Council directs planning-process steps, addresses Riverside gate request and hears public concerns

Taylor Borough Council · October 8, 2025

Summary

Council directed the Borough Manager to pursue adding a Planning Commission alternate, the solicitor advised insurance requirements for a Riverside School District gate/curb request, and public commenters raised needs-vs-wants and library bylaws concerns.

Councilman DeAngelo said the Planning Commission requested that an alternate member be added; the council directed the Borough Manager to work with the Solicitor to complete the process.

Solicitor Bill Jones discussed a Riverside School District request to cut the borough curb to add a gate from the TCC parking lot to school property. Jones said the work will be done on Riverside property and instructed that the borough be added as an additional insured while the work is being performed.

During the public comment period, Edward Fortuna "discussed needs versus wants for the Borough." Roberta Bauman raised concerns about the Strategic Management Planning (STMP) Program and why the borough was considering moving forward with it. President Kenneth F. Mickavicz also asked Kristi Englehart, a Taylor Community Library board member, whether the library bylaws were closer to approval; Englehart said she was not sure when a vote would be scheduled.

The meeting concluded with the chair declaring the meeting adjourned.
