The April 8th Montrose School board meeting work session began with a presentation by Mr. Host regarding a solar pavilion. He provided the board with signed, sealed drawings. Because it was a pavilion and a public building the district had to find a spot to put it which was handicapped accessible. The students had requested to do a hands on project with the knowledge they had accrued in their solar energy project. There had been support from the community. John Puzo had done the drawings, and a Carlo Schneller had signed and sealed them. Eric Lewis had donated his services and agreed to do the electrical connections. He had Jamie Holbert working with him.

Mr. Host noted the site which had been picked. It was to be adjacent to the practice football field. The pavilion had been designed to fit the solar modules they wished to put on it. With roof overhangs it would be 14’ by 20’. He envisioned a lot of uses for it. It would be a rooftop unit. It also allowed for dual purpose of the space. He envisioned it being used for a place where teams could sit and cool down. The clubs could have picnics at that location.

The second of what will be at least 3 meetings this month of the Harford Township Supervisors was devoted to the sewer system, and turned out to be an in-depth course in how it all operates, taught by the man who designed and built it, assisted by the man who has maintained it since 1993.

David Klepadlo, founder of the eponymous Klepadlo & Associates of Clarks Summit, and Joe Sheposh, manager and operator of the Harford Sewer plant and responsible for keeping the system running, took seats at the table on April 11th to answer questions and work out some of the details of the next stages in the life of the 20-year-old “sanitary sewage collection system” that serves Harford village, Tingley Lake and some immediately surrounding areas.
