• Changed the 2019 regular borough council meeting time to 6:30 p.m.

• Discussed Eastern Environmental stopping the renovation project at the sewer plant. The $500,000 project was already supposed to be completed and has not been. The project will begin again on April 15 and is supposed to be completed by May 3 or the company faces financial penalties for the delays. In November, council discussed how the company had not met their time line for the project and the delays could possibly cause future problems.
