Authority notice

In the interest of coordination of construction/rehabilitation work between the borough and homeowners, the Summit Hill Water Authority requests property owners who will be doing sidewalk work at their properties, to contact the authority office.

Authority members point out that things like curb stops and line work can be performed in coordination with a property owners' work, as opposed to having to tear up new construction after it is completed for municipal service purposes.

The authority can be reached at (570) 645-3223.

Spring cleanup

The second stage of Summit Hill Borough's spring cleanup will take place tomorrow.

Refuse will be picked up on the west side of town, along with Laurel Drive and East and West Mountaintop roads.

Among the items that will be picked up are up to five tires, tire rims, auto body parts, refrigerators, freezers, vending machines, dehumidifiers, water coolers, heat pumps, washers, dryers and stoves.

All items must have all chemicals removed from them and their doors taken off.

In addition, up to 10 bags of garbage will be collected.
