Forward may seem the obvious direction for all civilizations. But one might consider that failure to move forward is surrender to stagnation, recession, and ultimately decay. That which is not improved, or at least maintained, atrophies and fails to fulfill its function. And so with the swearing in of Kaylin Lindquist at August’s meeting and Barbara Larsen at this (October 8th’s) meeting, Susquehanna Borough regenerated its vitality to move forward at full strength. (See pictures of new council members and the complete line-up in "Susquehanna Boro Welcomes Members" article.)

During the Street Department report, at the October 6th meeting of the Montrose Borough meeting, Mr. DiPhillips explained that they had factory recalls on the Dodge. He had difficulties at the dealer, because he hadn’t purchased the truck there. The truck, then, was at Binghamton Dodge for work related to (and covered by) the recall. This may have delayed the annual leaf collection, it was noted.

Mr. DiPhillips also spoke of the drainage project in the parking lot. He said that he had been asking contractors to give a price for the work, as he wasn’t going to be able to have any involvement with the project since he had other duties he needed to do. He said that he needed to be utilized elsewhere. There were three quotes out there, it was said. Mr. Reimel said that he liked Bill Lawrence for the work. The only thing they were concerned about sewer laterals. He discussed some of the details more closely. Mr. Lamont said that he knew Mr. Lawrence had done some digging for the sewer authority, and felt he would be a good choice. This was voted upon and passed.
