P u b l i c Wo r k s STREET SWEEPING Begining Monday, April 4th, sweeping will take place the day AFTER your regular scheduled trash collection on the 2nd and 4th weeks of the month. Please avoid placing grass clippings, tree limbs or any other debris in the street. This causes damage to the sweeper and down-time for the operator resulting in an inability to maintain the schedule. Property owners are required to keep trees along the curb-line trimmed to a minimum of 12 feet above the street so that the sweeper can work close to the curb without damage to the machine. If branches fronting your property do not meet the above requirement the street will not be swept and you will be cited under property maintenance code.

COMPOST FACILITY 422 S. 24th St. Hours of Operation: Beginning January 4th (for leaf & woody waste drop off and mulch service) Daily - 6:00 am to 7:00 pm • The Borough may close the facility at any time due to lack of operational space or material processing.

• The Public Works Department is closed for most major holidays.

• Service is available ONLY to Borough property owners and residents.

• Cards are $20 for residents and $1,200 for approved Camp Hill Borough contractors. Access cards are valid on a calendar year basis. Replacement cards are $5.

Mulch: Starting April 4 Spring Mulch loading service will be available on Monday & Friday ONLY, from 7:30 am to 8:30 am.

To Purchase a Compost Permit please go to our website to find the form or you can stop by our office to fill one out. Please remember to keep your card at the end of the season, it can be reactivated when your application and payment are processed the following year. If misplaced there is a $5 fee for new card.

WINTER MAINTENANCE The following guidelines can make the operator’s job safer and more efficient: • If possible remove vehicles from streets

prior to a winter event.

• Remove basketball hoops from the borough right-of-way.

•K eep a safe operating distance from maintenance vehicles.

• I f you have a mailbox along the roadway, the post and mailbox must be sturdy enough to withstand snow coming off the plow blade.

•N ever push, blow or shovel snow into a cleared roadway.

•N ever attempt to stop a plow driver while salting or plowing.

•C learing a space along the curb or edge of road before your driveway will reduce the amount of the snow placed in your driveway.

•W ait until the street is cleared before shoveling driveways and sidewalks. Plow operators may make multiple passes on the same street.

•T rees limbs should maintain a minimum height of 12 feet above the street surface.

SANITARY SEWER Do not flush swiffers, cloth or paper rags, baby wipes, baby cloths, dental floss or other similar materials into the sewer system. These items cause clogs, damage sewage pumps and increase maintenance costs.

Property owners (private) are responsible for the lateral and building sewer. The lateral extends from the sewer main in the street to the Right-of-Way (typically behind the curb or sidewalk). The building sewer extends from the Right-of-Way to the home. The Borough (public) is responsible for the sewer main in the street. Customers are reminded to keep traps in homes/businesses filled with water.

This will reduce sewer odors from entering the living and working spaces.

For sewer emergencies during normal working hours (8 am to 4:30 pm) call 717737-3456 and provide your name, address and telephone number. After hours, call the police department at 717-737-1570, they will reach out to On-Call personnel. The sewer main will be checked by Public Works Staff and flushed if necessary. If the sewer main is open and free flowing, staff will contact you and recommend you call a plumber.

POLICE DEPARTMENT DONNA HOPE RETIRES We are experiencing some significant The borough doesn’t promote, endorse or recommend any contractor or business advertised in the newsletter or in general practice.

changes this year as we say goodbye to a longtime department member and welcome her replacement.

After almost 26 yrs. of continuous employment with the CHPD, Office Manager Donna Hope is retiring effective March 11th. Additionally, she has been the department Accreditation Manager since 2007.

The department has successfully been re-accredited five times during that period, owing to Donna’s organizational and record keeping efforts. Donna’s contribution to the operations of the CHPD have been immeasurable! Not only has she been the glue that keeps our officers and operations moving forward, she has been a great friend and co-worker to every member of the department. It’s difficult to say goodbye to such a valuable and loved member of our department, but we wish Donna and her husband Mike the best in a much deserved retirement!

As we say goodbye to Donna, we welcome her successor, Michelle Stevens. Michelle joins the CHPD after serving with another Cumberland County Police Department, and before that for several years in the private sector. Fortunately Michelle will have had three mos. at CHPD training under Donna’s supervision before Donna walks out the door. Michelle has been an excellent student, absorbing all the knowledge and experience. Although Donna set the bar at a high level for her successor, we are confident that Michelle will meet that standard and be a valuable asset to the CHPD, and by the extension to the Camp Hill community. Welcome aboard Michelle!

Clubs and Events HISTORICAL SOCIETY

A CENTURY OF SNOW In the early 1900’s, snow did not deter the Mechanicsburg area farmer from his weekly Wednesday herding of cows to the butcher shops between Mechanicsburg and Marysville! This photo was taken from the south side, across from 2156 Market Street. One cow would soon be dropped off at Traub’s Market near North 21st Street.

Camp Hill photographer, Sam Kuhnert, captured “The Terrific Snow Storm” of Sunday, March 6, 1932. This is the view along Market Street from a point west of 23rd Street,

toward 21st Street. There’s a trolley back there at 21st Street, that was stuck there for a while! No snowplows!

Drivers put chains on their tires and just d r o v e through it all! This photo, and many others from Sam Kuhnert’s collection, can be found in the wonderful archives of the Pennsylvania State Museum in Harrisburg, just west of the Capitol off 3rd Street.

Your imagination can whirl while gazing upon Camp Hill’s Cemetery following a good snowfall! This photo is from 2010, taken from the porch

of 134 North 23rd Street. Soon thereafter, parents were playing with small children and sleds in the area that is the scene of our Memorial Day ceremonies.

SPOTTED LANTERNFLIES IN THE WINTER Spotted lanternfly lay their eggs in the fall and start hatching in May, therefore the best time to find and destroy viable egg masses is winter through early spring.

Spotted lanternfly will lay their eggs on almost any nearby flat surface, so be sure to check tree trunks and branches, rocks and equipment stored outdoors.

TO DESTROY THE EGG MASSES: Apply a lot of pressure (you'll want to hear them pop) .

Scrape the eggs and to kill the viable egg masses.

Scrape into a bag filled with hand sanitizer or alcohol in order to kill the eggs. Once done, place in a second bag and discard in the trash.

Parade of Lights for Toys for Tots Thank You’s In December, Camp Hill Borough and Centric Bank joined forces to host the Parade of Lights for Toys for Tots. This was our second year for this event in place of our traditional Toys for Tots Parade.

We had displays throughout the park and nearly 1,400 cars drove through the park during the event. Best of all, we filled 4 ABF Freight cubes with toys for local families in need. We had support from many businesses, clubs and students in the community. Families enjoyed driving through the park and seeing all the lights and Santa.

This event could not have been a success without the continued support of donations from various businesses and organizations especially Centric Bank. We would like to thank the Camp Hill Woman’s Club and Brenner Family as well for their contribution.

There were a number of in kind donations, that don’t’ go unnoticed.

Thank you to ABF U-Pack Moving, HRG, Camp Hill Woman’s Club, Camp Hill Lion’s Club, Camp Hill Fire Company, Camp Hill Fire Police, Cornerstone Coffee House and the Sutliff Family.

A special thank you to the group of people who worked very hard to help make all this happen: Mayor Mark Simpson, Patty Gilroy, Jon Arosell, Jeff Capp and Gary & Bridget Rini. Also to Borough Council, the Recreation Commission and many other community members who volunteered as well. A total community effort!

BOROUGH-WIDE CCTV INSPECTION: The Stormwater Authority has received bids and is in the process of awarding a contract to complete remote video inspection of all storm sewer pipes within the Borough.

This work will be taking place throughout the 2022 calendar year.

In 2023, the Authority will formulate the next 5-year Stormwater Management Plan, based upon the results of this inspection work and the next round of MS4 permit requirements.

Stay tuned as we work to submit permit applications for a combined stream restoration & trail improvements project in Siebert Park.

Winter Celebration on Hold for Another Year

New Pantry Partnership For many years, the Earl Besch Fund at The Lion Foundation has helped support nancially insecure students in our schools. Donations to this fund have underwritten not just the annual operation of the Earl Besch Food Pantry, but also new coats, shoes, and fees for school-related expenses such as eld trips.

Thanks to a new, transformative partnership between The Lion Foundation, New Hope Ministries, the Camp Hill United Methodist Church, and the Camp Hill school district, New Hope Ministries will now be running the operations of the pantry. The goal of the new partnership is to provide not only nutritious food, but also

comprehensive support to help families get back on their feet. The pantry will still operate twice a month and provide additional case management, housing, basic needs, stability, and employment services for eligible families in need.

Your donations to the Earl Besch Fund will support both the pantry and Principal’s Discretionary funds for student needs at each school

As much as we want to celebrate in person with all our friends and supporters, we’ve made the tough decision to forgo our annual Winter Celebration. Though we will miss seeing you, our rst priority is doing our part to keep everyone safe and healthy!

But just because we can’t gather indoors at the Radisson this year doesn’t mean we can’t have some virtual fun. Watch your inboxes and follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for details soon on one of the Winter Celebration’s most popular features: the Silent Auction! We can’t wait to bring back all your favorite experiences.
