At last week's meeting, council heard:
*Heard questions concerning the use of the street sweeper, which isn't running its normal routes, which COLUMBIA TALK first told you several months back.
"We are limiting the use of the sweeper to prolong its life. We hope that people will clean the gutters out on their own so we don't have to purchase another sweeper," Mike Buery, councilman said.
"We are doing it in most areas of the town at least once a month," he said.
* On a question about the proposed relocation of Route 441, a citizen reported seeing three tractor-trailers run a red light recently.
"Why doesn't our police department sit out there and observe this. It is something to take a look at," said Tim Swartz.
* Learned the Lancaster County Solid Waste Management Authority gave the borough $1,500 for escorting the windmills down to Turkey Hill and received $100 for a wedding ceremony performed by Mayor Leo Lutz.
* Heard a request from a citizen to look into safety issues on Ninth Street in the area of Locust Street.

I thought it was supposed to at least run every day on Locust Street in the downtown area. Well let me tell you I was downtown yesterday on Locust and the street trash was awful!!!
it's a shame that the code enforcement and/or the police don't have the guts to give a fine to every person that drops a piece of paper - and it's not hard to see people doing it! - for example, just sit in the alley by Stovers where they litter all day long! - and can you really blame the poor souls ?? - it's been allowed for so long that these people are actually trained to litter !! - and actually, they don't even realize that it bothers anyone., so sad
