Northampton Borough looking at Fire truck financing

By KERI LINDENMUTH After expressing concerns about purchasing a new ladder truck for the Northampton Borough Fire Department, Northampton Borough Council has engaged in discussions with the fire department to see whether a purchase is possible within the next few years.

In September, council tabled a decision to approve the purchase of a new Pierce aerial ladder truck for $1.4 million. The 15-year loan would cost the borough nearly $80,000 per year.

Councilmembers said other borough expenses took precedence, and they were worried about what they called a lack of reporting.

On Wednesday, Oct. 1, the borough’s fire committee met with Chief Keith Knoblach to

discuss finances.

“We walked away with a positive attitude and a can-do spirit,” said Councilwoman Judy Kutzler on Thursday, Oct. 3 during council’s workshop meeting.

Kutzler also apologized to Knoblach after reviewing the fire department’s annual report.

“They have a wonderful report,” she said.

She said the report indicates that nearby municipalities “will be there for us during this downtime” without a ladder truck.

If the fire truck is purchased now, the borough would not get it until 2021.

With no promises made to purchase a new ladder truck, council did promise to continue to look at financing.

In other news, a report on rental inspections was given

during the borough’s workshop meeting. In September, 159 inspections were conducted by zoning officer Keith Knoblach.

Eighty-four licenses were issued.

Knoblach said that a number of properties are in review status.

He indicated that most of the issues found are issues like missing fire detectors or missing C02 detectors.

“Some of the landlords just need to know what we are looking for,” Knoblach said, “[Then] they make updates to their other properties.”

Finally, Borough Manager LeRoy Brobst is working on scheduling a meeting with surrounding municipalities and FedEx representatives to discuss truck traffic concerns. Brobst said the meeting should be held sometime within the next month.

By KERI LINDENMUTH During the Bath Council meeting on Monday, Oct. 7, Mayor Fiorella Mirabito awarded her first-ever mayoral proclamation to Assistant Fire Chief Christopher Keenhold for his bravery and dedication during a Jan. 1 fire call in the borough.

“Finally I get to do a proclamation for someone special in our community,” she said.

During January’s fire in the 600 block of Main Street, two firefighters became trapped in the burning row home. Keenhold entered the building, located the firefighters, and brought them to

safety.

To honor Keenhold’s “selflessness and heroic efforts,” Mayor Mirabito named Jan. 1, 2020 Christopher Keenhold Day. Keenhold was previously recognized with the Spirit of Courage Award hosted by Lehigh Valley Health Network.

Mayor Mirabito praised all of the firefighters on Keenhold’s team.

“What these guys do on a daily basis,” she said, “I do not think I can do.”

Keenhold received a standing ovation by council and residents after receiving his award.

Looking by Back Ed Pany On the farm, 1930

A few weeks ago Bob Mentzell, a friend, former outstanding teacher at Northampton High School and current school member, forwarded this writer a series of photographs showing my father, Anthony Pany, working on the Smith Farm in East Allen Township during the Great Depression.

Anthony immigrated to the United States as a youth from Austria. His education in this new country was limited. In order to help his large family, he was hired as a farm hand on the Smith Farm.

The series of photographs depicts farm life in the ‘30s. Farm

life was quite different during that era. Agriculture lacked the modern equipment of today’s farms. Most daily chores were performed by manual labor. They still used horses to supplement their first tractor, a solid steel McCormack tractor on steel spiked wheels. There was no automatic Continued on page 6

Grow UR Biz

by CAROL RITTER

I got scammed

One of my favorite movies with two of my favorite actors is "Catch Me If You Can.” It recounted the exploits of teenage scammer, Frank Abagnale (played

by Leonardo DiCaprio) who, before being caught by an FBI agent (played by Tom Hanks), impersonated airline pilots, doctors and lawyers in the course of stealing sizable amounts of money.

After serving prison time, Abagnale was recruited to work for the FBI and subsequently enjoyed a successful career helping people and companies from falling victim to, well, con artists like Frank Abagnale. Abagnale states that we live in the "the golden age of scamming" and shares some common and surprising ways we get ourselves scammed.

Years ago, my mother-in-law got this exact call: “Do you have a grandson, Matt?" She said yes.

"We arrested your grandson. He got a DUI in San Francisco while driving, he didn’t want us to call his parents, he asked us to call you. If he doesn’t post bail in the next two hours, he’ll have to spend the weekend in jail. You can give us a credit card over the phone and you can post his bail on your credit card.” She was 90 years old and after calling the police she was so upset she would not believe me that it was a scam.

I called Matt and he was not only fine he was enjoying a vacation in wine country.

Then there are romance scams where a man will have 12 to 15 women they talk with daily, romancing them to get them to send money. Actually, Millennials get romance scammed more than seniors.

And then the credit card scam; it happened to me this week.

Someone charged $400 on my credit card for parking in New York City.

There are some very clear red flags that you are being scammed: • You are asked for money

shortly after contact.

• You are asked for your social security number or other personal information.

• They lie about whom they are.

For example, they will say they are with your bank or a well-known charity.

Then there was my mom’s friend who got a call from a man who told her she won a million dollars in a lottery and she had to send money to pay taxes up front.

She was sending around $400 a month to a foreign country.

Be careful, tell others if you suspect a scam, and learn as much as you can to prevent becoming the scammer’s next victim. **Frank Abagnale-source **Joe Farkas-source

Bath Borough awards Sanitation contract to Advanced Disposal

By KERI LINDENMUTH During their meeting on Monday, Oct. 7, Bath Borough Council awarded a three-year sanitation contract to Advanced Disposal. This contract comes after 13 years of services by J.P. Mascaro & Sons.

The borough received two bids for this new contract from Advanced Disposal and J.P. Mascaro. Both companies were to bid on three options: weekly trash pickup, weekly recycling pickup, and curbside leaf pickup twice per year; weekly trash pickup, biweekly recycling pickup, and leaf pickup twice per year; and weekly trash pickup with no recycling.

Advanced Disposal offered the lowest bid in all three scenarios, with a yearly bid of $270,624 for the first option.

Representatives from both companies were present at the meeting to state their case.

Sam Augustine, J.P. Mascaro’s director of sales, told the borough his company has provided consistent service to borough residents. As a local, private company, he promised continued customer satisfaction.

“We have worked hard to have your business,” he said.

Ron Carlson, from Advanced Disposal, also spoke. He acknowledged that while a merger between Advanced Disposal and Waste Management is possible, he said Waste Management would continue the borough’s contract “to the letter.” He said his team does their job to the “best of our ability.”

Resident Bobby Siegfried acknowledged that J.P. Mascaro’s customer service has been pleasant to work with and the company’s service has improved over the past several months.

However, he urged the borough to maintain recycling, no matter which provider they chose. He said the borough cannot continue to throw plastic and other recyclables into the trash.

It would be unsustainable for the community and the planet.

“There is no circumstance I can think of where we should not be doing recycling,” he said. “Unless we do not care about our kids.”

Council agreed, with four members voting for weekly recycling against three who voted for bi-weekly recycling.

However, council was ultimately required to go with the lower bid as long as it was in compliance. This meant awarding the bid to Advanced Disposal for a three-year contract with a total cost of $811,874.01.

In other news, council discussed plans to privatize some area roads which had never earned official public status.

Following a road inventory, council highlighted roads that did not meet special certifications. Some of these roads include borough alleyways and roads like Sleepy Hollow, McClure, Spring, and Birch, among others. Council is working on an ordinance that would make these roads the homeowners’ responsibility.

However, some residents expressed worries about such a change. Darren Heckman asked council where residents would go during snow emergencies. Many residents, he said, use the alleyways when a snow emergency is in place on state roads.

“If you take them off 248 and 987, where are they going to go?” he asked. There are an estimated 30 cars that use some of these streets to park, he added.

Other residents were worried about the borough “dropping support for infrastructure.”

Borough Manager Brad Flynn stressed that the borough would still maintain utilities and stormwater, just not paving or road maintenance.

Councilmembers said they understood residents’ concerns.

Some members stated they are not sure where they stand on the issue.

“I do not know what I am okay with,” said Councilman Frank Hesch. “And I am sure I am not the only one.”

Saginario agreed.

“Is it going to pass? I cannot guarantee that,” he said.

Oldest cemetery In Northampton County Celebrates 291st Anniversary

Submitted by PEGGY SPENGLER-MOSER Did you know that Craig’s Irish Settlement, dating to 1728, is celebrating its 291st anniversary this year? The resting place of these founders will be highlighted during fall tours Oct. 12 at Horner’s Cemetery, 4965 NorBath Blvd. (Route 329), East Allen Township. The tours start at 1 p.m.

Did you know the longest permanent settlement in the Lehigh Valley was here in Allen and East Allen townships, as well as the towns of Northampton, Bath and more?

Did you know Benjamin Franklin was a frequent visitor of our local tavern? The tavern was Hays Tavern, now Weaversville Inn. Did you know George Washington gave our General Robert Brown a tree sapling after the American Revolutionary War? The sapling grew and was called the Friendship Tree.

Did you know Theodore Roosevelt has a relative in Horner’s Cemetery? John Boyd, one of our Lehigh Valley’s founding fathers, started Teddy’s family tree.

Did you know Jane Horner was the first woman settler killed

by Native Americans? She lived in Allen Township and was buried in Horner’s Cemetery.

Did you know part of the Fort Ralston compound still stands

today to view? The fort was built

by James Ralston in East Allen Township.

Did you know Wilson’s Blockhouse was also built in the French and Indian War? Not only that — Hugh Wilson was also the founder of Northampton.

Did you know Arthur Lattimore founded the town of Bath?

He also owned the first business in Bath called Lattimore’s Tannery.

Did you know Horner’s Cemetery is the oldest cemetery in Northampton County? The cemetery dates back before 1744.

Did you know the small cemetery contains three generals, seven attorneys, four doctors, three ministers and at least 21 already documented veterans from four wars?

Did you know how far our visitors traveled to get a tour? Our longest-traveled visitor was from Australia. Some others came from Nebraska, Florida, New Jersey, Colorado and, this year, Georgia.

Did you know there are many more stories about our founders?

Do you want your children to learn more about our local history than what is taught in school?

If you can’t make it Oct. 12, then come out for tours from 9 to 11 a.m. Oct. 19 and 26. Private group and individual tours are also available by appointment into November.

For questions, contact Horner Cemetery Historical Society at 610-837-1757.

Gab over by Pete The Fence G. Ossip I've been watching the baseball playoffs and so far there have been some really good pitching duals. As I write this, the Yankees have won their series, but the Braves and Cardinals and the LA Dodgers and Nationals have split their series. Astros lead Tampa 2 games to 1. . . Penn State and their spiffy throwback uniforms took care of Purdue in college football 35-7. The Eagles were all over those hapless N.Y. Jets on Sunday football. I do like that Carson Wentz. . . Here at Sacred Heart Sr Living by the creek I've settled down to a routine. I'm one of four at my dining table - Charlie Fry of East Allen Township who served 17 years in the Navy and is a member of Post 470, Bath. He has lived here 7 years and calls everyone by their first name; Dr. Russell Bleiler, a former Allentown dentist. He was a past master in his Masonic lodge.

He loves chocolate milk at all meals; Orlando Capellano, born in Naples, Italy, 95 years ago, he came to Ellis Island, N.Y. in 1929. He has a good appetite and carefully cuts up his food. We talk the Phillies and like everybody is saying, "Wait until next year!" For now I'm routing for the Braves as they play the Cards. . . Looking forward to the Lions pizza party visit. . . My sympathies to family of veteran educator, John Bensing. . . The weather outside is a lot cooler as fall has arrived, time to turn up the heat.

starter; a hand crank was used to start the tractor.

Corn was planted with a tworow horse drawn planter. The farm was in excess of 100-acres so days were long. The workday had no set hours; you worked until the fields were planted and harvested.

The farm raised corn, wheat, oats and alfalfa. The crops were needed to support the dairy herd and the excess was sold. Prices were very low during the ‘30s.

All cows were milked manually and the milk was hauled to the Northampton Sanitary Dairy.

Corn was husked by hand so the harvest, on occasion, continued until the first snowfall.

Hay was not baled but loaded on wagons with trusty pitchforks. The farm had a model T truck and automobile.

During the summer, wood

was sawed and split for the long winters. They did not have chainsaws. The home was a solid stone structure; there was no central heating system. The kitchen stove was the main source of heat. Water would freeze in the upstairs bedroom; on those cold winter nights, heavy blankets and feather ticks kept you warm.

My father rarely left the farm.

The radio, checkers and cards were the main source of entertainment. My father recalled hearing Orson Welles’ “The War of the Worlds” radio show, which was so realistic it frightened many listeners. Welles directed the Mercury Theatre radio dramatizations.

After years on the farm, Anthony would be employed by the Universal Atlas Cement Company and work there for 35 years.

He always reflected on his days on the farm even when he was employed at the Atlas, he remained loyal to William Smith and continued to help him on the farm.

Make your Plan for Fire Prevention Week www.firepreventionweek.org Fire Prevention Week began Monday and this year’s theme is “Not Every Hero Wears a Cape.

Plan and Practice Your Escape.”

The goal is to recognize those who motivate their households to develop and practice a home fire escape plan and to encourage others to do the same to help save more lives.

With today’s homes being filled with synthetic materials that burn hotter and faster, resi-

dents may have as little as two minutes to safely escape a burning structure.

A home escape plan includes working smoke alarms on every level of the home, in every bedroom and near all sleeping areas.

It also includes two ways out of Continued on page 8

The annual family-friendly event was held at a new location this year in order to hold more vehicles than previous years. Also new this year was the Princess Pavilion, for attendees looking for something a little less rugged and a little more whimsical.

Those in attendance could enter for a chance to win a new bicycle, courtesy of Curt’s Cyclery in Nazareth.

Children had the opportunity to explore over 40 different vehicles and meet the heroes who drive and operate them on a daily

basis. Touch a Truck brings the entire community together and provides fun for the entire family. See you next year.

Potential budget cuts Raise concern in Nazareth

by DAWN DUDECK TUNNEY At the Nazareth Borough Council meeting Monday night, concerns were expressed by the NEDC- Nazareth Economic Development Committee- that the group's funding may be cut. This would lead to the possible elimination of the Downtown Manager's position next year, changing it to Farmers' Market Manager, which is seasonal as opposed to year-round.

Lori Bernardo, President of the NEDC, spoke on behalf of the organization and explained the effects the cut would have, not only on the economic growth of the town, but also the community as a whole.

Liz Wyant is the current Downtown Manager and Bernardo attributes much of the Farmers' Market's success to Wyant. The seasonal market draws a substantial amount of people to the area and promotes local businesses.

Mayor Lance E. Colondo recognized the accomplishments of Wyant and said they were "getting a bargain" for all she does. Mayor Colondo voiced his concern of losing Wyant as the Farmers’ Market Manager if the Downtown Manager position were to be eliminated.

Council President Daniel R. Chiavaroli confirmed there was talk concerning the NEDC's funding, but at this time it was only a topic for discussion at the Oct. 23 annual budget meeting and that no decisions had been made.

Councilwoman Jessica Teel Sadler said budget cuts are a normal part of the yearly meeting and Council looks at every expenditure the same way and no one group is specifically targeted.

The NEDC's mission is to promote business growth in the Borough with the interest being the betterment of the community. Their focus will be uniting all of the town's various committees, The Main Street 4-Point Approach, to achieve financial prosperity for the downtown area. The program provides framework for community-driven, comprehensive revitalization and bases its plan for success on the four principles of economic vitality, design promotion and organization.

In addition, Bernardo pointed out there would be no one to manage the Facade Grant Program, a potential drawback if the Downtown Manager's position is terminated. In the last four years, over $200,000 worth of improvements have been supported by the Facade grants.

The NEDC plans to address council further at the next workshop meeting which takes place the Thursday before Monday's council meeting.

In other news, a bronze plaque honoring those who served in the Vietnam War will be adorning the outside of Council Chambers. A dedication ceremony and ribbon

cutting is to take place following the Memorial Day parade. Three Nazareth citizens lost their lives in the war.

Mayor Lance E. Colondo recognized the accomplishments of two Nazareth natives, Sage Karam and Joe Kovacs Jr. Karam, a 2014 graduate of Nazareth High School, won his latest IndyCar race recently. Kovacs, a former Nazareth resident, won the Olympic Silver Medal in the 2019 IAAF Shot Put World Championship in Qatar.

200th farm Preserved in Northampton County submitted by

BECKY BARTLETT Northampton County Executive Lamont McClure and the Northampton County Farmland Preservation Board and staff hosted a celebration of the 200th farm to be preserved in Northampton County on Wednesday, Oct. 9 at 1 p.m. at the Moore Township Farm Property/Schiavone Park, 797 Bushkill Drive, Bath, Pa. With the addition of this farm, Northampton County will have preserved 16,690.69 acres. Agriculture is Pennsylvania’s numberone industry and Pennsylvania leads the nation with the most preserved farmland. Farmland Preservation allows production agriculture to remain a viable industry in the state.

“As we recognize what we have achieved, we must be ever mindful of where we still need to go,” says Lamont McClure, “We must be aware that we all need to do our part to ensure that agriculture, not only here in Northampton County continues, but ensure that generations to come understand the importance it plays in our daily lives and our future.”

The Roman Road

The Roman Road shows the way to eternal life! These Scriptures from the book of Romans in the Bible are powerful truths that if sincerely believed and fully acted upon will guide us to the only way to heaven. The first one reveals our standing with God. Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” That’s a stubborn fact with which we cannot argue! Our sin separates us from a holy God in this life and in the life to come.

Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Good news! God loved us enough to provide His own Son, Jesus, as an atoning sacrifice to save us from sin’s devastating penalty.

Romans 6:23a “For the wages of sin is death…” That’s eternal death-separation from God forever! Thankfully, there is an alternative!

Romans 6:23b “…but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Think of it! Jesus took our death penalty so we could have God’s gift of eternal life! Here’s how to receive it: Romans 10:9 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”

Romans 10:13 “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” That includes you! You can be saved right now by accepting Jesus into your heart as your risen Savior while calling on Him in prayer. Do it now! Let us know that you have done this. Then serve Him: Romans 12:1-2 “…present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” --Written by the late Pastor Daniel E. Lundmark

Our Best Friends Have Hairy Legs!

How to protect small Dogs from birds of prey Wikihow.com Birds of prey, like eagles, hawks, falcons, and owls, have keen eyesight and can strike their prey swiftly. They tend to hunt rodents and small birds, but very small dogs can sometimes be at risk as well.

If your dog is particularly small, you should exercise caution whenever it’s outside.

Take measures to ensure your yard is as safe as it can be for your dog. Make smart choices when you’re outside together.

And know what to do if your dog ever faces a bird of prey.

Method one of three: Making your yard safer 1. Cover outdoor dog pens

or play areas. Build a roof over any areas of your yard where you let your dog play or rest during the day. This will keep birds from being able to see and dive for your dog from above. If you let your dog roam the entire yard, purchase a pet playpen to confine it to one area, and then cover it.

• If you can’t or don’t want to build a permanent structure, purchase an open-sided tent and put it up over the playpen.

2. Prune tree branches to eliminate perches. Identify areas of your yard where your dog spends time off the leash (playpen, right outside the door, etc.). Prune back branches on any trees near

these areas. This will reduce the number of possible places for birds of prey to perch.

3. Remove bird feeders from your property. Bird feeders attract mice and small birds, which are prey for larger birds.

If you see that your neighbors have bird feeders, discuss the threat that birds of prey pose to your dog. Ask if they’ll bring the feeders inside, at least while birds are nesting.

4. Set up a scarecrow or fake owl to deter birds of prey. Hawks and owls will be less likely to linger if they think there is a person or another bird of prey hanging out nearby. Make a scarecrow or purchase a realistic owl statue.

Move it around every few days so that the birds don’t figure out the trick.

Method two of three: Practicing safe habits 1. Supervise your dog

whenever it’s outside. Even if you have a covered play area in your yard, never leave your small dog alone outside. Your dog may find a way out of its enclosure and wander out into full view of a bird of prey.

2. Keep your dog on a nonretractable leash during walks.

Retractable leashes allow your dog to get too far away from you. Purchase a standard leash that is no more than 6 feet (1.8 m) long. And never let your dog off the leash while outside of your yard, even if you’ve never seen predators near your home.

3. Keep your dog away from any trees with nests. Be on the lookout for trees, both near your home and along your walk route, where birds of prey have nested. These nests may be up in the branches or inside tree cavities. Don’t allow your dog off its leash, even in your yard, if a bird of prey has nested nearby.[7] Wait until the eggs have hatched and the birds have left the nest before you let your dog off the leash outside.

In the U.S., birds of prey are federally protected, so do not attempt to disturb or remove an active nest.

4. Purchase a Raptor Shield for your dog to wear outside. A Raptor Shield is like a dog coat that you sling over your dog’s back and clip under its stomach.

The canvas material makes it impossible for a bird’s talons to latch onto your dog’s skin and carry it away. Put this on your dog whenever it’s outside, particularly if it will be off leash.

to send it flying away.

3. Make big arm gestures and loud noises to scare off hawks.

Since hawks are federally protected, do not attempt to throw anything at one to scare it away.

Instead, once your dog is safe, raise your arms over your head and wave them around. Yell and make loud noises to try to intimidate the bird to fly away.

4. Call your veterinarian if

a bird makes contact with your dog. Actual bird attacks on dogs are rare, but if a bird does attempt to pick up your dog, check your pet carefully for injuries.

Their talons can puncture skin, or it may drop your dog and injure one or more of its legs. If you see anything questionable in your dog’s behavior after an interaction with a bird of prey, immediately call your vet.

Early detection saves lives 40+ Get a mammogram!

Method three of three: Handling bird interactions 1. Pick up your dog as

soon as you see a bird of prey.

If you happen to see a predator while you’re outside, immediately pick up your dog and hold it close to your body. Take it inside, and do not let it back out until you have scared the bird away.

2. Shine a flashlight at owls to scare them away.

If you’ve spotted an owl in your yard at night, find a flashlight with a strong beam and aim it at the owl’s eyes.

This should scare it enough
