Allen Township supervisors Unhappy with Radar Drive work By KERI LINDENMUTH Allen Township supervisors on Tuesday, September 14, voiced displeasure with road work performed on Radar Drive. As a result, they refused to release the full security amount to Rockefeller Lehigh Valley, developers of the warehouse complex along Radar Drive and Willowbrook Road. Township engineer Stan Wojciechowski said he has concerns with the striping on Willowbrook Road, an infiltration basin on the property, and, primarily, paving performed on Radar Drive. He said the wearing course has not been properly bound to the road’s binder course, leading to cracks on the
800-foot section of road. This is an issue the township has alerted the developer to several times. Although Rockefeller has asked Radar Drive to remain a private road, it connects to a public township road. “We as a township would want that up to par,” said Supervisor Gary Behler. The township is withholding security of $1.1 million, which Wojciechowski said is “more than enough” to fix Radar Drive should the property owner continue to refuse to. Roughly $91,200 was released to Rockefeller. In other news, supervisors passed a resolution that would allow the township to apply for the Lehigh/Northampton County
LSA grant. If funds are awarded, they would go toward sanitary sewer cleaning and televising equipment. Supervisors also approved the township’s participation in the Northampton County Community Development Block Grant Program. This funding would be used for ADA needs. “We should take every [grant] opportunity we can,” said Supervisor Dale Hassler. Finally, supervisors approved trick-or-treat for Sunday, October 31 from 6 to 8 p.m. The rain date will be on November 1. The next Board of Supervisors meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 28 at 7 p.m. at the Allen Township Fire Company.

Residents ask Northampton Council To explore new trail access By KERI LINDENMUTH Several residents of the borough’s Third Ward approached Northampton Borough Council during their meeting on Thursday, September 16 to ask council to explore the possibility of a new access point to the Nor-Bath Trail. Residents of McKeever Lane had previously used a neighboring property to access the trail, with that property owner’s permission. The access, they said, was safer and easier to get to than the next closest access point, and allowed walkers to safely cross the railroad tracks. However, a new owner has moved into the home and placed “No Trespassing” signs on the property. Caesar Artos, the new property owner, said he moved into the home with his wife and chil-

dren 11 months ago. Shortly after moving in, he noticed trash and pet waste on his property from people using it to access the trail. His grass was damaged and he also said there were evenings when he noticed people crossing through his property well after midnight. He chose to survey his land and install the signs for the “safety of his family.” Council understood Artos’s concerns and want to respect his wishes. Councilman Ronald Glassic and Trevor Stone, who both represent the Third Ward, will work with property owners and Mayor Thomas Reenock to see whether they can provide a solution. In other news, the borough met with representatives of Allen Township to discuss an Act 537 plan. Borough Manager LeRoy Brobst said the discussion was “encouraging.” The borough is currently in litigation with the township regarding their sewer agreement. Brobst told council they may want to consider forming a sewer authority between the two municipalities.
“We are heading in the right direction,” he said. The borough will also be talking to solicitors regarding their contract with their current waste hauler, Republic Services. The haulers “have seriously dropped the ball as of late,” said Brobst. “They have really disappointed everyone.” Brobst said there have been 546 misses in only one month. Solicitors will look at imposing punishments on the contractor moving forward. Finally, junior council member Ryleigh Tillotson gave her first report since taking her position earlier in the month. She has been talking to high school guidance counselors about getting volunteers together for a digital borough newsletter. She is also exploring ways to update the borough website to make it more navigable. Finally, she mentioned that the biology club may be interested in assisting Jerry Mraz and his monarch project at Canal Park. The next council meeting will be held on Thursday, October 7 at 7:30 p.m.

When we look back into our history, we often don’t realize that many of our local boroughs and small towns are dotted with small barns and stables. They are present because earlier there were not many automobiles, and the peo-
ple relied on horses and wagons or buggies as their major means of transportation. Being smaller than the rural barns used for agriculture, they provided muchContinued on page 2 Our Services include: • Air duct & Furnace cleaning • Dryer vent cleaning • UVC central air purifiers • Chimney sweeps

meeting, which was open to the general public, the board had gathered to discuss the budget for the upcoming year. Chairman Cindy Miller informed those gathered that such discussions “will be continued until we finalize the budget.” Following the revisitation of ongoing business, the board heard a presentation on behalf of Edward Lorah, owner of Lorah’s Pig Roasters and Farm Market. The farm, located on South Cypress Drive in Walnutport, hosts several events annually that are open to the public, including tractor pulls, junk car races, and demolition derbies. Mr. Lorah’s farm has been the subject of recent complaints from residents in the surrounding community who felt that noise and traffic generated by events held on the property were disruptive. Following some discussion regarding the farm’s zoning district and what activities would qualify as appropriate uses of the property, the board advised that Mr. Lorah consider presenting his case formally, either in front of the Board of Supervisors or the Township Zoning Board. Mr. Lorah made no comment on which course of action he intends to take at this time. The next Board of Supervisors meeting will be held September 28 at 7 p.m. in the Township Municipal Building.

What possibly could this week’s article title mean? Perhaps I have revealed to you the age at which I plan on retiring. It isn’t. Actually the age I have chosen, Lord willing, is 71. Maybe I am going to talk about my rusted out 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 that I hope to one day restore. Isn’t that either. The title 70 could be many things but for the purpose of our natural perspective, 70 is the target goal for our vitamin D level. Of course, I will always add the caveat of “talk with your physician” as one size doesn’t fit all. That said, I have truly never come across any of my patients that were made worse by a higher vitamin D level. The range given by blood labs is anywhere from 30ng/ml-100ng/ml. Many, if not most, fall short of the thirty. I bet many reading this article as we speak are probably far below 30ng/ml, perhaps in the 20s or so. Not good. So what should we do about it and why are higher levels important? Vitamin D is extremely beneficial in that it promotes calcium absorption in the gut. That alone
www.HomeNewsPA.com
is significant and I could end the article here and now on this fact alone. For those that are continually mega-dosing calcium and still have little to no results, the problem may be your low vitamin D levels, so please consider that. Vitamin D also assists with normal phosphate concentrations, which frankly doesn’t excite anyone, yet it is important. In addition, thousands of genes are affected by whether or not vitamin D is available. Imagine low levels of D “turning on” genes that lead to illness, yet conversely appro-

priate levels of D “turning off” genes that cause cancer and other disease. Now this is just a small sample of why D is so important, but let’s move on. We have an understanding that in this Covid era you may want to consider higher vitamin D levels. I have heard 55ng/ml as a target in this regard. So a minimum can be set at 55 ng/ml, yet I still consider 70 ng/ml as the target. Some are worried about toxicity, but you do not need to be. Toxicity is perhaps at a level of 125ng/ ml-150ng/ml and I have never seen that in almost 25 years. Not once. I would say that having initial blood work to see where you are at is important. If I was a betting man, I would wager that anybody who isn’t supplementing is nowhere near 70. That said, the basic 400IU or 800IU supplement just will not get the job done. No, far from it. When I am run down, I take 25,000 IU per day for at least three days. As a maintenance dose, I take minimum 4,000iu/day, usually more. Going into fall/winter I don’t hesitate with upwards of 10,000 per day. I feel the need to share that some time ago I read that normal ranges of vitamin D could be associated with less falls as we age. Maybe that’s not a direct correlation, yet what if it is just a little? Does that interest you at all? Is it worth getting your vitamin D levels up to 70 then? I think it’s cheap insurance for a lot, including disease and chronic conditions. Now there is much talk about making sure your vitamin D also has vitamin K2 in it. I didn’t really pay much attention to that until the last couple of years. I do feel K2 has much benefit as well. We can touch on that in future articles. Last but not least, is the little known fact that low magnesium levels could affect vitamin D levels. I quickly covered much here this week so let’s summarize: Get blood level vitamin D checked as soon as possible, consider vitamin D at about 4,000-5,000 IU per day, maybe more, take with K2 at about 100-200mcg, and add magnesium at around 600800 mg per day. Is this exact? Of course not, unless I have seen you in my office, how could I really know? However, these three are pretty important actionable items for you to consider. My best to you. “Natural Perspectives” is a health commentary only and does not claim to diagnose and/ or make treatment recommendations. Always seek the advice of your health care professional.

BATH FARMERS’ MARKET Every Friday 3 to 6 p.m. Keystone Park
and W. Northampton Street, included live music from several area bands, as well as food and drinks provided by local vendors. Attendees could register for an event passport, which entitled holders to free beverages, food, and discounts at the participating businesses. Carol Bear-Heckman, who owns and operates Antiques & Artisans along with husband Darrin, explained that the idea for Blues and Brews came about after the Borough of Bath cancelled planning for the town’s annual Spuds and Suds event due to COVID concerns. “The merchants on the streets got together and said, ‘well maybe we could do a festival,’” she said. Eleven local merchants participated in the planning for Blues and Brews, and the event gained support from the surrounding community, with local business sponsors stepping in to cover the costs of advertising for the festival and of booking the bands. Leading up to the event, Red Wolf Bar and Grille hosted a kickoff party in August. The festival itself ran from 1 to 6 p.m., with an afterparty held at Blend, a local event space. As for the future of Blues and Brews, it is yet to be determined whether the festival may become a local tradition. When asked about plans for Blues and Brews to be held annually, Bear-Heckman said that future plans were still uncertain. She said that although the Greater Bath Area Chamber of Commerce was very supportive of the inaugural event, Spuds and Suds is scheduled to go on next year so it is unknown what will happen with Bath Blues and Brews moving forward.

shown to and approved by the vendor. The Department of Corrections will require a list of the employees who have been exempted from vaccination by the vendor and the reason. It is up to the vendor to keep track of and maintain such information of its employees and approve only legally legitimate exemptions. “The current outbreak is a result of people being unvaccinated,” says Lamont McClure. “We need to do everything we can to keep the people who work and live at NCP as safe as possible and, right now, our best chance of doing that is to increase the vaccination rate.” NCP Corrections Officers and
other staff are strongly encouraged to get a COVID-19 vaccination. If they do so they are eligible to receive a one-time $500 bonus. As of September 14, 80 of the 211 Corrections Officers have applied to the Human Resources department with proof of their vaccination status.

NAZARETH AREA
Nazareth School Board Conducts business While residents voice Concerns By JOE KORBA The September 14 Nazareth School Board meeting was held virtually with no in-person option after an announcement via social media a day earlier from Superintendent Dr. Dennis Riker. The announcement said that the virtual meeting would allow a “face-covering neutral” environment considering a recent order by the PA Department of Health requiring face coverings in school
buildings. The meeting opened with a roll call and the pledge before moving on to public comment that was supposed to be confined to comments on board resolutions only. Immediately upon opening comment some members of the public began questioning the board’s decision to not allow inperson attendance. After a few minutes of questions about the decision, the board muted the

mic so they could continue with general business. They let the virtual attendees know there would be more time to comment during the community corner portion of the agenda. Two members of student government addressed the board next. A School Liaison, Sena Gulen, told the board about welcoming back students at staff. She said that part of student government’s mission is to make new students feel at home. McKenzie Harris, Student Government President, filled the board in on homecoming arrangements. She said they voted on the court and that the homecoming game would be on October 8 with the dance to follow on October 10 from 6:30 until 9:30 p.m. at the school. A representative from the Food Service Committee updated the board on how they are handling procuring food for the district. At the beginning of the year, they found out that they could no longer participate in the food co-op they have been using in previous years, but they managed to secure an agreement with Tri-State coop, an organization that mostly serves Philadelphia-area districts. Despite supply chain difficulties, they have been able to keep the schools stocked and the cafeterias running. They are required to participate with the co-ops to be in compliance to receive federal funding. The school district policy #802, with regards to school organiza-

tion, was voted on and approved unanimously by the board. The policy assigns which grades attend which school, and continues their current plan originally adopted on January 26 of this year. Next on the agenda was the community corner, which allows public comment on non-agenda items. A resident of Upper Nazareth named James Cunningham opened by requesting that “community corner” be renamed “we the people” to better reflect the importance of the agenda item. He then demanded that the “100 people” outside of the building be let into the meeting. When Cunningham was informed that the meeting room couldn’t hold that many people he revised his estimation of the crowd to “50 people.” After he was rebuffed by the board, he asked to know the names of the people who made the decision to make the meeting online only and said that he wanted to “make a motion” that would force the school attorney to attend meetings in person. Shortly after the community corner started it was abruptly cut short for an executive session. The board eventually returned, made an announcement of a special meeting, and then motioned to adjourn. The special meeting of the Nazareth School Board was scheduled for Thursday, September 16 at 7 p.m. in the high school auditorium. There was a virtual option for attendance as well. The board noted that all members of the public would be able to be heard at that meeting.
