WHAT’S GAGA?

Late this spring the Public Works staff installed a Gaga Pit in Siebert Park across from the tennis courts. This octagon pit is used for a high energy game like dodgeball. The more players the better! This game is played with a soft ball like you would find in the center isle of the freezer section of the grocery store. It combines the skills of dodging, throwing, running, and jumping, while trying to hit opponents with a ball below the knees. Players need to keep moving to avoid getting hit by the ball. Fun and easy! The official rules are posted on the side of the Gaga Pit and are available online at gagaballpits.com.

ACTIONS OF COUNCIL

APRIL – JUNE

• Voted on DCNR and DCED grant applications for Schaeffer • Voted to create a Human Rights Commission • Voted to pay Farhat Construction for Storm Water rehabilitation project.

MAYOR/ FIRE CHIEF

I hope that everyone is having a terrific summer! Before long our streets and sidewalks will be bustling with students walking and biking to school. Motorists please slow down, obey the speed limits, and completely stop at all stop signs. It’s that time of year again for the Camp Hill Fire Department to sell tickets for the annual chicken BBQ. Ticket sales will begin on Monday August 14th. Ticket costs are $8 for adults and $6 for children. The BBQ will be held on Saturday September 16th from 11am to 7pm. We greatly appreciate the support that we receive from the community and we look forward to seeing everyone at the BBQ. Firefighting requires a lot of specialized equipment which is very expensive. One such piece of equipment is the self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) which provides a firefighter with breathing air when inside a hazardous environment such as a house fire. SCBA has a 15-year lifespan and must be replaced at the end of the lifespan. The Camp Hill Fire Department applied for a FEMA grant to replace the SCBA. I am very pleased to announce that we have been awarded the grant in the amount of $146,000.00 to replace our SCBA! The annual Camp Hill Fire Department Open House will be held on Saturday October 21st from 11am to 2pm. Please plan to stop by and visit!

POLICE DEPARTMENT NIGHT OUT

We would like to thank all of our sponsors, businesses and citizens who came out and helped us celebrate National Night Out!! Our annual event continues to grow each year and we could not do it without our wonderful businesses who donate their

products and our citizens who support and attend our event each year. We would also like to remind residents about the Camp Hill Borough Police Department Facebook page. We try to keep residents up to date on what is happening in the Police Department and any informational news items we feel the public should be alerted to. We would like to ask that if you have any questions or an emergency please do not post questions or comments on the Facebook page, as time may pass before someone looks at the page. If you have questions, concerns or need immediate help please call either 911 or our office phone (717) 737-1570. Also please be aware of school starting later this month. We urge citizens to watch for bicycles and children in school zones and to please be considerate of the crossing guards. They have a very important job to keep our children safe!!

PUBLIC WORKS

STREET SWEEPING

Street sweeping will continue through the fall. The last week of street sweeping will be the week of October 23rd. Sweeping will take place the day AFTER your regular scheduled trash collection on the second and fourth weeks of the month. Please avoid placing any debris in the street. This can cause damage to the sweeper and down-time for the operator resulting in an inability to maintain the sweeping schedule. Property owners are also asked to keep trees at the curb-line trimmed to a minimum of 12 feet above the street so that the sweeper can work close to the curb without damaging the machine. Please make every effort to move parked cars, trailers and basketball hoops from the roadway/street Right-of-Way so the operator cannot effectively clean the street.

Public Works/Codes es and plants may be dropped at the facility. Items that are not accepted include grass, topsoil, sod, tree stumps, bamboo or any form of dimensioned lumber. Leaves maybe left in brown compost bags only-NO PLASTIC BAGS! Staff will load your truck or trailer on Mondays and Fridays from 7:30 am to 8:30 pm. The borough may close the facility at any time to process/haul material. It is a citable offense to drop materials at the facility when it is closed.

WINTER MAINTENANCE Plowing borough streets after a snow event is a time consuming process. Following a few simple guidelines can make the operator’s job safer and more efficient: • Pay attention to local forecasts as winter weather and road conditions can change very quickly. If it is necessary for you to drive, please do so responsibly. • Minimize driving as much as possible during and immediately after a snow event. The fewer the vehicles on the roadway allows the roadway to be cleared more quickly and efficiently. • Remove vehicles and trailers from the street prior to a winter event. This will allow the operator to clear the street from edge-to-edge. • Remove basketball hoops from the borough right-of-way. • Please keep a safe operating distance from all vehicles providing winter maintenance. • If you have a mailbox along the roadway, periodically check to ensure that the post and mailbox are in good condition. The post and mailbox must be sturdy enough to withstand snow coming off the plow blade. • Never push, blow or shovel snow into a cleared roadway. • Never attempt to stop or flag down a truck driver while plowing. • Clearing a space along the curb or edge of road before your driveway will reduce the amount of the snow placed in your driveway. • Wait until the street is completely cleared before shoveling the end of your driveway. • Operator’s will often make multiple passes on the same street. • Plow drivers cannot direct snow as it comes off of a plow. Plow blades are fixed to dump snow to the right.

POWER OUTAGE SAFETY

To insure your safety and well-being, these are important tips for during a power outage.

DURING A POWER OUTAGE Only use flashlights for emergency lighting, candles can cause fires. Keep refrigerator and freezer doors closed. Most food requiring refrigeration can be kept safely in a closed refrigerator for several hours. An unopened refrigerator will keep food cold for about 4 hours. A full freezer will keep the temperature for about 48 hours. Take steps to remain cool if it is hot outside. In intense heat when the power may be off for a long time, consider going to a movie theater, shopping mall or “cooling shelter” that may be open in your community. If you remain at home, move to the lowest level of your home, since cool air falls. Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing. Drink plenty of water, even if you do not feel thirsty. Put on layers of warm clothing if it is cold outside. Never burn charcoal for heating or cooking indoors. Never use your oven as a source of heat. If the power may be out for a prolonged period, plan to go to another location (the home of a relative or friend, or a public facility) that has heat to keep warm. Turn off or disconnect appliances and other equipment in case of a momentary power “surge” that can damage computers and other devices. Consider adding surge protectors. If you are considering purchasing a generator for your home, consult an electrician or engineer before purchasing and installing. Only use generators away from your home and NEVER run a generator inside a home or garage, or connect it to your home's electrical system. For further helpful information, go to Ready.gov

CODE ENFORCEMENT DEPARTMENT…

BUILDING PERMITS

Borough fees are due when applications are submitted to the Borough Office. Building permit plan reviews are conducted by a thirdparty inspection agency. The review period can be between 14 and 30 days; please plan accordingly. When a permit is approved and ready for pick-up, the applicant will be noti-

100348-_Layout 1 7/14/17 10:05 AM Page 7

WILLOW PARK IMPROVEMENT fied. Third-party fees are separate from the Borough’s and are due when you pick up your permit. Working without a permit is a citable offense and strictly enforced.

INSTANT TICKET PROGRAM The instant ticket program is intended for violators of the property maintenance code as well as other Code violations. The program is designed to combat violations such as high grass and weeds, garbage/rubbish as well as other property maintenance issues. Similar to a traffic violation, a ticket is issued immediately to a violator and/or property owner which must be paid at the Borough Office within fifteen (15) days. Failure to pay the ticket and remedy the violation will result in a non-traffic citation being filed at District Court. The instant ticket program as well as other enforcement methods of the Code Enforcement Department are in place to maintain and promote a safe and healthy environment for everyone living in Camp Hill. As always, the Code Enforcement Department thanks all residents and property owners who do their part to keep Camp Hill a wholesome community.

ANIMALS § 71-11 DISTURBANCE OF THE PEACE Any animal or bird in the custody of a borough resident which makes any noise continuously and/or incessantly for a period of ten (10) minutes or makes noise intermittently for ½ hour or more is considered a nuisance.

ANIMALS § 71-12 NUISANCES When not confined to the owner’s premises, all animals must be under physical control of their owner or custodian and constrained at all times. Any animal waste deposited on the ground other than the animal owner’s own private property must be removed immediately and disposed of properly.

WEEDS AND GRASS § 302-4 International Property Maintenance Code adapted by Borough Council and enforced by the Codes Officer under Section 302-4, requires that all premises and exterior properties shall be maintained free from weeds and/or grass growth in excess of 6” in height. All noxious weeds shall be prohibited. Please help keep Camp Hill a safe and sanitary community.

GRASS CLIPPINGS AND GREEN WASTE Blowing grass clipping and green waste is prohibited. This is a violation of both Borough Code and EPA MS4 Permitting. Please refrain from this practice.

CLEAN, SAFE AND SANITARY CONDITIONS § 302-1

Section 302-1 of the International Property Maintenance Code states that each property shall be maintained in a clean, safe and sanitary condition. Also, pools, spas, hot tubs, fish ponds and ornamental water devices shall be kept in a clean and properly treated condition at all times as required in Section 303-1 of the IPMC. Please help us keep Camp Hill a safe and beautiful Community.

SWIMMING POOLS, SPAS, HOT TUBS AND STANDING WATER Help us fight West Nile. Please help the Code Enforcement Division to fight the threat of West Nile. Please do not allow garbage can lids, old tires or any vessel to harbor standing water as this becomes a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

OUTDOOR BURNING § 66-7 EXCEPTION TO RESTRICTIONS ON BURNING Patio and yard wood-burning units used as chimneas, patio warmers and other portable woodburning devices used for recreational purposes, provided the following shall apply: (1) only clean wood may be used and burned, (2) patio and yard wood-burning units must be located at least 50 feet from the nearest structure which is not on the same property as the patio wood-burning unit and (3) use of patio and yard wood-burning units shall not cause a nuisance to neighbors.

IPMC § 304.3 PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION Help us fight West Nile. Please help the Code Enforcement Division to fight the threat of West Nile. Please do not allow garbage can lids, old tires or any vessel to harbor standing water as this becomes a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

Park (by the pool and cabin), Fiala Field, the end of South 30th Street and behind the Borough Building are for Borough Department use only. Dumping in, or in the vicinity of, the dumpsters by private individuals/households is a citable offense and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent provided by law.

If you would like to take advantage of this please provide your email address when submitting your payment for your 3rd qtr. bill. As always if you have any questions, please feel free to call!

WILLOW PARK STREAM IMPROVEMENT PROJECT

A concept plan for the stream restoration project was discussed with Borough staff and revisions are being incorporated currently. The design plans are in progress with stream details being modified to accommodate requests from the Borough staff as well as some of the unique site conditions. The design engineers conducted a “geomorphic assessment” of the stream. This will provide valuable information needed to classify and properly design the stream channel. The next stages of the process include drafting a new channel alignment and cross section that will reduce erosion, move the channel away from steep slopes, improve the flow through the park, and create instream habitat. A native planting plan is being worked on that will provide for a woody riparian habitat that can withstand periods of drought, inundation, and brief periods of elevated levels of salinity. This will likely be the subject of additional discussions with Council and Borough Staff on creating a flow bypass from Walnut Street, along North 25th Street and eliminating two

SCHAEFFER PARK UPDATE

Girl Scout Community 157 Girl Scouts in the Heart of Pennsylvania (GSHPA) is delivering free, innovative STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education for girls through their brand-new STEM Mobile. The vehicle is outfitted with cutting-edge technology from robotics to virtual reality and offers four exciting, hands-on curricula which includes topics like coding and mechanical engineering. The mobile laboratory launched in June 2017 and is now hitting the road and driving girls’ interest up in the STEM fields. Local volunteers are already taking advantage of the STEM Mobile and encouraging Girl Scouts and non-Girl Scouts to connect and learn more about STEM. Girl Scout Service Unit 157 (Camp Hill Scouts) will be hosting a Pool Party for all current, future and potential Girl Scouts and their families on Thursday, August 17. As an extra bonus, we are excited to host the STEM Mobile at this event! Please join us at Seibert Park: the STEM Mobile will be available from 7:00-9:00 pm and at the pool party will be held 8:00-10:00 pm. Donations excepted. Staff will be on hand to register girls for the 20172018 year.

In April of 2017, Camp Hill Borough Council took action to approve two grant resolutions signifying their intent to have staff draft and submit grant applications for the development of a park at the old Schaeffer School property. Borough staff submitted the grant applications in late April and has been meeting with DCNR and DCED to discuss the grant proposals and the concept plan that was submitted. The goal of Borough Council and staff will be to secure multiple sources of grant proceeds in order to help cover the overall cost of the Schaeffer Park project. The new park will include a walking path that will the local area surrounding the park as well as a multi-purpose field, a new decorative foundation feature located in the middle of the park and new bathroom facilities. The project will also rehabilitate the current softball field that is at the present location. The hope is the Borough will hear back about the grants the latter portion of 2017 and plan on construction in 2018.

Cumberland blvd. Task ForCe The Cumberland Blvd. Task Force (CBITF) is a group of Camp Hill Borough Residents committed to improving children’s safety on the heavily travelled Cumberland Blvd./32nd Street (Camp Hill ByPass). By implementing Traffic Calming elements to reduce speed, we hope to create safer mobility for children, as well as all residents in Camp Hill Borough. The CBITF has been busy since January meeting with concerned residents, local officials and school board members to discuss ways in which we can work together to preserve Camp Hill Borough and its unique walking school district as a safe, livable and walkable community.

8

We have narrowed and identified Four Main Safety Priorities, all of which are elements of Traffic Calming, as defined by the Institute of Transportation Engineers and the Federal Highway Administration: “Traffic calming is the combination of mainly physical measures that reduce the negative effects of motor vehicle use, alter driver behavior and improve conditions for nonmotorized street users. Traffic control devices, notably STOP signs and speed limit signs, are regulatory measures that require enforcement. By contrast, traffic calming measures are intended to be self-enforcing.” All are welcome to attend the next CBITF meeting on Wednesday August 16, 2017 at 7:00pm at Borough Hall. If you have any questions, please contact us at: cbitf.ch@gmail.com

ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB

CUMBERLAND COUNTY ELECTRONICS RECYCLING Cumberland County's new electronics recycling center located at 1001 Claremont Road in Carlisle is now open to the public. The County is primarily attempting to address the lack of television recycling opportunities Pennsylvania's electronics recycling law has created. Televisions are the most difficult and most expensive of the electronics to recycle. Please be aware that there is a fee charged for this service equal to fifty (50) cents per pound. The center will accept other electronics on its acceptable items list but they want the public to know that recycling outlets for the other electronics may exist at better rates. For more detailed information and hours of operation, please visit www.ccpa.net/3377/ Electronics-Recycling-Center---Accepting

GOOD BEER AND ALE!

Courtesy of the Historical Society of Camp Hill The first building in what became Camp Hill, was a log Tavern, the first Tavern in Cumberland County, established in 1737. This was not a “corner bar”. It was a place where travelers going west could rest after crossing the Susquehanna River. There were probably pens where the travelers’ livestock could be

contained for the night. Simple meals and drinks were available for purchase of course. The whiskey was distilled on site! Yes, Tobias Hendricks produced his own whiskey in what is now Willow Park! Through the years, the Oyster family built a Tavern farther west on Market Street where the Hershey Medical Center is currently located. Following the Civil War, but prior to Prohibition, there were perhaps two beer distributors in town -- one on South 15th Street, and one on the south side of Market, more or less across from N o r t h 23rd. There were two or three small restaurants that served beer by the drink. There wasn’t any “action” that could be called “night life”. Nevertheless, shortly after the turn of the twentieth century, Harrisburger, Silas Swallow came to town, built a fine house at 17th and Market Streets (where there is now a nursing home), purchased the Church at

21st and Market for his Methodist Church friends (now home to a Baptist congregation), and turned the WCTU ladies loose! [Women’s Christian Temperance Union] They didn’t have any effect upon Camp Hill’s little restaurant life, but the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution did! Following the 21st Amendment, there were stirrings of interest in bringing alcohol back into the Borough limits. The story is told that Al, who had a bar in Enola, decided to expand and open an establishment on the southeast corner of 22nd and Market, where the tasty breakfast and lunch Ouvo is located today. It’s not clear how long this lasted, but the clientele of Al’s Garden was unexpectedly rowdy. It didn’t take long for the Borough Council to pass an ordinance against all sales of alcohol within the Borough. Every so often the matter would be revived and placed on the ballot, but never passed. During our 2017 May Primary Election, the matter was again placed on the ballot. We voted to allow alcohol to be sold within our Borough for the first time in about eighty years! The Historical Society of Camp Hill invites you to visit one of our meetings – to share some Soup ‘n Sandwich, listen to a talk or observe a display about earlier days in Camp Hill. Chat with us at a display table during a community event. Join the HSCH!

All details and the application can be found at www.camphillborough.com and in the Camp Hill Borough Office.

Camp Hill Borough Resident Named as one of the Central Penn Business Journal’s Women of Influence

On June 26, 2017, Leigh Twiford was named as one of the CPBJ Women of Influence. She was recognized alongside 32 other women in Central Pennsylvania during a luncheon at the Hilton in Harrisburg. She was selected for her exceptional business endeavors and community involvement in Camp Hill Borough. As Leigh says, “I really like the energy that I feel when working with a team - either at work or on a council or as a board member. Harnessing that energy and using it to accomplish our goal is very rewarding.”

A Message From the Director... Dear Friends I hope everyone is having a great summer and has had a chance to catch one or more of the community events, programs or camps we offered this summer. It has been great seeing so many using the Gaga Pit that was added to Siebert Park this past spring. If you are asking what Gaga is, look for article in this newsletter about what it is and how to play. The turf and track are also being utilized a lot for some exercise and fun. If you still don’t have an access card, be sure to read the information in the Recreation Section about how to receive one. The response to the Box Lunch Review this summer has been wonderful. Thanks to Highmark, Mid Penn Bank, Service 1st Restoration, Papa Johns and Conte Wealth Advisors for their sponsorships to this program. I would also like to thank all the camp counselors, pool staff, snack shack staff and instructors for a great job this summer. The participants at all the camps and programs as well as everyone visiting the pool enjoyed themselves thanks to their hard work. There were hundreds of children who enjoyed Siebert Park Day Camp, Preschool Summer Adventures, Boys and Girls Basketball Camps, Soccer Camp, Theatre Camps, Field Hockey Camp, Lacrosse Camp, Track Camp, Science Camps, Football Camp, Tennis Lessons, Wrestling

Camp and Scuba Program. We have some great programs and events coming up this fall. Zumba, Acting Up, Art Classes and Dance are all back, so be sure to check out the dates and times if you are interested. Details about our special events including the Halloween Parade and Toys for Tots Parade, are in this newsletter. Please remember that Camp Hill Recreation programs require preregistration. All registrations must be completed online. If you need assistance please call the Recreation Office.

Making Things Happen… BANK VISIT As a follow-up to their trip to JA Biztown where 5th graders ran a simulated town, Mid Penn Bank invited Eisenhower Elementary School fifth graders to their new Camp Hill office on Market Street to witness a real bank in action. According to the fifth grade teachers, highlights included talking about counterfeit money, fanning (and smelling) a stack of new bills, and visiting the vault to see how it worked.

DISTRACTED DRIVER ASSEMBLY Jacy and Steve Good delivered a powerful message to Camp Hill High School students last spring about the impact of distracted driving. During the HangUpAndDrive assembly, funded by The Lion Foundation, they urged students and adults to turn off their phones, even placing them out of reach— in the glove box, the back seat or even in the trunk of the car—while driving. “I wanted to share with you that your HangUpAndDrive assembly really impacted my daughter. She was anxious to tell me about the program. I almost felt as I was there as she reiterated the conversation of the couple almost verbatim. She felt it was an incredible program and was very impacted by it. Great job!” – Camp Hill High School Parent Learn more about this program at HangUpAndDrive.com

The national competition showcased 96 small school teams, and 12 very small schools. “Thank you to The Lion Foundation for your generous support of the quiz bowl team’s trip to the National Championship in April. Your support made it possible for the team to travel to Chicago affordably and gain Camp Hill more success in the area of quiz bowl than we’ve ever had before.” –Andrew Gianelli, Quiz Bowl Team Coach
