BATH FOOD BANK was shown to Walt and Bonnie Hafner by Jeannie Wagner. – Home News photos
Bath Lions hear how local Food bank helps families ”When children are hungry, others in the family are, too,” said Jeannie Judd Wagner this past Wednesday, as she spoke to members of the Bath Lions and Lioness Clubs at a joint installation meeting in the fellowship hall of St. John’s Lutheran Church. Bath Area Food Bank distribution day was that Monday, as more than 100 people came through to receive bags of groceries to feed their families. Mrs. Wagner and The Rev. Frances Merkel, who administers the soup kitchen at
Christ UCC Church in Bath called “Loaves & Fishes”, told how families who are struggling from being out of work are in desperate need of food. The food bank, located at St. John’s Church, serves more than 200 families with bags that contain about $50 worth of non-perishable food items (40 pounds) that can sustain them between days of distribution. Additional food is provided for families with two or more children, and the food bank gives coupons for milk as well as fresh bread. Many
As another school year comes to an end, Colonial Intermediate Unit 20 celebrated the achievements of 24 exceptional students at the annual graduation ceremony on May 26. Students from the Multidisability Support, Life Skills Support, Physical Support and Autistic Support programs participated in the celebration of their accomplishments throughout their time in CIU 20 classrooms. After welcoming remarks by CIU 20’s Executive Director Dr. Charlene M. Brennan, Dr. Gail Vogel, CIU 20’s Director of Special Education, delivered the evening’s keynote address to students. The 2011 commencement speech was delivered by Clint Heisler, from the Physical Support Program at Northampton Area High
School (home school district is Pen Argyl Area School District). With his service dog, Freedom, by his side, Clint delivered a message of inspiration to his fellow graduates, acknowledging that they have had help from teachers, fellow students, families and even a service dog to help them reach their graduation day. Now they find themselves prepared for their next journey in life, whether it is as an employee entering the workforce or a community volunteer. As he bid his fellow graduates good wishes, Clint said “My goal is to do something that I will enjoy and will help others. I also want to work at a place that respects Freedom. I wish to be accepted and included in my community, and I wish that
for my fellow graduates as well.” He continued, “ We have all learned so much over the years from our families, teachers and staff at IU 20. I know we will take those lessons into our futures and apply them to get the most out of our lives. To be as independent as possible and enjoy the freedoms of life…that’s what it means to be a high school graduate.” Student’s families, in addition to IU staff, board members, and school district representatives from the student’s home school district, were in attendance at the ceremony. Each student was called by name by an intermediate unit special education administrator and district representative to come forward and receive an IU graduation certificate Continued on page 10

Three ordinances presented To Lehigh Twsp. Supervisors By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News
LIONS AND LIONESS presidents Jack Metcalf and Andrea Figura hold gavel after they were installed by PDG Ray Taylor.
Lehigh Township’s Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, June 14 had three ordinances before them. – One that included amendments to stormwater management, subdivision and land development, and zoning ordinances was okayed. – Pursuant to Act 32 of the Pa. Legislature, an earned tax ordinance in which the county will collect was approved to advertise for adoption. –A proposed brake retarder ordinance was tabled. A
Lehigh Township fire official said their fire trucks will use them, and Supervisor Keith Hantz said it is a safety factor. Sidewalk Deferral • A deferral was granted the Archery Addictions development for putting sidewalks on the west side of their parking lot. Engineer Phil Malitsch said a deferral would be more appropriate than a blanket waiver of the sidewalks. If another owner with a warehouse or some other business would occupy the side, sidewalks would be needed. The Supervisors okayed the defer-
ral until a change may be required for another owner. The Lehigh Valley Planning Commission had already granted conditional preliminary approval to the development, and the Supervisors did likewise. Old Post Office In May, Supervisor Dell Grove said he was contacted by a small group of residents in the Cherryville area who have concerns regarding the old post office and the Betty Seidel home, both at the Cherryville intersecContinued on page 14

Iran
The biggest question for U.S. (and Israeli) policy in the Middle East concerns Iran, whether or not this anti-American country is close to the acquisition of its first nuclear weapon. Recent updated information indicates Iran is closer to gaining nuclear power than had been anticipated. Thus the question is what difference in U.S. (and Israeli) foreign policy this will justify. For Israel, a very small country, which could be devastated by a bomb or two, many believe it cannot allow a hostile Arab country to come into possession of nuclear weapons. That was the danger once posed by Syria. An Israeli military strike eliminated the Syrian threat. A similar premptive strike against Iranian targets seems a growing possibility. Israel has many nuclear weapons and has possessed them for years. No Arab neighbor is threatening, unless one begins to acquire weapons. This, now, is a growing, current, concern.
Sarah Palin
Speculation is widespread about the political intentions and future of Sarah Palin--understandably. Not only is the former Alaska governor a striking appearance and impressive speaker, she is what many believe a means of gathering in most of the female vote--a larger percentage of the U.S. total vote than male vote. The view of many is that she would be about as much a vote getter for Republicans next year as the vice presidential nominee as the top nominee. That would allow another major vote-getter, such as Mitt Romney, to add to the G.O.P. ticket. Thus, many believe, a Romney-Palin ticket would be a vote-getting combination. It’s still early in the 2012 presidential derby but some are already boosting this combination as the most likely to win next November’s election. Some believe, however, Obama’s chance of reelection, is being underestimated. Obama is an effective speaker, a tireless campaigner, but he faces difficult economic conditions. It is, of course, too early to predict the outcome of next summer’s G.O.P. convention. But as of now a Romney-Palin ticket is the most talked, and also favored, among many Republicans.

Opinion Our Health is Overinsured! By Tracy Miller One of the arguments for healthcare reform is that millions of Americans with employer-provided healthcare are underinsured. Proponents of this view are saying that people are underinsured if they are paying too many of their healthcare costs out-ofpocket. Quite the contrary, a little reflection on what insurance is and is supposed to do suggests that the problem is really the opposite: many, if not most Americans are overinsured—they have too much health insurance coverage. On what basis can I claim that Americans have too much health insurance? The purpose of insurance is to protect people from risk. Private companies offer affordable insurance against losses from automobile accidents, accidental death, fires, storms, and floods, among other things. These kinds of insurance arose in response to people’s willingness to pay for a contract that will compensate them for losses due to a relatively low probability event over which the insured party has little or no control. Yet, unlike other kinds of insurance, most of what is covered by many health-insurance plans does not fit this description. This is why so many people who do not have employer-provided health insurance are either uninsured or purchase only catastrophic coverage. The problem with many existing health-insurance plans is that they cover the cost of routine treatment for illnesses, such as colds and flu that occur frequently, or the cost of care for conditions, such as pregnancy, that are heavily dependent upon the choices of the person who is insured. Basic economics teaches that paying for routine treatment via a third-party insurance company will raise the total cost of that treatment. This happens for two reasons: First, the insurance company, as middleman between the consumer and the healthcare provider, has costs that must come out of what the consumer pays. Second, insurance that pays for routine care lowers the cost of each doctor visit to the consumer, thus increasing demand. Higher demand with a given supply means higher prices. It does not matter whether consumers or employers pay health-insurance premiums. The premiums are part of the cost of healthcare. Eliminating routine care from being covered by health insurance would mean premiums would decrease and employers could pass the savings along to their employees as higher wages. The average
consumer would be better off as a result. If it were not for the tax deductibility of health-insurance premiums, employers would not cover routine care and treatment for preventable conditions as much as they do. This is not to deny that many Americans do not have sufficient access to affordable healthcare or that the inability of some to afford health insurance is something we should be concerned about. Although it does not make sense for insurance to cover the ordinary medical costs of child birth, treating chronic asthma, or flu symptoms, it may be a good idea to have insurance in case of complications resulting from childbirth or to cover hospitalization for pneumonia and other serious illnesses. The best way to help those who cannot afford basic health insurance is not to require or subsidize the kind of comprehensive health-insurance plans that most employers now offer. On the contrary, healthcare costs and the cost of health insurance that would cover life-threatening illnesses and serious accidents would be considerably lower if the existing system of taxes, subsidies, and government regulations did not result in so many people being overinsured. Dr. Tracy C. Miller is an associate professor of economics at Grove City College and contributing scholar with The Center for Vision & Values. He holds a Ph.D. from University of Chicago.

Father’s Day was really nice weather-wise, and so lots of families had a chance for a backyard cook-out if they wanted. Actually, it’s been kinda nice for a while, so it’s our chance to enjoy it. Summer began on Tuesday, the 21st, so it’s time for outdoor fun, carnivals, picnics, trips down at the shore or up in the mountains, in general a time to relax and enjoy ourselves. That’s what I like about the four seasons. We have a little bit of everything. Sometimes the weather’s rotten, but when the sun comes out for a few days and it’s not so humid, then it’s perfect. Reckon it’s what you make of it. . . . By the way, I didn’t get a tie for Father’s Day, got a shirt instead, and it’s right nice, and so are the cookies! . . . . I hear Ronnie and Millie Silfies are enjoying life with their family now that they’ve moved down South. . . . I’m hearing more and more about knee replacements these days, and in some cases it’s worked out pretty well, and in others not so much. Don’t think I’d like to go through the agony of it, if it doesn’t work. . . . Got some strawberries down at the farmer’s market. They were a little small, but still tasted great. Elmira made a strawberry shortcake and we had it for Father’s Day. Ummm-m, good! . . . .Ye Olde Editor asked me to put a plug in for some young’uns to attend conservation school. They’ve been doing it for 30 years, and this year they’re having a tough time trying to find kids 14 to 17 years old that wanta go to camp. Mom and Dad, Grammy and Pappy, give ‘em a little push. Tell them to bring their friends along if they’re the right age. He said he’d have the particulars in his outdoors column in this week’s paper. . . . Man’s inhumanity to man seems to be coming around here, when we always thought it was some other places. The latest
in Bethlehem is another gruesome one. . . . I hope that the benefit they had Saturday in Northampton for the families who lost four to knifings was a success. . . . Big pipeline project going on down along 512 as warehouses keep building up. And with all of ‘em are tractor-trailers that are really crowding our local roads. But from what I read in a city paper the other day, there’s not much money around to do any by-pass work, and probably nothing will be done in our lifetime. . . . IronPigs are something like their parent Phillies. They have a winning record, even if they aren’t hitting worth much. . . . Think I’ll grab a few winks or Z’s in the hammock. Take care and have a good week, gang.

It was hosted by Post 470 and hailed as a very successful event. Arie Sites of Post 223 in Shippensburg captured this year’s championship. Post 470’s Brandon Frey finished runner-up; third place went to Chris Baez of Post 158, and fourth to David Schukraft of Post 926. Arie Sites secured Medalist. All of these fathers and sons were winners or runners-up in tyhis year’s tournament: Aries Sites - Arthur Sites, Anthony “Chic” Liberto - Anthony Liberto, Jr., Rudy Faustner - Jake Faustner, and Sherwood “Chow” Silfies, Sr. Sherwood Silfies, Jr. “As Post 470 hosted the tournament, they did a terrific job,” Sipple said. “The members of the Post, the Auxiliary Unit, and Squadron went far and beyond the call. The Whitetail Golf Course staff were also at their very best. I’ve gotten nothing but rave reviews from the golfers concerning the Legion post and the golf course,” Sipple said. The 2012 state tournament will be held at Mountain Valley Golf Course, hosted by Post #398 in Frackville.
The flight results were as follows at Whitetail: Flight 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

children get free lunches at school, but in the summer they are without, unless the food bank can help. The food bank gets lots of support from area churches, Mrs. Wagner said, as well as donations, for they need to buy $1,500 worth of food a month, as well as what they get from Second Harvest in Allentown. She told of a farmer who harvested beans and put them in individual bags to help out. People who are on medications often need some specific foods and that is provided. Hams and turkeys are provided at Thanksgiving, but in some cases such as boarders, they might not have a stove to cook them, so other provisions are made. The soup kitchen at Christ Church serves free hot meals on the second Saturday of the month. And recently, a second one was opened at St. John’s UCC Church in Nazareth, where it is open on the third Saturday, so families can have cooked meals on two successive Saturdays in a month, Rev. Merkel said. Officers Installed Past District Governor Ray Taylor of Dist. 14-K installed these club officers: LIONS – Jack Metcalf, pres.; Marvin Werkheiser, 1st vice pres.; Charles Billings, 2nd vice pres.; Walt Hafner, 3rd vice pres.; Daniel Spengler, secy.; Gail Metcalf and Dorothy Reimer, treas.; Wm.

Cement Worker Of Month
Richard George
By ED PANY
THE HOME NEWS June 23-29, 2011 with all areas of the plant and go where needed. I enjoy my daily routine and know probably everyone in the plant.” Mr. George has witnessed many changes at the plant as automation has increased production. He said, “We have good workers at the plant and I hope the future is bright for the cement industry.” The George’s are proud of son Jeffrey and grandsons Brandon, Justin and Denning. Richard is an avid Pittsburgh Steeler and Duke basketball fan. The family enjoys vacations at their Sullivan Country cabin. I found Mr. George to be a loyal and dedicated cement worker with a friendly personality, who appreciates his job. He said, “The company provided my family with a good standard of living.” Richard is a member of the Kutztown American Legion and the Kutztown Lions and Topton Fire Companies. The family resides in Kutztown. I wish Mr. George good health as he contemplates retirement and continued success to all my friends at the century old plant. Each month The Home News recognizes and honors a local cement worker.
Perfect Person
Lehigh Heidelberg Cement Mr. Richard George was born in the Kutztown area and graduated from Kutztown High School in 1961. He worked at both a garage and a shoe factory earning $1.25 an hour. He recalls, “Uncle Sam called me in 1968 and I was sent to Fort Benning and Fort Sill, Oklahoma for intensive training in artillery. While on leave, I married Pamela Parkard my wife for 43 years.” Richard joined the 8th Army and was assigned to West Germany. It was the Cold War era. His Pennsylvania German background enabled him to converse with local residents. His unit was based in a forested region of Germany. He said, “The scenery reminded me of home. The Army stressed discipline and respect, values I have attempted to follow throughout my working career.” Mr. George’s father was a long time Allentown Cement Company employee, now Lehigh Heidelberg at the Evansville plant. Richard joined his father in July 1971 as a Bradley Mill Operator at $3.75 an hour. For a number of years he worked as a cement packer, when packing stressed manual labor. Packers were paid by contract, piece work. The more you packed, the more you earned. He fondly remembers old timers who shared their knowledge with him: William Didyoung, Kenny and Jerry Miller, Adam Prock and Henry

Matt Hirschman beats out Earl Paules at Mahoning Mahoning Valley Speedway has become infamous for their 100 lap Modified races and Saturday night was yet another prime example as Northampton’s Matt Hirschman came from third to first in a spectacularly wild finish over Earl Paules on the final circuit in Hand 2 of the Modified 100 Poker Series in a night of racing that won’t soon be forgotten. Even though fans had sat through 100 laps of action, the race came down to the final turn of the final lap when Anthony Sesely attempted to squeeze underneath Paules but in the process caused them both to spin. With not much room to spare, Paules was holding his line yet Sesely still forced the issue as he turned to the very bottom of the track in an attempt at the lead. With racing room at a minimum, they made contact with both losing control. Paules went into a tailspin while Sesely slid off track. Although moving backwards Paules was still heading towards the finish line as the race leader while at the same time third running Hirschman had taken evasive action to the very top grove. As they headed to Dick Brown’s waving checkers,
Hirschman eked ahead by mere inches and it would be the only time in which he led. John Markovic emerged home in third with John Bennett and Mike Carroll completing the top five. Sesely never recovered and wound up a disappointing 11th. “What a race! I was so excited once I crossed the line and we were just one adjustment from having a car that would have outright won the race. But you never give up in these. When the checkered flag is in sight you just put it to the floor and it just all worked out,” said Hirschman who pocketed $3000. “It’s always good hard racing here. Mahoning Valley Speedway at its best with another fantastic finish.” Fast timer Don Wagner redrew the pole and was joined at the front by Sesely who was making his first Mahoning start of the season. Once under way Wagner was far and away the dominating force as he built substantial leads throughout the first 50 laps. Pushing a hard pace, however, would be his pitfall as his tires went away and during a lap 54 restart Sesely was able to stay even with him Continued on page 15

D.A.R.E., money presentations Highlights of Council meeting By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News
Two of five essay winners in a recent D.A.R.E. program completed at Siegfried Elementary School read their essays and received awards on Thursday night at a semi-monthly meeting of Northampton Borough Council. Another presentation benefited three groups in the borough, when three checks were given from the late Verna O’Reilly’s estate. Giving the D.A.R.E. essays were Rachel Stoll and Logan Buskaritz. After they were read, Police Chief Ron Morey presented both youngsters plaques for their excellent participation in learning how to deal with drugs and alcohol abuse. 120 sixth grade students had taken the course at Siegfried School. The surprise of the night was when Solicitor William McCarthy presented checks of $21,366 each to the Northampton Fire Department, Northampton Emergency Squad, and the Northampton Police Department for their equipment fund. Other Matters • Council repealed two ordinances. One dealt with sex offender restrictions, but the State Supreme Court has ruled that state law supersedes it. If not repealed, the
borough could have been sued, McCarthy said. A second ordinance repealed established a personnel merit system for borough employees, and is in conflict with the labor contracts. • Michael Wolfer of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney was retained to handle two major pension accounts, but investments will remain the same as they were with MetLife State Street Securities. • Handicapped parking spaces were okayed for 51 W. 17th St. and 3002 Eisenhower Drive. • It was noted by Councilman Robert Coleman that last week’s Paw Prints on the Canal was very successful. • LeRoy Brobst has been sending delinquent trash bills to the district judge for collection. Outstanding are bills totaling $71,360. The names of those delinquents may be publicized. • Councilman Mike Bernini announced that the public swimming pool opened on June 5 after a water leak had been repaired. . . .Public Works has been painting the metal rides at Canal Street Park. . . .The final concert of the season will be given on June 29 at the Canal Street gazebo by The Celtic Adventure. • Councilman Robert McHale reported that Chief

UP ON THE ROOF TOP!
We have certainly seen some wicked thunderstorms roll through our area these past few weeks. Hopefully your home didn’t sustain any damage, especially your roof. It may be a good time to get up on your ladder or use a pair of binoculars to check your roof for shingles that may have blown off, nail “pops” where the nails have pushed the shingle up in the air, and water stains where leaks are occurring. Also check your gutters and downspouts for granules from the shingles that can also indicate wear and tear of your roof. Be sure to keep your gutters clog-free. When water isn’t properly drained away from your house, it can lead to mold and mildew under the roof. Miller Supply Ace Hardware stocks a full line of quality roofing materials by GAF-Elk roofing, Napco siding and soffit, and Berger Building Products gutters and accessories. We have a fleet of trucks which can deliver to your home or job site, including roof-top delivery! Home-owners, if you need a referral for a roofing contractor, give us a call! Miller Supply Ace Hardware will help you keep a quality roof over your head!
Morey had an Allentown Police Dept. SWAT team give a demonstration to Siegfried School students as part of D.A.R.E. In addition to a speed trailer that notes how fast motorists are traveling, Council voted to purchase a smaller unit that is attached to a utility pole. It costs $1,200. McHale said that in one week, along Laubach Ave., 30,000 cars were counted. The police department last month handled 30 traffic violations, 7 nontraffic violations, issued 57 parking tickets, made 3 arrests, and responded to 154 incidents. • The fire department collected more than $2,000 in a recent coin toss at 21st & Main Streets. • Councilman Joe Leitgeb’s report showed: that flower beds were cleaned and flowers planted; the new street sweeper will arrive June 30. He also noted that a Boy Scout troop had a proper flag burning ceremony, and that there is a box at the VFW for people to dispose of ragged American flags. • Boro Manager Gene Zarayko said that grass has been cut at six to ten places a week where homes were abandoned. . . .Special meeting may be needed because of a sewage agreement problem with Allen Twsp. and police officer litigation. He reported that $1,250 had been received from the Northampton County hotel tax and it will be used to buy a computer system so that the Atlas Cement Memorial
Museum can keep track of its inventory. . . . Swimming pool receipts are up from other years. . . .Girl Scouts put in a floral planter box at the Northampton Area Food Bank. • Council okayed a portion of an alley at the rear of Lincoln Ave. to be closed for a post-graduation party for Jayde Hooven.
Lentz Rising Star in Revolver Competition Team Smith and Wesson’s Josh Lentz of Northampton won 10 of 14 stages as he dominated the field on his way to winning the Classic division title at the 20th Annual Smith & Wesson International Revolver Championship last weekend in San Luis Obispo, Calif. Leading the Classic division field from start to finish, Lentz placed 18th overall in the match with a final time of 290.89 seconds, putting him over 54 second ahead of his nearest competitor. “Josh is among the rising
stars in revolver competition. Last year he posted a very strong fourth place finish in the Limited division and now he’s our IRC champion in the Classic division. I think this is the first of many title wins we’ll see from Josh,” said Ron Joslin of ICORE. Second place in the Classic division went to Craig Buckland, the defending champion and Team Smith & Wesson member from Sandisfield, Mass., who won two stages with a final time of 345.23 seconds. Cliff Walsh of St. Petersburg, Fla. took third with a time of 361.03. Rounding out the top five were Troy Mattheyer of Ellis, Kan. who took fourth with one stage win and a time of 365.72, and Harold Nicholson of Norman, Okla. in fifth with a time of 371.72 seconds. Among the senior shooters competing in the division, Cedric Yoshimura of Simi Valley, Calif. won the Senior Classic division title with a time of 448.16 while Roger Reid of Bentonville, Ark. won the Super Senior title in a time of 434.34 seconds.

Chamber to host July 4th Kazoo parade, program The Nazareth Area Chamber of Commerce will host the annual kazoo parade and patriotic program on Monday, July 4th, that has become a Nazareth tradition. Those wishing to participate in the parade will start at the Nazareth High School at 9:30 a.m. Walkers will be separated into divisions, all assigned different patriotic songs to play on the kazoos, which have been donated by Lafayette Ambassador Bank. From the high school, the parade route will take the marchers up S. Liberty Street, and make a right turn on to Belvidere St., follow until Main St., and make a right turn up to the circle, go half way around and turn on to W. Center St. and end at Borough Council chambers.
When arriving there, greetings will be given by local elected officials as well as Congressman Charlie Dent. The grand marshal of the parade this year is Abbe “Miss G” Graber, known as the “Kazoo Lady of Woodstock”. She has been singing the blues and playing a blues style wooden kazoo for more than 30 years. Her company, Woodstock Wooden Kazoos, opened on the 40th anniversary of the original music festival in 1969 and each kazoo is handcrafted and resembles the beauty of the surrounding mountains. In addition, patriotic entertainment will be featured by the Lehigh Valley Idol, and there will be a display of Miss G’s wooden kazoos available for purchase.

Experiencing Worship
Quinn Caldwell once spoke about a conversation about attending church: A faithful churchgoer was talking with a skeptical friend about why he bothered going to church. The friend asked him what his favorite part of the service was. “Oh, I love most of it: the songs, the Doxology, Communion. The pastoral prayer can be pretty boring sometimes, but I even get something out of that. Overall, though, I guess I would say I get the most out of the sermon.” “How many sermons do you think you’ve sat through in your life?” the friend asked. The man said, “Oh, I don’t know. Couple thousand?” “And do you remember them all?” “Of course not!” “Then why bother? What’s the point?” The man though about it for a moment, then asked, “Do you remember every meal you’ve ever eaten?” “No.” “Neither do I,” replied the man. “But I sure am glad I ate them.” The worship experience will be different for each person who comes to the worship service. Two hundred people might attend the same worship service, and each person will have a different experience depending upon how the power of the Holy Spirit rests on each one. For one, the music might be uplifting or it might bring peace to some inner turmoil; for another the words of the liturgy may offer renewed hope. Another person may find the words of the prayer will speak to their own heart; and someone else may find guidance and direction in the words of the sermon. And many people find the connection with other Christians before, during and after the worship brings a sense of communion in the power of Jesus Christ. What does the Holy Spirit have in mind for you? Be mindful the next time you worship to gain a sense of the uplifting power of the Holy Spirit in your life. If you have not come to a church service for a while, why not come and open your senses to experience worship in a new way. You may be glad you did.

PUBLIC NOTICE Borough of Bath
Estate of Mabel E. Lindenmoyer, late of Allen Township, Northampton County, PA. Letters Testamentary have been granted to the undersigned, who request all persons having claims or demands against the estate of the decedent to make known the same, and all persons indebted to the decedent to make payments without delay to: Raymond H. Lindenmoyer, Jr., c/o his attorney, FRANK M. SKRAPITS, ESQ, Affiliated with Steckel and Stopp, 2152 Main Street, Northampton, PA 180671211.
NOTICE is hereby given that Borough Council of the Borough of Bath will meet in the Borough of Bath Municipal Building located at 215 East Main Street, Bath, Northampton County, Pennsylvania, on Monday, July 11, 2011, at 7:00 P.M. for the purpose of conducting its public meeting and the possible enactment of a proposed Ordinance summarized as follows: AN ORDINANCE RE-ENACTING, RESTATING AND AMENDING THE BOROUGH OF BATH EARNED INCOME TAX TO ESTABLISH CONFORMITY WITH THE LOCAL TAX ENABLING ACT AS AMENDED BY ACT 32 OF JULY 2, 2008 TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that, on July 2, 2008, the Pennsylvania Legislature enacted Public Law 197, Act No. 32, which, inter alia, provided for the consolidated collection of local income taxes within a tax collection district established in each county under Section 504 of Act 32 for tax years beginning not later than on and after January 1, 2012. Borough Council previously enacted Ordinance Nos. 252 and 471 (collectively, “Bath’s Earned Income Tax”) imposing a tax at the rate of one percent (1%) for general revenue purposes on earned income and net profits. Borough Council desires to reenact, restate and amend in its entirety Bath’s Earned Income Tax in order to conform with the provisions of Act 32. Borough Council has determined that the continued imposition of Bath’s Earned Income Tax is necessary to enable the Borough to meet the increasing costs associated with its providing services.

PUblic notice-Legal Continued from page 13 Sec. 1937. e. Applicable Laws, Regulations, Policies, and Procedures. The Tax shall be collected and administered in accordance with (1) all applicable laws and regulations; and (2) rules, regulations, policies and procedures adopted by the TCC or by the Tax Officer in conformity with the Local Tax Enabling Act. This includes any regulations, policies, and procedures adopted in the future to the maximum extent allowed by 1 Pa.C.S.A. Sec. 1937. Section 3. No Exemption from Tax. Although credits and deductions against Tax are permitted under certain circumstances as provided in applicable law and regulations, no individuals are exempt from Tax based on age, income, or other factors. Section 4. Taxpayer Tax Returns, Declarations and Payments. Every Taxpayer receiving earned income or earning net profits in any Tax Year shall make and file Tax Returns and declarations and pay Tax in accordance with the Local Tax Enabling Act and the rules, regulations, policies and procedures of the TCC and Tax Officer. A Taxpayer is required to file timely an annual Tax Return even if no Tax payment is due and owing. In addition, even though a resident of the Borough did not have earned income or net profits in the prior Tax Year, the resident must file an annual Tax Return, when requested to do so by the Tax Officer, stating the reason why there was no income or net profits to report. Section 5. Employer Withholding, Remittance, and Tax Returns. Every employer shall register, require employee residency certificates, withhold and remit Tax, and file Tax Returns and withholding statements in accordance with the Local Tax Enabling Act and the rules, regulations, policies and procedures of the TCC and Tax Officer.

The Tax Officer is authorized to file an action in the name of the Borough for the recovery of the Tax due to the Borough and unpaid. Nothing in this section shall affect the authority of the Borough to file
an action in its own name for collection of the Tax under the Local Tax Enabling Act. b. Criminal Complaints for Violations.

The Tax Officer may retain reasonable costs of collection in accordance with Local Tax Enabling Act and as approved by the TCC. Section 8. Severability. The provisions of this Ordinance are severable and if any of its provisions are ruled by a court invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect or impair any of the remaining provisions of this Ordinance. It is declared to be the intention of the governing body of the Borough that this Ordinance would have been adopted if such invalid or unconstitutional provision had not been included. Section 9. Purpose/repeal. The primary purpose of this Ordinance is to conform the Borough’s currently existing earned income and net profits tax to the Local Tax Enabling Act, as amended and restated by Act 32 of 2008, and to do so within the time frame required by Act 32. Any prior ordinance or part of any prior ordinance conflicting with the provisions of this Ordinance is rescinded insofar as the conflict exists. To the extent the provisions of this Ordinance are the same as any ordinance in force immediately prior to adoption of this Ordinance, the provisions of this Ordinance are intended as a continuation of such prior ordinance and not as a new ordinance. If this Ordinance is declared invalid, any prior ordinance levying a similar tax shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected in any manner by adoption of this Ordinance. The provisions of this Ordinance shall not affect any act done or liability incurred, nor shall such provisions affect
any suit or prosecution pending or to be initiated to enforce any right or penalty or to punish any offense under the authority of any ordinance in force prior to adoption of this Ordinance. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, this Ordinance shall supersede and repeal on the Effective Date any ordinance levying a tax on earned income or net profits in force immediately prior to the Effective Date. The Tax imposed by this Ordinance shall not apply to any person as to whom it is beyond the legal power of the Borough to impose the Tax herein provided under the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Section 10. Construction. This Ordinance is intended to be consistent with the Local Tax Enabling Act. The Ordinance is intended to include all necessary authorizations to permit the Tax Officer to take all actions for the collection, administration, disbursement, and enforcement of the Tax and all other actions on behalf of the political subdivisions of the TCD as authorized by the Local Tax Enabling Act, subject to the policies and procedures of the TCC. To give full force and effect to this Ordinance, the authority of the Tax Officer shall be interpreted in the broadest permissible sense for the benefit of the Tax Officer’s ability to perform its duties. Section 11. Effective Date. The provisions of this Ordinance shall become effective on January 1, 2012, and shall apply to earned income received or earned and net profits earned or made by a taxpayer during calendar year 2012 and each year thereafter without annual re-enactment unless the rate of tax is subsequently changed. Changes in the rate of tax shall become effective on the date specified in the ordinance imposing such change.

tion. Their concern was the appearance of the structures, but Solicitor David Backenstoe said if there is a health, safety issue, the engineer could do an inspection. On Tuesday, Malitsch reported back that there may be some concerns structurally, and that the buildings were checked 10 years ago. No further action was taken, for Township Manager Alice Rehrig said earlier that there is no specific code that addresses the appearance of a building. The old post office porch is in poor condition. Hills of Greenock Supervisor Brian Moser again brought to the board’s attention that there are crushed sidewalks at the Hills of Greenock development, apparently from trucks driving over them. “We approved this lousy place, and it’s our responsibility morally to see that the right things are done,” Moser said. He added that he could not believe the compaction of soil that was not done. Curbs and sidewalks were put in. “It’s a very unusual development,” chairman Darryl Snover said. “We’re still responsible for improvements, and we don’t know if any more homes will ever be built there.” The owners will be contacted to see if work was done or soil removed.
Planning Items The Northwoods major subdivision plan was given an extension until Dec. 30, 2011. As for the Gerald Pritchard land development, although an extension was requested to Feb. 28, 2012, the board said no activity has been seen, so the solicitor recommended a shorter time, and to give Pritchard a chance to explain what is planned. They approved an extension to August 14, 2011. Other Matters • A resolution was passed authorizing Snover to sign DUI grant documents for the police department. • Ms. Rehrig noted that a member of the Lehigh Township Planning Commission has not attended meetings. The board wants to determine if she will be active, and if not, then they will advertise for a replacement. The position has been entered in the township website. • Residents are reminded that they are not allowed to blow grass clippings on roadways when mowing. Ms. Rehrig also noted earlier that grass has not been cut where there are vacant homes. A township ordinance establishes these rates when weeds are not cut and the township has to do it: labor, $50 an hour; mower, $25 an hour; truck charge, $50 an hour; trailer service, $25 an hour, and an administration fee of $50 per occurrence.

Police Blotter Colonial Regional Arrest After Assault With Hatchet Lucas Takacs, 19, of 4167 Wilson Ave., Bethlehem, was arrested on numerous charges after Colonial Regional Police responded to a fight in the 200 block of Old Forge Drive in Bath on June 17. Takacs was wielding a hatchet, and both persons in the fight received injuries in that altercation, but none of the injuries were from use of the hatchet. Takacs was charged with terroristic threats, simple assault, harassment, disorderly conduct, and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was video arraigned in front of District Judge James Narlesky and committed to Northampton County Prison in lieu of $20,000 bail. The other person in the fight was not identified in the police report.
Truck Stolen From Bath Business
A burglary occurred between June 4 and 5, at which time the burglar or burglars entered through a side window and stole a 1994 Dodge pick-up truck owned by George J. Kratzer, Inc. at 267 Broad St., Bath. The green truck had a black ladder rack and white tool box/cabinet on the passenger side of the bed. The truck has not yet been recovered, Colonial Regional Police said on Monday. The burglar(s) left behind a shirt, which police described as “unique.” Anyone who can identify the shirt can remain anonymous, but is asked to call the detectives at Colonial Regional Police Department, 610-861-4820.
Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
A female requested police check the welfare of a male
in the Wawa parking lot on Easton-Nazareth Hwy. after she witnessed the male drive into the establishment on the wrong side of the roadway. She told police that he remained in his car while she was in the store. Returning to her car, she approached the male and asked if everything was alright and noticed that he had bloodshot eyes and responded to her question in a low voice. She then saw the male inhaling the contents of an industrial strength air duster can. Police identified the male as Kenneth Luckenbill, 26, of Front. St., Catasauqua. Police received permission to search his vehicle and recovered the air duster can and a small metal pipe. Luckenbill will be charged through Magistrate Joseph Barner’s office for illegal use of certain solvents and noxious substances, possession of drug paraphernalia and driving on divided highways.

Lehigh Twsp Vol. Fire Co. to Host blood brive The Lehigh Township Volunteer Fire Co. in Cherryville is hosting a blood drive from 5 to 10 p.m. on Monday, June 27 in conjunction with Miller-Keystone Blood Center. The Lehigh Twsp. Vol. Fire Co. and MKBC are hosting the blood drive to boost and maintain the community blood supply for the coming summer months, as the need for blood arises and the number of consistent blood donors shrinks. Every two seconds someone needs blood. In addition to the joy of being a lifesaver, anyone who gives at this drive or any other community blood drive this month has the opportunity to win a night at the ballpark and more — MKBC’s donor promotion prize pack includes 2 IronPigs baseball tickets, a $250 Visa gift card and a picnic basket of goodies. To make an appointment for donation or for more information, potential donors should call Chairperson Roger Spadt at (610)-554-1227. Donors should remember to bring a form of photo identification that includes their printed name, signature and photo to the drive. More information about blood donation is available at www.GiveaPint.org.
