Council approved a donated flagpole at Veterans Park, a PA CareerLink banner, multiple street closures for community events, an appointment to the Flood Protection Authority and routine payments; motions passed by roll-call votes.

At its Feb. 2 meeting, Lock Haven City Council approved a slate of routine permits and appointments including a donated flagpole for Veterans Park, a temporary banner for a PA CareerLink job fair, street closures for community celebrations, and an appointment to the Flood Protection Authority.

The council approved Resolution 2026-06 to allow a banner across Main Street from May 3 to June 3 to advertise a career fair through PA CareerLink. It also approved a closure of East Main Street for a Nov. holiday event requested by Mark Schlesinger and the Susquehanna Event Center, and approved a June 27 closure of North Vesper Street for the Pride in the Haven celebration, noting traffic controls and alley routing.

The council also approved a payment of $1,837.50 requested for audit costs, splitting water and sewer portions as described by staff.
