Residents raise multiple concerns in public comment: signs, snow removal, parking

New Hope Borough Council · February 2, 2026

Summary

During public comment residents thanked public works for snow removal but raised concerns about an oversized political sign, loss of parking to private valet, and urged the borough to pursue a mutual snow-removal agreement with PennDOT; Zoning Officer Lisa Littlefield said staff had received complaints and would address the sign.

During the workshop several residents used the public-comment period to raise separate town issues.

Stacy Endress thanked Public Works for snow removal, then said a Trump/Vance political sign on Kiltie Drive had been in place since before the election and asked whether it violated code. Zoning Officer Lisa Littlefield said the office was aware of that sign, had received several complaints and "we are going to address with the owner."

Manager Gray also read an email recommending the borough pursue a mutual snow-removal agreement with PennDOT so borough crews could plow state roads in storms when PennDOT resources are limited. Council agreed to explore the idea.

Endress and others also said they were disappointed that cones and private valets had taken public parking during The Landing event; that concern was handled separately in the staff response.
