The Homer City Borough Manager is asking residents to be mindful of their water use.
At last night’s meeting of Borough Council, Manager Rob Nymick said that while the state has not enacted any drought watches or drought-related plans, it has been at least two weeks without significant rainfall in the area, and he wants people to cut back on their water use.
In other business, council awarded a bid to Derry Construction for the road paving project on South Lincoln and Bryan Streets. They had the low bid of $117,637.50. The job will include full depth milling and reconstruction. Nymick expects the project to start in July and run about a week.
Council will also work with PennDOT concerning the intersection of Route 119 and 56. The intersection has been the site of many accidents over the years, including three within the last month or so. Nymick said it’s not a problem with the traffic signals, but some possible solutions include not allowing u-turns or right-hand turns on the red light in an effort to reduce the number of accidents at the intersection.
