The meeting was attended by all five supervisors, plus township officials. Granicus did not send anyone. Township solicitor Thomas Nanovic explained some of the rules that could be added to the STR ordinance, such as not allowing STRs within 500 feet of each other (going forward as the existing STRs would be grandfathered), as well as shortening the response time when there is a problem from an hour to 30Supervisorsminutes. are voting about adding a part-time code enforcement officer at their September 6 meeting.

Over 160 people crowded the Whispering Pines hall on Tuesday, August 30, as Penn Forest Township supervisors held a community meeting about Short Term Rentals (STR). Dozens of questions were asked about rules in place, and those needed to be added or changed as challenges of living with STR properties multiply.

At the supervisors’ table, are (from left) attorney Tom Nanovic, supervisors Patrick Holland, Scott Lignore, Roger Meckes, Christian Bartulovich, Tom Cross (not shown, hidden by Bartulovich), and secretary Dana Vitale and zoning officer Phil Proust. Bill Rook speaks.

A lakefront property owner complained of having three short-term-rental properties full on a recent weekend, some 80 people in all. They were noisy and rude, launched fireworks, and more. He called 9-1-1 twice. Violation notices to each property are being sent. Lake Harmony Volunteer Fire Company chief Ralph Lennon is concerned about the low water pressure in the Split Rock water system. He has been told by residents there that the water tanks that serve that part of town are only half full. Hydrants in that area may not work when needed. Supervisors noted this, and also noted that this is within a private community, so the supervisors have limited authority.Billsof$220,139 were approved. Most of that was insurances, services and taxes, $67,811; emergency services, $47,079; trash collection, $29,401; a payment towards the new police car, $24,195; engineering fees, $11,311; and $5,995 for gasoline and diesel for the township vehicles. The rest was for services (legal, mailing, SEO), small expenses, and supplies.Thenext regular meeting of Kidder supervisors is September 27, starting at 6:30 p.m.

A surprise item on Kidder Township’s supervisors meeting agenda was the resignation of board chairman Thomas Bradley. The long-serving leader has been a member of the supervisors since 2006. He missed July’s meeting and his letter of resignation arrived ahead of the regular meeting on August 23. The resignation was accepted with great regret. Kidder Township residents who may be interested in filling out Bradley’s remaining term, through the end of 2023, can send a letter of interest stating qualifications and why they would be a good supervisor to township manager Suzanne Brooks, or bring it in to the municipal office. The mail address is Kidder Township, P. O. Box 576, Lake Harmony, PA 18624. Candidates will likely be considered at the September 20th regular meeting, so those interested should attend.August’s meeting, run by vice chairman Ray Gluck, was short. Supervisors approved a conditional use hearing for the Mora Solar project, to be held September 22 at the township building. Patrolman Mason Moran was approved to become full-time, starting August 21. Payments into the pension plans were authorized$152,171 for the police, and $11,735 for non-uniformed staff. An agreement for the maintenance of traffic signals (all four sets) was modified to add township manager Brooks to authorize actions and spending. This gives her the authority to get the signal emitters reportedsupervisorRoadmasterinstalled.andBruceBergerthepavingwork is nearly done for North Lake Drive, with punch list items to get it finished. As part of public comment, a group of families who live on Laurel Lane in Albrightsville complained about being harassed by ‘squatters’ who have taken over an unbuildable property at the end of their road. These people have added sheds, a hunting stand, and an old school bus. They are out shooting guns, exploding fireworks including quarter sticks (very loud), and harass the neighbors with ATVs and foul language. “It’s scary,” shared one couple. It’s getting worse explained another. Police and code officials are working through the processes to take action, explained Gluck. They were told to keep calling 9-1-1.

After supervisors heard another hour-long citizens’ session of complaints about Short Term Rentals (STRs), supervisors agreed to hold a ‘town hall’ meeting about STRs on August 30. Granicus, the township’s violations recording agency, will be invited to send a representative.RegardingSTRs, supervi sors voted unanimously to advertise to hire a part-time code enforcement officer (CEO), with plans to have the new CEO look into the many STRs in the township. A surprise item on the agenda, supervisor Tom Cross submitted his resignation effective at the end of August. He is moving out of state. Cross, a resident in the Pleasant Valley West development, said he was leaving due to STRs. He explained that there 12 STRs in his community including some under construction. Cross first ran for office in 2011 and was nearly elected. He ran again in 2017 and was elected for a term that started in 2018 and continued through 2024. Interested citizens can apply for the vacancy with a letter of interest stating qualifications as well as reasons they wish to serve. The term would be from September’s meeting through to the end of December 2024. Interested citizens must attend the September 6 meeting, as whoever is chosen will be sworn in as a supervisor that night. Those letters can be e-mailed to secretary@ pennforesttownship.org, or dropped off at the township office. For the township park, supervisors okayed having W-B Electric install a subpanel in the concession stand to accommodate the new 50amp service. Cost is $1,177. Ten inground mounted benches will be bought to install along the walk path of the park, for $575 each plus the cost of cement for

While I’m getting treated these past few months, I promised Ruth that we’d still make the most of our summer. As with most infusion therapy, there a good days and not. I’m bulling my way through the days I am tired, being careful but getting out. For example, some friends drove Ruth and me to Musikfest in Bethlehem for a Saturday night at the Steel Stacks side of the festival. We went to enjoy the silliness of Igor and the Red Elvises, who this night were performing beneath the impressive former Bethlehem Steel blast furnaces. Our friends had bought tickets to see Willie Nelson perform, so while they were in the stands watching Willie, Ruth and I were settled in on the lawn to enjoy Igor. Igor’s band went on at 9 and played two sets. Our friends rejoined us for Igor’s last set. There was more walking than I bargained for, but I managed. It was a late night ‘til we got home, but fun fun fun.Aug. 7, I visited the Save the Dogs fundraiser at the Split Rock Golf Course clubhouse in Lake Harmony. Red Rock Rescue brought a lot of puppies. I enjoyed the doggie excitement, tried my luck at the tricky tray, and came home with a magnet (not a puppy) – we have two dogsThatalready.afternoon, we took our dogs for two nights away near Benton PA. We needed a change of scenery, and some quiet time. We arrived just before the Colonel Ricketts Cidery closed. The Cidery was one of our planned stops. There, we sampled and bought some cider, then went to settling in to our lodging. For dinner, we drove a few miles to the tiny town of Central for a meal at the Central Park Hotel, whose dining room features a large taxidermy buffalo upon one wall, and a variety of other taxidermy birds, deer, and even a fisher. The dinner was quiteMonday,good. we drove up the mountain to Rickett’s Glen State Park’s beach where I took a quick dip in the lake at the peak of that day’s heat. The dogs also had a chance to play in the water in a muddy area beyond the beach (no dogs allowed on the beach itself). After the swims, we drove to the base of the mountain to take a short hike through the stand of old growth trees which line the creek at the bottom of the Falls Trail. This spot is very special with huge trees along the walk path. After this we retreated to the lodge and enjoyed a quiet afternoon in the AC. By Tuesday we were back at our office to finish the Journals for that week and start on this newspaper. On the 14th, we took our dogs and headed to Knoebels to see The Mahoney Brothers perform, arriving to see two of their shows. Their evening show was Beatles and Beyond, my favorite of the shows they do as they celebrate the music of the band members after it broke up. There was music from Paul, Ringo, George and John, building to a wonderful Beatles set of tunes as a finale. There must have been over a thousand of us watching. It was a good thing I had a seat with my rolling walker as every spot on every bench was full. We enjoyed some food, but passed on rides that day something we rarely have done in 30+ years of going. I hope to be back on rides soon, after a scheduled surgery for me. We attended the Carbon County Fair on its closing day. That’s the day the 4-H critter auction is held, something we find very entertaining. While we were there, Dr. Oz the senate candidate and Lisa Scheller, our candidate for congress, turned up. Ruth got to meet Oz, and I had a few minutes to talk with Scheller. Ruth and I were in a photo in the Times News of folks at the auction the photo featured by Seth Isenberg

The new Bruno, Chief of Police mystery arrived this week on our doorstep. This winter, we had preordered Martin Walker’s To Kill a Troubadour. I enjoyed the book in a nice air-conditioned room at our house, escaping the hot August days to take a trip to southern France one chapter at a time. Ruth finished an English mystery by Elizabeth George and is now reading the Walker book. Looking into September, local orchards have told us that early apple season should be underway over Labor Day weekend. Regarding locally grown items, we’ve been enjoying some wonderful sweet corn, and luscious peaches.

Pro football has started its season and soon, college games will fill the sports channels. I love college football and will be following many of the Division 1 and FCS teams from Pennsylvania, plus a few nationally as they catch my fancy… plus the New England Patriots, Philly Eagles and the Bucs.

Lake Harmony Volun teer Fire Company was called out 47 times in July.

The first ever Penn Forest Park festival is September 24 from 10 to 6. As my health permits, I plan to be there most of the day at a booth for the Journal. The annual Celtic Classic in Bethlehem on the 23rd, 24th and 25th. It’s free, running late morning into through about 9 p.m. We’ll likely attend on Sunday as weather and energy allows. There are four stages of music, two event spaces, and lots of food and vendors.Here’s to a wonderful end to August and some early September fun. To all our readers, good health to you.

The LHVFC responded to fifteen EMS responses, five crashes with injuries, and a crash with extrication of the victim. There was a passenger car fire, a cooking fire, and a truck fire on the highway. The volunteers were out for a search for a person in the wa ter, and also for three rescues. There were 9 smoke detec tor activations (no fires), 3 alarm calls due to a malfunc tion and 1 activation but no fire. Five calls were cancelled enEightroute.of the calls were in Albrightsville including three in Hickory Run State Park, and the rest in Lake Harmo ny.Seven of the smoke detec tor-related calls were to the Mountain Laurel Resort.

Sightings

Oz who had bid on a goat. We were in the back, paying attention to the auction. It was a surprise.

On the 19th, we were at the Harford Fair to help the local Rotary club for that area cover their fair booth for a four-hour shift. It was a lot of Hellos and handing out Dum-Dum suckers. We were surprised to meet two Journal readers from the Blakeslee area who stopped by our booth and were equally surprised to find us.

As we finished last week’s Journal-Herald, we walked out of our front door to find a doe lying on our front lawn in the area we’ve been growing herbs and flowers, which explains a lot about what has been eating our plants. She was a bit hard to move along, but I was able to shoo her away before bringing the dogs out. She moseyed off down the street.

Fire Reports

The AVFC also was out five times for QRS medical calls, twice on automatic alarms (no fire), and once each for a search and rescue in Hick ory Run State Park, setting up for medical helicopter landing, a vehicle crash, a ve hicle fire, and a call onto the Turnpike.

Albrightsville Volunteer Fire Company was called out 33 times in July, 22 of those as mutual aid with Lake Harmony VFC.

The Harford Fair is big, with a nice set of permanent buildings and a large grandstand with a huge stage across the way. That night was a rodeo, and the stands were full for a pretty good show. Competition was a bit thin, except in barrel racing, but there was enough, plus a decent clown and a trick riding demonstration. I was using the rolling walker that day, so was on the handicapped platform for the show, and a gorgeous sunset. Sightings these weeks were varied, including a herd of goats on the berm of the turnpike an eco-friendly lawn mowing crew. I think I saw a fisher crossing the road in Hickory Run State Park. Heading home one night, I saw a coyote. There are a fair number of butterflies, some foxes, wild turkeys, and hawks.

STR Meeting Continued from page 1

Just four days after Carbon County Commissioner Chris Lukasevich, chair, NACo’s Veterans and Military Ser vices Committee launched Operation Green Light for Veterans with his National Association of County Veter ans Service Officers (NACV SO) colleague and president Nichole Coleman at NACo’s 2022 Annual Conference in Aurora, CO, Carbon County became the first county in the United States to sign a resolution proclaiming its participation in the nation wide campaign and claiming the title of the nation’s first Green Light for Veterans County.Carbon signaled that select county buildings will be illu minated green November 7 through 13 as part of Opera tion Green Light, a national collaborative initiative of the NACo to support mili tary veterans, as well as raise awareness about the unique challenges faced by many veterans and the resourc es that are available at the county, state, and federal level to assist veterans and their“Sincefamilies.thetragedy of Sep tember 11, 2001, our nation’s voluntary military force mem bers, and their families, have made immense sacrifices for our safety and security over a two-decade period,” said Lukasevich “Similar to the sacrifices of previous gener ations of our armed forces, this service to country also often results in significant stress to many of the veter ans who served in times of war and conflict. We want to make sure our veterans and their families know that their service mattered, that we are grateful for their sacrifices, and that it is now our turn to make sure they are served by their county government and our community. To this end, See

Carbon’s three Veteran Ser vice Officers, who operate out of our Veterans Affairs Office at 44 Susquehanna Street in Jim Thorpe, will intensify their effort as the proverbial bridge between veterans, their family members, and at times their widows and earned ben efits.” Residents and businesses are encouraged to participate by simply changing one light bulb in their house to a green bulb. This can be an exteri or light that neighbors and passersby see, or an interior light that sparks a conversa tion with friends. By shining a green light, we let our veterans know that they are seen, appreciated, and supported. While this event is focused around the week of Veterans Day (No vember 7-13), participants are encouraged to share their participation on social media using the hashtag #Opera tionGreenLight.“OperationGreen Light is a simple way to express our collective appreciation for the public service of our veterans,” said NACo Pres ident Denise Winfrey. “We encourage everyone to join us in displaying a green light for our veterans and to also reflect on how we, as a na tion and at the county level, assist our military service personnel back into civilian life upon completion of their service to our country.” Visit naco.org/ operationgreenlight for more information and links to resources available to veterans.

PAGE 10 THE JOURNAL OF PENN-KIDDER, AUGUST-SEPTEMBER, 2022

“The quality of life is not what I wanted,” pointing out that these STRs are hotels.

Pete Rasp, Sr., complained that “nothing gets done,” also noting that “Towamensing Trails’ bylaws do not allow businesses” to operate in homes in the community.

THE JOURNAL OF PENN-KIDDER, AUGUST-SEPTEMBER, 2022 — PAGE 11 the bases. The pump track proposed for the property will be put out to bid via PennBid. The food truck vendor who wanted to be at the township park will begin his three months at the park inToddAugust.Fox of the Park committee asked about selling nameplates to help pay for the park benches. Roadmaster supervisor Roger Meckes reported that this year’s paving projects are done, with line striping to be done this month. The township’s crew, which is doing a lot of work while short-staffed, is “doing a good job.” They are mowing and picking up along the roadsides. They also helped install the batting cage at the park.Bills of $105,338 from July were approved to be paid –the biggest being a refund of a fire escrow of $25,629, taxes, insurances, $10,000 for a tilting grading bucket for the tractor, the CPA firm for the yearly audits, code and engineering services, legal services, and $3,000 to Keystone Concrete. From the treasurer’s report, there’s $3,230,643 in the general fund, and $5,822,461 in the certificates of Indeposit.other emergencysupervisorsbusiness,approved:therevised(2022)operations

plan; • a judgement on a zoning violation of $12,279 on the Rehl property; • continuing the declaration of disaster emergency related to COVID; • advertising to fill the new position of working foreman on the township’s roads crew; • a well isolation distance exemption for an Indian Mountain Lake couple; • and approval for Fire Police from Penn Forest Volunteer Fire Companies #1 and #2 to provide traffic control at the Carbon County Fair. There were 48 rightto-know requests, and 37 zoning & septic requests fulfilled. Public comment was primarily about STRs. There were continued complaints about Granicus’ system not doing the job, with most of the speakers urging the town meeting. Peg Dusablon, who has four STRs on her block in Towamensing Trails, said that her “quality of life has gone to @%*,” and nobody cares. Some speakers pointed Penn Forest supervisors to the new Tobyhanna Township STR ordinance.

“A lot of people are pissed,” heKathyconcluded.Black complained that after eight years, suddenly their cul de sac has sprouted two STRs. Work is underway toward the first Fall Crafts and Township Festival, which will be held at the Penn Forest Township Park from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on September 24. There will be music and food, a kids’ area, plus crafts and other vendors. Contact the township to become a vendor.

Henrietta and her husband came to Reeders United Methodist Church in 1972. They loved the friendliness atmosphere and fellowship of the church, and also enjoyed the wonderful Sunday School programs. She began teaching Sunday School from the beginning and taught for many years. She belonged to the United Methodist Women, sang in the choir, ushered when asked, and oversaw the kitchen for funerals and other activities. Later, she ran the prayer chain for the church and counseled and worked with many other members in need. She was a literal pillar of the church for a long time. She was a graduate of Saint Mary’s Hospital in 1961 and worked in Scranton, then later at Pocono Hospital as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN).
