pending “nightmare” on Perry Street where she lives involving between 12 and 15 young people and their skateboards.
“They are very rude and would rather harass the neighbors,” she said. “We can’t handle these kids.”
McBride said she knows there is still money available for the construction of a skate park.
Another resident, Frank Doutrich said he wished Lutz would have taken his letter a little farther and explained that when there was a skate park in Columbia, the borough had to spend hours cleaning up.
“Council had the opportunity to eliminate skateboarding in Columbia, like Marietta, but they didn’t do it,” Doutrich said.
