Susquehanna Depot formally completed the unification process on May 11, 2016. What, you weren’t aware it needed unifying?  It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek to note this milestone, but it deserves mention because it clears up an anomaly that should have never been. In its heyday, Susquehanna had four wards and a population of 5,000-plus. Over the years the Erie Railroad downsized and receded into history. So too did the population needed to support the Erie Shops. Just when the borough’s ward system was reduced from four to two nobody seems to know, but that’s what happened. Since that point in time indeterminate the borough has operated with two wards.

Superintendent Jessica Aquilina conducted a presentation of the 2016-2017 Forest City Regional School budget during the school board meeting on May 9th.  She thanked Business Manager, Mrs. Seifried profusely for helping her prepare and present the budget.  The budget needs to provide the costs of instruction, support services, operation and maintenance of plant services, and other expenditures.  The projected budget is fourteen million, twenty-five thousand, five hundred and one dollars.
