Bath Council discusses fire Department siren, welcomes new Public works employee, and approves Improvements to Penn Street By KERI LINDENMUTH During the Borough of Bath Council meeting on Monday, May 3, Councilwoman Carol Bear-Heckman brought to council’s attention some complaints residents have made concerning the fire department’s siren, which sounds during fire events and some trainings. She said residents had asked whether the siren is still necessary in the age of mobile phones. Mayor Fiorella Mirabito echoed Bear-Heckman’s sentiments, adding that residents have come to her with similar concerns. The main concern is the volume of the siren in the middle of the night. However, Councilman Anthony Kovaloksky, who served
on the volunteer fire department, said the siren is necessary. Sometimes, he said, volunteer firefighters may not be near their phones but can hear the alarm. This siren, added Councilman Mark Saginario, a former firefighter, prompts an “instinct” in volunteers to jump into action. “[An alarm that lasts] two minutes, three minutes, five minutes...it could mean a life [is saved],” continued Kovalovsky. In other news, Steve Kovalchuk joined the borough’s public works department as public works leader. He has over 35 years of public works experience. Borough manager Brad Flynn said the borough is already seeing the impact of Kovalchuk’s experi-

ence. In one instance, Kovalchuk saved the borough over $43,000 by performing patch work on the roofs of the public works garage and borough building. Several other new public works employees will be joining Kovalchuk over the coming weeks, to help aid in what Flynn calls the “renaissance” of the department. “[Kovalchuk] saved us $43,000 out of the gate...that is a huge savings to the borough already,” he said. Kovalchuk joins the public works team just in time, with several large projects around the corner. During the meeting, council approved base repair and

sentative Gary Day. Representative Day came to commend the youth members for their efforts on a community service project. The 4-H Club hand crafted bluebird houses last month in preparation for this service project. The Farm to Table Club researched the importance of bluebirds to agriculture, as well as the annual maintenance necessary for a successful bluebird trail. On Sunday, the youth members each installed a new bluebird house to replace the existing damaged ones. After installation, the children trimmed the brush surrounding each post. Next time you visit the Laury’s Station Park, take a walk on the newly refurbished bluebird trail. The 4-H Farm to Table Club welcomes all youth ages 5-18.

Gab Over by Pete The Fence G. Ossip
Been feelin’ a lot like summer lately, that’s for sure. Time to break out the air conditioners unless you’re one of the lucky ones with central air. Central air is just a different kinda cool, don’t you think? I’ve been hearing there’s gonna be a chlorine shortage this summer, I’d say go out and snag some before it’s gone but it already seems like the shelves are empty...The Nazareth Farmers’ Market had their opening weekend this past Saturday, what a perfect day for it. Bath’s market will be opening next Friday with a ribbon cutting... There was a big arrest made in Northampton last week. Almost $1 million in drugs was found and several guns including ghost guns in the Northampton Borough. They served a search warrant to the Eighth Street apart-
ment and they found over 21 pounds of methamphetamine, among other things. Holy moly... If you drive through Cherryville at all you’ve probably seen the Smokey the Bear outside of the Lehigh Township Fire Company. Well, it was recently stolen. It was stolen from the side that faces south...I’m noticing lots of credit card frauds and stolen identities in the police blotter this week, seems like a lot more than usual....There was an awful fire in Moore Township on Eckerts Lane last Friday, it was real

windy that day. The homeowner lost everything. If you’d like to donate there’s a GoFundMe page set up for him...Earlier this week it was International Firefighters Day. If you see or know a firefighter, be sure to thank ‘em, they work really hard to keep their communities safe...Lastly, this Sunday is Mother’s Day. Be sure to tell mom how much you appreciate her if you’re lucky enough to do so!...Anywho, that’s all for this week, cya next time.

improvements to Penn Street, Easter Terrace, and Independence Avenue. The borough has teamed up with the public works crew in Upper Nazareth to help keep costs down on the construction. Total construction will cost $362,500. The borough expects work to be completed by the end of the summer or early fall. Another upcoming project will be the installation of an electronic sign outside the municipal building, in the southwest corner of the parking lot. The sign will be installed by KC Sign & Awnings. The 4ft by 8ft video board will show messages, news, and other alerts, which can be generated by municipal staff from their computers or phones. The sign will also feature the borough’s tagline: Bath, History Nestled with Friendship. The total cost of the sign will be $45,390. However, it is be-
ing paid for by American Rescue Plan funding, which was awarded to local municipalities during the COVID-19 pandemic. KC Signs predicts a four to six-week turnaround.

Data on gift Card payments
Submitted by STEVE GARDNER Is it a scam if someone directs you to pay a debt or other obligation with a gift card? The answer is yes – in 100 percent of cases. But alarmingly, 1 in 4 people surveyed by AARP got this question wrong – at a time when we’re seeing an increase in the use of “payment by gift card” as a scam tactic. Since 2018, gift cards have been one of the most popular forms of payment requested by criminals according to the Federal Trade Commission. Gift cards are easy to access, virtually untraceable and less likely to raise red flags.

Bath Allen Youth Club Local 4-H Lending a hand Continued from page 2 el9@verizon.net. Check out 4-H With season Farm to Table Club on Instagram @lv_farmtotable. Opener To find your local 4-H proBy CATHERINE STROH The Bath Allen Youth Club will hold its season opening day on Saturday, May 8, commencing the club’s second spring season. The club grew from 35 children in the first season to 98 children participating this spring. A total of six baseball games will be played throughout the day, with the first game of the day beginning at 10 a.m., and the last game of the day will begin at 3 p.m. The newly renovated and remodeled snack stand will be open, featuring Papa Sarge’s Homemade Pierogies. All are welcome to attend the opening day festivities and enjoy a family-friendly day filled with baseball, basket raffles, 50/50 drawings and more, and all for a good cause. Bath Allen Youth Club will be donating 100 percent of its profits from opening day to a team member’s family. “At Bath Allen we care about the families and our community and this year we decided to donate 100 percent of our opening day proceeds from the baskets and 50/50 drawing to the family of one of our players whose father was diagnosed with kidney cancer. We felt this is the least that we can do to support the community who has helped us grow tremendously over these last couple of years!” said Bath Allen Youth Club President Eric Miller. Sully Klingman’s father has recently been diagnosed with kidney cancer. Sully is on the youth club’s “Biddy B” team. Sully’s family is making their best effort to stay positive during this difficult time and are doing all they can to lift Sully’s spirits. The Bath Allen Youth Club is proud to be involved in this effort. The Klingman family has expressed their gratitude for the outpour of community support: “Thank you to all who have provided kind words and well wishes to us during this time. Your ongoing support and compassion have restored our faith in human beings.” If you’d like to know more or would like to donate, a GoFundMe page has been established for Peter Klingman, and can be found by visiting gofundme.com and searching “Help Peter in his fight to beat Kidney Cancer.” A goal of $20,000 has been set and at time of print, almost $13,000 has been raised. Bath Allen Youth Club President Eric Miller expressed his gratitude to the community as well: “I would like to thank the entire board of Bath Allen, all our families, volunteers, and sponsors of the club.

Make It Magical
By FRANKLY FERGUSON May is a month filled with a few little big holidays that are sure to add excitement to your life. These holidays help us to show appreciation to the moms we love, how grateful we are to our American heroes, and to share in the joy of our Mexican Americans in celebrating Cinco de Mayo for their defeat against the French Empire. Celebrate them all, celebrate them with love, and let's make life a little more magical through these little big holidays. Cinco de Mayo is up first. Celebrated on the fifth of May, this holiday is now observed more in America than in Mexico and dates back to 1863 when it was first observed in California. It gained national popularity in the 1980s and is celebrated by many throughout our country. Through reenactments, military parades, and ceremonial commemorations, this holiday is vibrant, bright, fun, and filled with Mexican culture. Tacos, Mexican street corn, tequila, margaritas, Mexican beers, and lots of traditional Mexican music; that's what this holiday is all about. Make it magical in your home by educating your family about the battle that took place, through offering traditional Mexican foods, drinks, and music, and by decorating with vibrant colors. Red, blue, green, pink, yellow, use tissue paper flowers, garland, pinatas, sombreros, mini instruments, and celebrate the rich Mexican-American culture we have all come to love and enjoy. Next up is a true little big holiday that we should honor proudly, Mother's Day. Although we should celebrate the incredible, superhero moms out there every day, this day was set aside to make sure we let mom know just how appreciated she is. It is a day to reflect on all the things our moms do for us through wearing more hats than most, ones that often go unrecognized until you are older in life. It's our day to say, "Hey, MOM, you ROCK,” so let's scream it loud and clear because mommas, we love and appreciate you. Mother's Day is typically filled with flowers, homemade cards,

elbow macaroni necklaces, jewelry from dad...from the kids... spa days, good meals, and lots of grateful hugs, but let's make it a little more magical this year by throwing a tea party. Decorate your table with flowers, gold chargers, champagne glasses, add butterflies, candles, pictures of you and mom, or framed drawings to mom. At each place setting, add pearl necklaces, teacups, biscotti, hats for the gents, and create a magical tea party for mom. You can serve biscuits, mini sandwiches, scones, fruit salad, shrimp cocktail, danishes, and crumb cakes. Offer different kinds of teas and have fun with it. No matter what, it's mom's day, so make sure you set it up, clean it up too, then send her off for a relaxing day at the spa. Remembering those who died in active military service to protect our American freedoms is something we should all take a moment to observe. Men and women selflessly gave their lives for us so we can continue to live as freely and amazingly as we do, so let's make sure we honor them by celebrating Memorial Day on May 31. More than a BBQ with friends and family, this day should hold a special meaning to all Americans where we make sure to incorporate the importance of its observation. You can do so by visiting a memorial park or a veterans cemetery where you can place flags or flowers at the gravesites of our fallen heroes. You can also do so by flying the American flag at half staff until noon or by joining a moment of national silence at 3 p.m. for our heroes. Donations are an excellent way to commemorate Memorial Day as well. Lastly, make it a day you observe in your home by sharing the history and importance of our American military. Of course, you will then celebrate with a BBQ of some sort, we all do because it's the
American way, but make sure you first recognize the reason for the celebration, our heroes. Decorate with our beautiful American flag, print out the stories of a few fallen heroes and share them with your family, honor a family member who served, make it magical by showing gratitude to the men and women who served in our military and gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. Celebrate with loved ones by honoring our freedoms and our ability to do so because of them. Fly the flag proudly and salute to America, the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. Life is all about making moments magical and May is a month filled with little big holidays to celebrate. Honor, gratitude, appreciation, May is a month that encompasses it all. Enjoy! https://franklyferguson.com/ Instagram: happyholidaysbyfranklyferguson Facebook: Happy Holidays by Frankly Ferguson

Sgt. John A. Harmon
Sgt. John A. Harmon, 55, of Bushkill Twp., passed away peacefully in the comfort of his home, surrounded by his loving family on Thursday, April 22, 2021 after a courageous battle with cancer. He was the wonderful husband of Sandra (Szekely) Harmon for 21 years. John was born on Feb. 24, 1966 in Rota, Spain to the late Delmar E. Harmon, Sr. and Patricia A. (Ziegler) Harmon. He proudly served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1984 to 1990. John continued his love for serving his country by becoming Sergeant for Colonial Regional Police Department and Sheriff for Northampton County Sheriff's Dept. He was a member of the Fraternal Order of Police. He was also a member of Holy Family Catholic Church of Nazareth. John was a diehard Pittsburgh Steelers fan and proud season ticket holder of the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. He loved rocking out to 70's and 80's music. He and his family enjoyed taking their annual vacations to Rhode Island. John was a hardworking good man, who always made sure he provided for his family.

Carl Leonard Millard Jr.
Carl Leonard Millard Jr., 79, of Bath (Moore Township) died on April 29, 2021, at St. Luke's Hospital Anderson Campus in Easton after many years of declining health. He was born on Feb. 25, 1942, in Bloomsburg, Pa. the son of the late Carl L Millard Sr. and Mary (Gosciminski) Millard. Carl, known as Junior by his family and boyhood friends, was a 1960 graduate of Bloomsburg High School. He later graduated in 1964 with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Education from Bloomsburg State College, now known as Bloomsburg University, and added a Masters Degree in Business Education from Bloomsburg State in 1968. After college graduation, he embarked on a 40-year high school education career, teaching at Delaware Valley High School in Frenchtown, NJ for one year and at Pen Argyl High School in Pen Argyl for 39 years, primarily instructing business education, consumer economics, accounting, and typing until he retired in 2004. In 2006, the Pen Argyl Education Association presented him with the Pennsylvania State Teachers Association (PSEA) Friend of Education Award. During his teaching career, Carl was well-liked by many of his students and fellow teachers at Pen Argyl, who appreciated his outgoing, sociable nature. In addition to his teaching career, before his retirement, Carl worked for the United Parcel Service and as an auditor for Moore Township, Northampton County. Carl's favorite hobby was coin collecting. He served as the president of the Lehigh Valley Coin Club and was a member of the Bethlehem, Allentown, and Phillipsburg (NJ) coin clubs. His passion for coin collecting was recognized by his peers, who named him the Lehigh Valley Numismatist of the Year in 1985. Carl was also a member of various, other social clubs in the Slate Belt and Lehigh Valley; he was a 4th degree Knight with the Knights of Columbus Father DiNisco Council 3862 in Bangor, a past president of the Pen Argyl Exchange Club, and a member of the Northampton Exchange Club. He was a long-time member of Sacred Heart Church in Bath and a former member of St. Roch's Church in West Bangor. Carl avidly followed baseball and was a lifelong fan of the New York Yankees. He also regularly attended Lehigh Valley IronPigs games during their first 10 seasons of existence. Junior was a shareholder in the Bloomsburg Fair, one of his greatest lifelong passions. He attended the fair every year it was held from 1942 to 2018, and never missed an opportunity to sample the fair's

food offerings and spend time with his friends in "the Railroad Street gang" when visiting the fair. Finally, Junior enjoyed deer hunting with his friends and brother Joe, though his real passions during those outings involved socializing and eating Tastykakes rather than finding deer. Surviving family members include his wife of 55 years Carole (DeFrancisco), and sons Carl III "Chip" of Silver Spring, MD, Christopher of Bath, and Craig of Starkville, MS. Other survivors include his sisters Jean (Mike) Kosh of Redwood City, CA and Patty Shutt of Las Vegas, NV, brothers Joe (Mary) Millard of Sunset Beach, NC and David (Rita) Millard of Berwick, brothers-in-law Sam DeFrancisco of Bakersfield, CA and Tom (Eileen) DeFrancisco of Middletown, sister-in-law Kathy (Scott) Rex of Berwick, and various nieces and nephews.

NORTHAMPTON AREA
Lack of sewer agreement continues to cause headaches for Allen Township developers, residents By KERI LINDENMUTH During the Allen Township Board of Supervisors meeting on Tuesday, April 27, resident John Klink described the scene around his Eisenhower Drive home: roads with only base paving, storm drains with weeds growing out of the top, a street light pole with no light. He added that vacant lots in the North Hills development are not maintained and that some areas have become dumping rounds for garbage. He told supervisors this has been the experience of both him and his wife, Alice, for three years. “I feel like this development will never be done in our lifetime,” added Alice Klink. “You know what’s across the street from me? A dump.” Construction in the North Hills development, owned by Tepes Construction, has been at a standstill since 2019 following the expiration in 2016 of a sewer
agreement between Northampton Borough and Allen Township, leaving the developers with no sewer EDUs. Without them, new homes cannot be built. “I would love to be building homes,” said Tim Tepes, who took over construction from his ailing father, Lou Tepes, Jr. “My hands are tied until we get the sewer permits...my lots are worthless….we can’t sell anything.” This caused what Supervisor Dale Hassler called a “catch-22” during the meeting: supervisors would like Tepes to pave Eisenhower Drive and West 32nd Street, finishing construction of the roads. However, they know that these new roads will likely be destroyed once construction picks back up due to truck traffic and utilities, meaning Tepes would have to pave the development’s roads twice. While Tepes said he is all for
making improvements, he wants to improve something he knows he can sell. “I want this project over with,”
he told supervisors and residents. “My dad has 1.8 million dollars in that ground sitting there.” He said the stress of this situ-
ation is a leading cause of his father’s failing health. Continued on page 11

Linda Stubits, Nazareth School Board president, was present at the meeting to maintain collaboration with borough council. School board meetings are held on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month; the school board’s budget and taxes will be discussed at their next meeting. A borough resident also brought up concerns about parking on Seip Avenue, Kohl Street, and W. Locker Street. Some paContinued on page 11

“[This has] killed my father already,” he said. Tepes said he only has enough EDUs left for two buildings to be constructed. He purchased these EDUs before the agreement with Northampton expired. “If we had sewer permits, we’d still be building,” he added. “That street would probably be done already.” It was a sentiment that supervisors agreed with; however, they also said they understood the residents’ frustrations. “I don’t think it is fair to the people who are paying taxes to this township to not have a finished road in front of their house,” said Hassler. “I understand Mr. Tepes’s concerns, but I have concerns for the residents also.” Supervisors asked Tepes if he could give them a timeline of construction. They also asked whether he could meet with the code enforcement officer and township engineer at the site to go over the improvements and what can be done to help both him and the residents living in his development, something Tepes agreed to. Solicitor Lincoln Treadwell told residents in attendance that the code enforcement officer is aware of the problems like garbage and weeds and is “working on it.” As far as when sewer permits can be granted, construction can pick back up, and certificates of occupancy can be granted, Treadwell said he could not say. The township and Northampton borough remain locked in litigation.

From May 1 to May 31, the Greater Bath Area Chamber of Commerce (GBACC), a proud partner of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, will host two fundraising initiatives to benefit their scholarship fund. Each year, the GBACC awards at least one student from the Northampton Area School District with one scholarship. With their biggest fundraiser of the year, Spuds and Suds, being cancelled, the GBACC has pivoted to host their first-ever Slice for the Scholarship and Quotes for the Scholarship Fundraisers. Not only will both initiatives benefit students of the Northampton Area School District, but they will also encourage the community to support our local businesses. The first initiative, Slice for the Scholarship, includes partnerships with several local restaurants. Each participant will feature a promotion and the indicated percentage of proceeds will be donated to the scholarship fund. Participants include: • My Place Pizza Restaurant – 10 percent of all proceeds (Tuesdays from 5 to 9 p.m.); • PizzaVille Italian Eatery –15 percent of all proceeds (all day Wednesdays); • Stefano’s Italian Grille – $1 from each pizza pie when flyer is turned in at time of pick-up or purchase (daily, all day);

Jessica O’Donnell, EVP of Affiliated Chambers for the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, commented, “The Greater Bath Area Chamber has always been committed to supporting our future business and community leaders. In a year that has turned everyone’s lives upside now, we know that students have missed out on a multitude of opportunities and 'rites of passage.' Therefore, we felt it was more important than ever for us to continue this tradition. With our biggest fundraiser of the year being cancelled, our board quickly began brainstorming other potential fundraising opportunities. We are thrilled to say that, through the power of partnerships, we will be hosting two scholarship fundraiser this year with multiple local businesses. We encourage community members to participate as they will not only be supporting students of the Northampton Area School District, but also our local establishments.” Pietro Russo, owner of Stefano’s Sicilian Grille, said, “With everything that has happened this past year, I’ve continually revisited a quote that my late mother always use to say, ‘When everything seems to be going wrong, always remember there is worse in life.’ We are both excited and honored to be a part of this initia-
tive as it will allow us to support a cause that will positively impact students of the Northampton Area School District.” Tony Tibaldi, owner of the State Farm Insurance Bath office, commented, “The Tony Tibaldi State Farm Agency is thrilled to help The Greater Bath Area Chamber of Commerce with this initiative. Investment in the youth of our community through education is paramount for the success of the community. With the rising costs of education expenses, we know that every little bit helps these students while they are moving on to the next chapter in their lives. We are excited about the opportunity to quote new customers through the initiative; so we can help them manage the risks of everyday life, recover from the unexpected, and realize their dreams. It’s why I became a State Farm Agent. Helping people is in our blood!”
