Park improvements reported; memorial bench placement discussed
Summary
Maintenance staff reported new park installations including a handicap swing and play piece and repairs to the fountain and restroom. Mayor McGinnis said Teresa Murphy will place a bench in memory of Trooper Robby Murphy under the pines beside the pavilion.
Maintenance worker Jason Aitkins Jr. updated the council on park work: "He's been mowing and sweeping and painting the crosswalks and lines. He purchased the new weed trimmer. And fixed the water fountain in the park as well as the urinal in the bathroom. He installed the new handicap swing and the new play piece in the park," the minutes record. Aitkins also noted that new Christmas lights arrived and that the borough will offer old candy-cane lights for sale on Facebook for $100 each; probation crews will do mulch work in the park on June 16.
Mayor Roxann McGinnis told the council she spoke with Teresa Murphy about placement of a memorial bench: "She is having a bench installed in memory of her husband, Trooper Robby Murphy," and Murphy proposed placing it under the three pine trees beside the pavilion. Council did not record objections and did not take a formal vote on bench placement at this meeting.
