21 MR. VOLDENBERG: THIRD ORDER.
22 3-A. CONTROLLER'S REPORT FOR THE
23 MONTH ENDING AUGUST 31, 2025.
24 MR. SMURL: Are there any comments
25 on any of the Third Order items? If not,
4
1 received and filed. Do any Council members
2 have any announcements at this time?
3 MR. SCHUSTER: Yes, I have one
4 announcement. I would like to thank the ARC of
5 Scranton. I received their thank you card. I
6 had the pleasure last week to tour the facility
7 and some of the programs over there and what
8 they offer to some clients and family in the
9 area.
10 I also got to go to a great event on
11 Sunday up at the Waldorf, their Family Fall
12 Festival where they fundraise for their
13 clients. It's something I've attended in the
14 past and it's for a good cause. So I would
15 just like to thank those members of the ARC.
16 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster.
17 Anyone else?
18 DR. ROTHCHILD: Yes, I have a few.
19 First, I just want to remind people that this
20 Saturday over at Nay Aug park they are having a
21 Jim Connors Day in honor of him with music
22 playing all day from 1 p.m., I think up until 6
23 p.m., along with some activities for children
24 and families.
25 And also happening this weekend is
5
1 going to be the West Scranton Fall Festival
2 that NeighborWorks has been doing every year.
3 And they split it up until two days today
4 they or two days this year. They used to do it
5 all in one day.
6 But Friday night over at Allen Park
7 from 6 to 9 they're going to be having live
8 music, fire pits, S'mores. And then on
9 Saturday at Clover Field, they'll have their
10 usual event there. That's from 12 to 4 and
11 just a ton of things for kids, activities,
12 bounce houses, just a lot that they do over
13 there in the field.
14 So if anyone is able to attend -- I
15 didn't look at the weather, but they do have a
16 rain date of September 27th in the event that
17 it's raining. And not sure if it was mentioned
18 yet here, but the Junior League of Scranton
19 does a Touch a Truck event each year. And
20 that's going to happen Saturday, September 27th
21 from 11 to 3 at Nay Aug. That's all. Thank
22 you.
23 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Dr.
24 Rothchild. Anyone else? If not Mr.
25 Voldenberg, Fourth Order.
6
1 MR. VOLDENBERG: FOURTH ORDER.
2 CITIZENS PARTICIPATION.
3 MR. SMURL: First, Joan Hodowanitz.
4 MS. HODOWANITZ: Joan Hodowanitz,
5 Scranton. Congratulations on the new
6 carpeting. I guess that explains why the
7 American flag is there instead of over there.
8 So when you Pledge of Allegiance you'll have to
9 turn that way.
10 One of the announcements I was
11 hoping you'd make but you didn't, so I will.
12 Friday, September 19th is the annual POW MIA
13 Recognition Day. It is a day in which we as a
14 nation recognize the 81,000 service members who
15 are still missing and have not returned home.
16 By the grace of God, we were able to
17 lay to rest Jerry Mullaney just over the week
18 after 81 years. So our Recognition Day will be
19 celebrated on Friday, September 19th at 4 p.m.
20 at the Scranton Veterans Memorial Park down by
21 the high school. I hope everybody who has the
22 free time will come down and participate. Any
23 applicants for Director of DPW?
24 MR. SMURL: I don't know of any.
25 MS. HODOWANITZ: Okey-dokey. And
7
1 are we still progressing on the Collective
2 Bargaining Agreement for DPW? It's been almost
3 ten months since their contract ran out.
4 MR. SMURL: Nothing yet.
5 MS. HODOWANITZ: Okay. I notice
6 that in the Controller's Report Mr. Ufberg got
7 another $40,500. He does these negotiations.
8 And two weeks from today is September 30th.
9 We're going to have the audit in hand for 2024,
10 right?
11 MR. SMURL: I certainly hope so.
12 MS. HODOWANITZ: Okay. From your
13 lips to God's ears, we'll be watching. And the
14 ordinance I believe it's 6-B, Reading by Title
15 the Civil Service Commission exemption for --
16 for the entry positions for the police.
17 I did check on the Civil Service
18 Commission and saw in their agenda for
19 September that it was on the agenda. So they
20 are aware of it. There were no minutes for
21 that meeting yet published. Do you know if
22 they saw any opinion or comments from the
23 police union?
24 MR. SMURL: That I don't know.
25 MS. HODOWANITZ: Okay. Well, I'll
8
1 check on that tomorrow because we have all the
2 pension boards tomorrow. I'm still, you know,
3 not clear on the concept of, you know, how the
4 Police Chief makes the final selection of all
5 of these applicants in a noncompetitive manner.
6 I understand that the Civil Service
7 Commission creates this alternate list. But
8 the final selection I think is done by the
9 Police Chief. While I have all the confidence
10 in the world of our current Police Chief, you
11 know that he might get run over by a fire truck
12 tonight.
13 And then we'll get somebody in there
14 and, you know, you never know how that guy's
15 going to work out. You know, we have a long
16 history of great mayors and then along came
17 Bill Courtright. So it's possible, you know,
18 that's why I keep, you know, mentioning, you
19 know, this thing will need some oversight while
20 we're doing this because we could lose track of
21 it and we don't want to see this devolve into a
22 good ol' boy network.
23 I know that we need qualified
24 people. I know that we don't want to deal with
25 staffing shortages. And, you know, that's the
9
1 way we should go. But still, because we're
2 taking exception to the way the Civil Service
3 Commission was designed to operate, I think
4 this is something that we should be keeping a
5 watchful eye on lest something go astray.
6 And we don't want that to happen
7 because our police department is really good
8 for whatever numbers we have. And I don't want
9 to see that be tainted with any kind of
10 questionable hiring practices. Thank you.
11 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Norma
12 Jeffries.
13 MS. JEFFRIES: Good evening,
14 Council, Norma Jeffries, Scranton resident.
15 And I wanted to start tonight in thanking Dr.
16 Rothchild for mentioning last week that the
17 planned food drive that we were going to have
18 at the park on the last Saturday weekend of
19 September and afterwards, the Touch a Truck is
20 going to have a food drive that day.
21 So there's a conflict. So I had to
22 postpone it and we'll have to come up with a
23 different date. And as soon as that date is
24 finalized, I will be announcing it again. But
25 I got several text messages about the food
10
1 drive, so I thought I'd mention it again to say
2 just hang onto those food items that you've
3 purchased.
4 And the second thing I wanted to
5 talk about was the visibility -- the high
6 visibility stop signs that they have, have been
7 installed in this city. And that was very
8 interesting to see that the city is moving
9 forward in trying to make our pedestrians and
10 our drivers more safe as we go through the
11 streets of Scranton.
12 So as I read the entire article that
13 was there, in the article the Mayor said that
14 the stop sign initiative is part of our efforts
15 to improve driver and pedestrian safety
16 throughout Scranton. Under her tenure, more
17 than 4,500 faded or damaged street signs and
18 stop signs throughout the city have been
19 replaced.
20 It was great to read this
21 information. As you know, I've been talking
22 about the stop signs for six years. And it was
23 good to see that there was 4,500 have been
24 replaced. When I had to gone to DPW six years
25 ago, there was 9,000 street signs in the City
11
1 of Scranton that needed to be addressed.
2 So at this rate, I guess we'll be
3 finished in another six years. But I'm hoping
4 that one day I could just stand here and say,
5 just thank the city and thank everyone that was
6 involved as to getting those street signs up
7 and just an improvement because I still
8 continue to get lost, especially in South Side,
9 you know, between Birch Street, Beech Street,
10 Pear Street and all those fruit streets and,
11 you know, you get a little bit -- at least I
12 get confused.
13 So I also wanted to mention I wasn't
14 sure if Suzy was going to be here tonight, but
15 as Dr. Rothchild mentioned about the Jimmy
16 Connors Day is Saturday. And we're just
17 encouraging everyone to come out and enjoy the
18 festivities of that day.
19 And there's all kinds of activities
20 including kids' activities. And it's going to
21 run -- I think the last band comes up at 5:00
22 which will run until probably about six. So
23 there's lots of live music that day. And
24 according to the weather report, we should have
25 a great day. And the weather should be just
12
1 about perfect for being outside.
2 And another activity that's going on
3 in the park on Saturday is on the other side of
4 the park, there is the Butonese celebration is
5 going on there. And it's always good to take
6 advantage of those types of activities at the
7 park, not only at the park, wherever they are
8 because it's always good to find out about
9 other cultures and other ethnicities that are
10 out there because we're all Americans.
11 We're all part of building the
12 melting pot of Scranton and of the United
13 States. So that is -- there's activities and
14 there's food that will be available. And their
15 hours are 10 to 4. So I'm just hoping that,
16 you know, everyone will get out and enjoy that
17 day and for both the activities that are going
18 on in Scranton at the park on Saturday.
19 And then, of course, on Sunday we
20 have our activity. It will be the Sunday
21 concerts which run from 2 to 4. And that will
22 be on Sunday as well and another activities
23 that are there for all the citizens of Scranton
24 to take advantage of. Thank you.
25 I've got a few more seconds.
13
1 Mr. Smurl, last week you mentioned about the
2 sidewalks and that the ordinance said that
3 there's no ordinance that says that you have to
4 have a sidewalk. But what about the repair of
5 the sidewalks once they're in? Is there an
6 ordinance that says that the -- once you have a
7 sidewalk that it should be in good repair?
8 MR. SMURL: Once they're in -- once
9 the sidewalks are in, you are responsible to
10 keep them up. And you need -- it said a path
11 to the front door and that's all it said. But
12 once they're installed, you need to maintain.
13 MS. JEFFRIES: Okay, so do I report
14 that or is that code enforcement or --
15 MR. SMURL: Of bad sidewalks, I
16 would probably Scranton 311 and to code
17 enforcement. They would be the ones that would
18 do that citation.
19 MS. JEFFRIES: Okay. That was my
20 question about that. Okay. Thank you.
21 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Angela
22 Ramone.
23 MS. RAMONE: Hello, it's good to see
24 everyone again. I just want to make sure you
25 could hear me first. I'm not going to be
14
1 commenting on any of the Seventh Order items
2 because I commented on all of those last week.
3 But I will be speaking a little bit on some of
4 the 5th and 6th Order items here mainly to do
5 with the grant the city wants to pursue for the
6 bike lane project that would connect the
7 downtown to Lackawanna Heritage Trail as well
8 as the Iron Works for about, like, six miles of
9 bike lanes in our city throughout downtown.
10 And specifically I'd like to
11 contextualize that cost with some of the other
12 agenda items tonight which would be the
13 elevator repair for one of our parking garages
14 downtown where the city is pursuing $153,000.
15 The six miles of bike lanes that the
16 city is seeking grants for is only about
17 two-thirds the cost of the elevator repair that
18 they are also requesting. And it would greatly
19 enhance the ability of Scranton residents and
20 the visitors to Scranton to get around our city
21 to see the beauty and any opportunities here
22 and also, of course, spending money downtown.
23 And I do know that there's many
24 comments especially over the past few months
25 regarding cyclists in the street and conflicts
15
1 with drivers. And as much as I would love to
2 say, like, we can just swing a wand around and
3 make everything perfect, that's not going to
4 happen.
5 We have very little bike
6 infrastructure within the City of Scranton.
7 And in spite of that, getting around on bikes
8 has become increasingly popular over the years
9 for a number of different reasons, both with
10 the low cost of cycling, the convenience of
11 using e-bikes, especially in hilly areas and
12 the low cost relative to driving that for many
13 people they found it suitable to even replace
14 their vehicles.
15 But my point is bikes aren't going
16 away. And we do need to make sure that we're
17 responsible and finding a way for people who
18 are getting around on bikes to share the road
19 responsibly with drivers.
20 And putting bike lanes in our city
21 is just one of the few things we could do to
22 address that because there's many people who
23 get to work on bikes. There's many who commute
24 to school on bikes. There's people who run
25 errands on bikes, go out for entertainment
16
1 using bikes.
2 And we want to make sure that we're
3 not needlessly allowing hazards and conflicts
4 to continue to exist in our city. So that's
5 all I have to say on the bike lanes. But
6 similar note for Item 5-H, that would be the
7 proposed crosswalks over on Davis Street.
8 I'm not sure if anyone here has used
9 these styles of crosswalks where they have the
10 usually brick crosswalks that have active
11 signals. It will flash whenever a pedestrian
12 hits a button. I've used them in many
13 different places, not just at the University of
14 Scranton or even in Scranton.
15 There's places like Olyphant that
16 have them in their downtown. And in my
17 experience as someone who's like generally
18 able-bodied and able to get around easily, I
19 found it much, much safer especially at night
20 trying to cross busy streets with those types
21 of signals because when we rely solely on the
22 standard pedestrian crossings that we see at
23 signalized intersections, drivers are often
24 looking up, like, all the way up at the lights
25 to see if they need to stop or go.
17
1 And that draws their attention away
2 from pedestrians at the corners waiting to
3 cross. But these specific styles of crosswalks
4 are relatively affordable to build. And they
5 are incredibly safe. And especially with a
6 busy street like Davis Street, we want to make
7 sure that people aren't going to be getting hit
8 by cars consistently.
9 So that's about all I have for
10 tonight. Like I said, I'm in support of the
11 previous things I talked about in Seventh
12 Order. And I do believe it would be in the
13 best interest of the city to let the City of
14 Scranton pursue grants for bike lanes and for
15 crosswalk improvements. Thank you very much
16 for your time.
17 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Bob Bolus.
18 MR. BOLUS: Council, Bob Bolus,
19 Scranton. First off, the American flag belongs
20 over there. When we just pledged allegiance,
21 we pledged to the wall. We don't pledge to the
22 flag. So if we could get that done and honor
23 our fellow veterans.
24 I would ask today, Mr. Smurl, if we
25 could have a moment of silence in memory of
18
1 Charlie Kirk who was brutally murdered. We
2 held a process for him Sunday at the County
3 Courthouse. I would ask if we could have that
4 for just a moment, please.
5 MR. SMURL: Would you like me to do
6 it next week or --
7 MR. BOLUS: No, I'd like to -- if we
8 could have a moment of silence right now just
9 in memory of him if we may, please?
10 MR. SMURL: All right. You could
11 ask for it, absolutely. We'll do it right now.
12 MR. BOLUS: Okay. Thank you. If
13 everyone -- if we could have a moment of
14 silence for Charlie Kirk, thank you.
15 (Moment of silence.)
16 MR. BOLUS: Thank you, sir. I knew
17 Charlie personally. I met him on several
18 occasions and we had a lot of dialogue between
19 us. And that was a tragedy what we saw that a
20 member of the queer organization decided he
21 shouldn't live because they didn't like what he
22 had to say.
23 And everybody has to understand this
24 is America under that flag. Everybody has a
25 right to speak. Everybody has a right to say
19
1 what they want to say. But to take a life of
2 an individual as they did is totally
3 unacceptable. And these people have to
4 understand that's why I argued about the queer
5 flags on the courthouse.
6 We got to put them where they
7 belong. You have something to say, that's
8 fine. But you don't jam it down our throat and
9 you don't murder our people because you don't
10 like what we got to say. I just delivered
11 $275,000 of disinfectant wipes to the flood
12 victims of Texas.
13 It was done on the Bob Bolus Donors
14 and Truckers for America and Trump trailer.
15 And I'm proud to have my picture and my name on
16 my trailer. And I couldn't have been prouder
17 to see that trailer in Florida, California,
18 Texas, Arizona, Kentucky, Tennessee, North and
19 South Carolina and Georgia.
20 My trailer was gone for four months
21 and I represented everybody here because on the
22 trailer it said Scranton, Pennsylvania. And
23 I'm damn proud to say I'm from Scranton. I'm
24 glad my trailer was able to represent all of us
25 in one way or the other.
20
1 You know, I've been coming here for
2 a long time. And what I see going on here
3 disturbs me. We have two hospitals that
4 don't -- nobody knows what the hell they want
5 to do with them, find a buyer, find somebody.
6 I want them to become employee owned.
7 And what we need to do is get our
8 state representatives or Congressmen, everybody
9 that is so-called political off their butts and
10 fund those two hospitals and make them employee
11 owned. They will pay taxes. But you'll have
12 people that will want to come to work.
13 I just -- I was at Geisinger for a
14 week. And I must tell you the service and the
15 treatment I received there was second to none.
16 So anybody's who's got something to say about
17 the hospitals and the people that serve -- take
18 care of us, get your head out of your butt
19 because they do a hell of a job for each and
20 every one of us.
21 And I commend everybody at Geisinger
22 for the treatment I received. But if we go
23 employee owned, everybody will want to come to
24 work. We'll have a medical staff here. We
25 have everything we need. So I'm asking
21
1 Bridget, Flynn, all of these other characters
2 out here that are all political, put your money
3 where your mouth is and fund these two
4 hospitals. Stop looking for somebody to buy
5 us, own us and control us with some
6 corporation.
7 Let the people of this community
8 serve the people in the community as owners of
9 those two hospitals. And that's what I'm
10 looking to say here. That's why I came here
11 tonight. I've been all over the world. I've
12 seen many things in many countries.
13 And to see these two hospitals and
14 the morale sinking because nobody knows what
15 the heck's going to happen next, I take it on
16 our officials, our public servants and that's
17 what you are, ladies and gentlemen. You are
18 our public servants. Do what's right for the
19 people. Make those two hospitals employee
20 owned. Thank you.
21 MR. SMURL: Thank you.
22 MR. BOLUS: And appreciate allowing
23 me to have that moment for Charlie. Thank you,
24 sir.
25 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Bolus.
22
1 Ron Ellman.
2 MR. ELLMAN: Good evening, Council,
3 I'd like to make one comment about Mr. Kirk
4 that I feel that these sick demented fools are
5 fuelled daily by hate-filled letters on
6 computers by people like Chris Kelly, Sandra
7 Myers, DeNiro, Colbert. It's not going to
8 stop.
9 You're never going to stop this
10 hatred that they have, all the vile supporters
11 in the paper that support them prove my point.
12 Next, there's a whole lot of stupid going on
13 here by the fools out there that you're
14 allowing this pathetic excuse of a Mayor that
15 is so consumed with her rebuilding downtown she
16 has abandoned us.
17 Her continual rape of our taxpayers
18 for the wealthy property owners downtown are at
19 our expense and grants are our tax money. For
20 some reason they think grants can -- not for
21 everybody. These outrageous tax cheats in this
22 city, they've gotten so much from us, tax
23 breaks and abatements and everything.
24 They haven't had many reassessment
25 lawyers. They don't have nothing left to
23
1 reassess like the rest of us do. I got that
2 from somebody working for the city. You know,
3 almost all of these hundred-plus buildings
4 downtown, some of them even got the dates on
5 the front of them.
6 Every last one of them that these
7 guys get ahold of are on the national register
8 of historic places. And they received the
9 utmost of state and federal tax credit. I
10 don't know why some of these hundred year old
11 houses in town can't be -- fit in there.
12 It seems like the laws of this city
13 are meant for a few. I don't know if you
14 people know it, any building, any of these
15 historic places that's on the register are not
16 allowed to sell alcohol.
17 One block from here that beautiful
18 home that they made into that fancy restaurant
19 where those two men when they first opened,
20 Rosie and me ate there. They didn't have beer
21 or nothing. He -- it's against the law. But
22 not in Scranton, not in crooked Scranton.
23 It's allowed here. Look at your
24 downtown, full of bars in these old hundred
25 year old houses -- buildings. I don't know.
24
1 It seems like Paige is so consumed with
2 rebuilding Main Street. I've been here since
3 '72 and I've never seen somebody riding a
4 bicycle downtown, yet she wants to take a lane
5 from the automobiles on one of the most
6 trafficked streets in the city for bicycles.
7 That's her thinking. It's not for
8 us. It's for a few people like a, what, a
9 tenth of the city? I don't know. I always
10 call this crooked Scranton because it still
11 stinks from the sour stench of graft and
12 corruption. And it's nothing I could do about
13 it.
14 All we could ask is you don't vote
15 for a failure. Paige Cognetti represents
16 failure. Real quick, these electric vehicles,
17 there's a little kid went by my house Sunday.
18 He must have been five or six. He was holding
19 a baby, couldn't have been like two or so in
20 his lap on a little lousy bike.
21 When he passed me, he took off as
22 fast as that bike would go. There got to be
23 some kind of control for these people. They
24 don't have enough brains. And their parents
25 don't seem to have enough brains to --
25
1 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Ellman.
2 Thank you.
3 MR. ELLMAN: -- do something. Thank
4 you.
5 MR. SMURL: Lee Morgan. Good
6 evening, Council, Lee Morgan. I think the
7 first thing I have here today is I did an
8 interlocutory appeal to the Third Circuit over
9 the case with ECTV which is going to pause this
10 case until they look at it because the
11 attorney -- I mean, the Judge Bloom made some
12 serious errors in this case.
13 And case law doesn't support his
14 contentions. I had to do a letter brief to him
15 about Hallock versus Manhattan because he tried
16 to -- he was misinformed on what the Supreme
17 Court ruled. So he's a little upset right now.
18 But maybe he'll get over it. But I'm only a
19 truck driver, but I think when the dust
20 settles, I think people are going to be shocked
21 because we're just starting through the
22 discovery process, believe it or not.
23 We've got a long way to go and
24 there's a lot of prospective litigants that are
25 standing in front of me, not here necessarily,
26
1 but -- and the other thing I want to shift
2 gears on is, you know, you don't see any
3 buildings burning. You don't see any looting
4 going on. It's just calm, okay?
5 Now, it's my opinion that a Civil
6 Rights leader was assassinated, never watched
7 one of his videos, never watched one of Charlie
8 Kirk's videos in my life. And then the other
9 day they start coming through my YouTube feed.
10 So I sat down and watched them. Now, we listen
11 to the Democrats talk about everybody being a
12 Nazi or Hitler or a fascist.
13 And, you know, you see their actions
14 like after Trump got elected and the comedian
15 held up a head -- a severed head of Trump. We
16 just had a severed head in Texas where an
17 illegal cut the head off a guy even though his
18 wife tried to save him.
19 This is what Democrats have given
20 us. The Democrats created the KKK, no doubt in
21 anybody's mind about that. Joe Biden was
22 the -- gave the eulogy of the -- the Dragon,
23 the Grand Dragon of the KKK.
24 The Democrats on the Supreme Court
25 decided that they could -- that they were only
27
1 slaves and weren't entitled to be citizens,
2 okay. You got them protecting the teachers'
3 unions as they're grooming children, okay, and
4 talking all of this stuff and trying to tell
5 people they're born the wrong gender and
6 they're only little children.
7 And the educational process has
8 absolutely collapsed in our country.
9 Everything points to that. The teachers'
10 unions have to be removed and education has to
11 return where it belongs. But getting back to
12 Charlie Kirk, you know, I think that when
13 history looks at him and in the next election,
14 I think people are going to be surprised
15 because all he did was debate people and talk
16 about God, watched hours of his videos, just
17 hours, never said a bad thing about one person,
18 never condemned anybody, never belittled
19 anybody, invited everybody into the forum of
20 discussion.
21 But when you listen to what the
22 Democrats are saying, okay, Crocket, the whole
23 bunch of them in the Congress and Senate, all
24 talking about hunting people down, Waters.
25 Hunt all the Republicans down or anybody who
28
1 doesn't agree with you, find them wherever they
2 are, preach nothing but hate all the time.
3 That's all the Democrats do is preach hate and
4 division.
5 They have nothing to offer the
6 people just like here in Scranton, they
7 don't -- Democrats don't offer us anything
8 except decline, decay, over taxation and a
9 million excuses why we can't use the Rome Rule
10 Charter to turn the city around and having a
11 Mayor who doesn't even live in the city on the
12 ballot.
13 And not a Republican that's running
14 for office will challenge her on that and hire
15 a private detective to find out where she lives
16 and do something about it. You have to ask
17 yourself, okay, how did our country get this
18 bad? How did people walk away from a system
19 and how long are we going to allow the
20 Democrats to do the things they're doing to us?
21 And it's not a personal attack, but
22 this Charlie Kirk thing is ridiculous. And
23 it's all driven by Democrats, every bit of it.
24 And Republicans, I don't see them telling
25 anybody to do anything violent to anybody.
29
1 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Morgan.
2 That's all for our sign-in sheet. Anyone else
3 wish to address Council?
4 MR. COYNE: Tom Coyne, Minooka.
5 First, I guess we're going to see photos of the
6 Mayor's projects in the Times every week now
7 until the election. It must be nice to get
8 free political advertisement when you have the
9 biggest war chest.
10 First it was the beautiful homes,
11 then it was the new LED stop signs. And then
12 it was the soon to be water project while
13 standing next to a hole in the streets. All
14 updates and projects are rolled out just before
15 election.
16 Are we holding off on bidding and
17 contracting for the Nay Aug Christmas lights
18 until after the election as it made people
19 upset? I figure we should have seen that by
20 now. And I remember -- remember people, the
21 Mayor wants you to give her $95,000 so she
22 could get paid while not doing the job because
23 she'll be busy running for another political
24 position.
25 Onto tonight's topics, speaking of
30
1 DPW projects projects, I would like to thank
2 DPW for after three to four years of requesting
3 coming to Oak Avenue and building up a small 60
4 foot blacktop curb section. It eroded and
5 causing a neighbor to deal with flooding every
6 rainfall.
7 A simple curb fix prevented the
8 owner's constant issue of having to deal with
9 4 foot of water that was diverted in every
10 single rain storm that went into their backyard
11 and down the hill and flooded their homes.
12 Dr. Rothchild often complains of
13 clogged water runoff drains in her area that
14 they need to be vacuum trucked to be cleaned
15 out. Well, it's good that that's done. My
16 section of town has not had any rain water,
17 waste water pipes ever installed.
18 I guess 60 years is not long enough
19 to wait for city services. We have issues
20 doing the buildings that were cleared east of
21 the neighborhood without proper water
22 management. Last storm there was a major
23 flooding in a section that was repeatedly hit
24 and reported for years.
25 There was an issue of the city when
31
1 it's paving, it does not mill down the roads
2 but they do a surface skim. I've seen roads
3 with five layers of blacktop deep. The issue
4 is, those roads now serve as high ground
5 forcing the water over curbs and into driveways
6 that were at one time above the road surface.
7 Do our paving projects ever evaluate
8 the slope and if the road is getting raised up
9 too much by repeated layering? Onto tonight's
10 subjects on the board, Resolution 5-C, a
11 Steamtown Church. Why is this resolution here?
12 Simple. Because the uneven sidewalks have
13 caused a trip and fall hazard. They claim it's
14 to make the neighborhood safer and beautify it.
15 But it was stated that it was done
16 after several individuals experienced minor
17 incidents to the uneven sidewalks. The
18 Steamtown Church purchased the property and is
19 asking for public funds to be used to serve a
20 nonprofit to fix an issue they ignored as the
21 owners of the property.
22 So the citizens of the state are
23 supposed to entertain a grant for a nonprofit
24 because they failed to maintain and fix issues
25 on the property leaving a known hazardous area
32
1 and they desire taxpayers to repair it.
2 It states the new sidewalk would
3 demonstrate the church's commitment to
4 maintaining a safe and attractive community
5 space, but it's not the church's commitment.
6 It's the taxpayers commitment to a nonprofit
7 who shirked repair of their own property.
8 I would like to know when the city
9 first received the request. I see City Council
10 received it on 9/11. OECD did a resolution on
11 9/9, but nowhere even on the church's request
12 letter is there an actual original date of
13 submission for the grant.
14 I ask this because it's noted a
15 September 30th deadline. And not shocking, we
16 have three sessions before the deadline
17 including tonight. This precludes holding off
18 or getting real answers. Mr. McAndrew said you
19 have last minute legislation that lacks -- as
20 lacking as thrown before this board constantly.
21 It must pass in three sessions. The
22 original date request where applied was
23 nowhere. And I'd love to know what that is.
24 As a matter of fact, we have eight LSA grants
25 introduced tonight that all have a drop dead
33
1 date of September 30th that were all drafted on
2 9/11.
3 Hummer bid submitted on August 15
4 for the Weston Park Field. It took 19 business
5 days to get here at the last minute.
6 Providence Pregnancy Center, a nonprofit, wants
7 us to pay to pave their lots and to do their
8 roots.
9 The parking contractor wants us
10 after asking for a ton of money the last time
11 must not have remembered that their elevator
12 was broken and now wants more money on top of
13 it to fix their garages. This has got to stop.
14 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Coyne.
15 MR. COYNE: It's got to stop.
16 MR. MANCINI: Good evening,
17 Scranton City Council, Mike Mancini, Scranton.
18 Tonight we'll play a very familiar game on the
19 question. On the question, how important is
20 safety to each one of you? Last week I asked
21 very specific question pertaining to drugs and
22 unwanted opioid related deaths.
23 One question was answered, one that
24 we already knew the answer to, Lackawanna
25 County and the State Police have always
34
1 collaborated when any type of crime happens in
2 our city.
3 The city reaches out and they're
4 there. So technically, none of my questions
5 were answered last week. I would recommend
6 that each one of you get a piece of paper,
7 something to write with because I do not ask
8 questions just for me.
9 I ask them for others because they
10 need the same answers. Council owes it to
11 everyone to answer those questions when asked
12 because it's a basic requirement. To be
13 disrespectful to a speaker without answering
14 shows who you really are, just another cricket.
15 City of Scranton cannot afford
16 another minute of this Council's
17 ineffectiveness when it comes to just about
18 anything. On the question, what does each of
19 you think about the shortage of Scranton Police
20 Officers? In March, 2024, Scranton Police
21 Department had 147 full-time officers and 20
22 nonsworn civilian personnel.
23 I attribute the shortage of over 30
24 officers to switching to the police testing
25 from the same used by the Scranton Police --
35
1 sorry, State Police to National Testing Network
2 while cities use -- that use this test go down
3 to a 55 score. Scranton uses 70.
4 April of 2024, 130 took this new
5 test with over 100 not passing. The test ended
6 up providing our amazing Scranton Police
7 Department with only four officers. I
8 attribute the shortage to the change in
9 testing. Not one of you asked any questions
10 about why we are short officers.
11 Well, that's the answer, the change
12 in testing. Something else that changed was a
13 removal of the Narcotics Unit. At one time we
14 had 13 officers which were specific to drug
15 activity. Since the Mayor changed the police
16 department, now we only have five.
17 On the question, how important are
18 unwanted opioid related deaths to each of you?
19 We have five officers that work extremely hard
20 and need help. Politics and policing do not
21 mix. Only 2 percent of unwanted opioid related
22 deaths end up getting prosecuted.
23 Here in Scranton we have zero. We
24 have a Mayor who has created this climate. She
25 even has an extra set of doors locked in the
36
1 City of Scranton. The safety of our citizens
2 here in Scranton should be the top priority,
3 continue to lose our city daily to those who
4 sell drugs and guns, putting our finest in
5 danger because of the shortage that the Mayor
6 and the City Council has created.
7 When Council does not ask questions,
8 nor utilize its caucus to get them, you also
9 contribute to our problems daily. We have over
10 300 gang members active in our Scranton School
11 District.
12 It is not the extra -- it was not to
13 the -- to this extent five years ago. We need
14 change across the board. We deserve character.
15 We desire those who pay attention, look for the
16 problems before they begin with solutions. I
17 know what it looks like and feels like to lose
18 someone due to the opioid crisis, my only
19 child.
20 I'll get justice and closure.
21 Locally we do not have that. Not answering
22 questions means you condone these problems,
23 embracing them as if they were your own. So on
24 the question, do you think -- what do you think
25 attributed to the police shortage?
37
1 Is it alarming that only five
2 officers are dedicated to drug activity? How
3 many convictions since January 1st of 2020 for
4 opioid related deaths? How important is the
5 safety of our citizens and our finest?
6 To the good people of Scranton, on
7 the question, do you deserve better to a
8 Scranton Police Department? Thank you. Good
9 evening, Council.
10 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Anyone else?
11 MS. SCHUMACHER: Good evening, Marie
12 Schumacher. I had problem and I don't know
13 maybe I just -- my fingers were sick. But I
14 had something happen at my house and I have
15 a -- somebody I could call. And when I tried
16 to call it, it was -- I couldn't get through.
17 So I went to the police, which I
18 called at 348-4130 which I got off the computer
19 and nobody answered that either. So I don't
20 know if that's wrong or if the numbers that's
21 on the computer are wrong, I don't know.
22 I would also like to know when will
23 the West Locust Bridge, the one between South
24 Scranton and West Side, when will that bridge
25 be useable again? It's been a very long time
38
1 at least to me.
2 MR. SMURL: Yes, I don't know a
3 completion date.
4 MS. SCHUMACHER: Pardon?
5 MR. SMURL: I don't know when it's
6 going to be usable.
7 MS. SCHUMACHER: Well, also, there's
8 another between at Waldorf Lane and Sky, those
9 two, there's a section that has six of the
10 city's horses, you know, the wooden ones.
11 MR. SMURL: Yes.
12 MS. SCHUMACHER: And as far as I
13 could tell, nothing's been done there. But now
14 you have to go out into the other lane when
15 you're going down a hill.
16 MR. SMURL: I was told that should
17 be done within a week. I asked about it
18 yesterday.
19 MS. SCHUMACHER: Good, can't happen
20 too soon. But I think why can't that be on the
21 computer? I mean, when there are traffic
22 sections that are having something done, I
23 think everybody would like to be able to go on
24 the computer and find out when they -- what
25 they -- what they're doing and when it's going
39
1 to end. So I think that would be nice.
2 I cannot read my writing -- my own
3 writing here. I don't know. I'll have to keep
4 that one for next week because I can't read my
5 own writing.
6 MR. SMURL: Marie, will you just
7 tell me that number you dialled again,
8 348-41 --
9 MS. SCHUMACHER: Oh, sure, 348-4130.
10 MR. SMURL: Okay. Yeah, the only
11 one I know -- that I know is 348-4141 and then
12 911 naturally. I don't know about 30 -- I
13 don't know if anybody else knows --
14 MS. SCHUMACHER: Okay. Well, I
15 don't know.
16 MR. SMURL: All right. Mr.
17 Voldenberg, will you check to see if that is
18 online that we're giving that number out, 4130?
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
20 MR. SMURL: Thank you.
21 MS. SCHUMACHER: Okay. Thank you.
22 MR. SMURL: Anyone else?
23 MR. ARGENTA: Virgil Argenta,
24 Scranton. To clear up the East Mountain -- I
25 posted that a couple weeks. I spoke to the
40
1 director yesterday. And he said East Mountain
2 is out for bid and he wants to get it fixed.
3 But call-offs within the DPW and the project
4 manager who is calling the shots continue to
5 have this project on standby. So that's the
6 reason.
7 It has nothing to do with -- except
8 with DPW guys calling off and the project
9 manager having have them on standby. I've
10 reported that for two weeks and I took videos
11 and I also took pictures. Another thing you
12 may want to address that we're blaming the city
13 and the Council -- and I'll take responsibility
14 for that that you are not doing your job.
15 Most of these sewer drains are the
16 Pennsylvania American Water Company. And
17 Pennsylvania American Water Company is failing
18 to work with the city. So someone in the city
19 administration needs to get tougher and go
20 after American Water Company so that we do not
21 blame the city officials, Council, or the
22 Mayor.
23 And I'll take, you know,
24 responsibility for that because I blamed
25 Council, the Mayor, and yourselves and it's
41
1 not. It's the working of American Water
2 Company. So if you want to have somebody be a
3 point person and put the pressure on them
4 because we do deserve better. Thank you,
5 Mr. Smurl.
6 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Argenta.
7 Anyone else?
8 MR. DOBRZYN: Good evening, Council,
9 Dave Dobrzyn. I missed last week due to
10 somebody with an overpowered impact. I
11 couldn't get my own car part and other parts
12 broke and lots more. Watch those impacts when
13 you go to a mechanic shop. They're
14 overtorquing.
15 Anyhow, hopefully on the 500 block
16 which was an interest of mine, there will be no
17 stop lamp take away. Hopefully we can have a
18 bike lane. I don't favor bike lanes downtown.
19 And that's all there is to it. I just don't
20 favor them. It's confusing enough down there.
21 People get killed. I stood on that
22 island with the pizza and people zooming by me
23 and I was glad for it. So if they're going to
24 change it, they're going to change it. But I
25 will remind the speakers that come up here that
42
1 that was a Republican idea.
2 And let's get to reassess. I don't
3 know why adjacent to my house -- I just bought
4 it because missy could putter around in it and
5 she's not pesting me when I'm in the house or
6 whatever and not to bad. We're married a long,
7 long time, longer than some people are alive up
8 there.
9 And anyway, they reassessed it at --
10 I bought it for $3,100. They reassessed it at
11 $32,200. And I certainly hope that I don't get
12 one heck of a bill because I can't afford it.
13 It's above my head. And it's not
14 constructible. So that's what my argument is.
15 I had an appeal down there and I got
16 rejected. And my -- I tried to go to court but
17 it's like, well, we don't see it that way, you
18 know, so that's not right. As far as police,
19 people with good personality trait should be
20 given help in passing. But they must pass, no
21 curve.
22 I've seen it in technical school
23 where there is big curves. And the next thing
24 you know a guy or two gets loose or whatever
25 while -- I was a guy course type person and it
43
1 makes a name for the school. And, yeah, well,
2 then everybody gets that name and title.
3 And I've been watching this AI. And
4 I don't know what we need all of this computing
5 for. Do they want to know whether I have
6 pimples on my back or what? But anyway, mine
7 water, could be used for cooling and heating.
8 It's 45 degrees Fahrenheit year round.
9 Electrical, I don't have an answer
10 for yet. But geothermal would be the answer to
11 that. Don't drive my water bill out through
12 the ceiling, please. I don't need to see water
13 going down the sewer that's fresh. It's very
14 expensive nowadays as you may have noticed.
15 Now, all week I have hearing
16 radical left lunatics when Frank Pelosi got
17 struck on the head with a hammer, he was
18 potentially a gay lover. Other situations
19 unite the right, somebody hit a lady with a
20 car, killed her.
21 We had January 6th and when our FBI
22 Director Patel, got news of this he said we
23 will see you in Valhalla. Well, Valhalla was
24 pagan heaven for Vikings that died in battle.
25 You had to die in battle. You had to die from
44
1 the sword or an ax or something else. So who
2 has the wrong mind plot here?
3 MR. SMURL: Thank you.
4 MR. DOBRZYN: Thank you and have a
5 good night.
6 MR. SMURL: Anyone else?
7 MR. LITTLE: Hello. I'm Rik Little,
8 still running for Mayor of Scranton. Went to
9 the library today, picked up the city budget.
10 Doesn't make a lot of sense to me to spend two
11 and a half million on Biden Street streetscape
12 considering everything else that's going on.
13 I'd like to just say that we came
14 very close to losing our whole country. Things
15 are moving around and we are all Charlie Kirk.
16 He -- all he did was communicate with people,
17 no inequality, none of the stuff that the whole
18 globalist network pushes.
19 When it comes to politics,
20 especially at the municipal and county level, I
21 mean, I come from Illinois which has more
22 municipalities than any other thing. But I'm
23 looking at these Home Rule Charters. I mean,
24 when they're passed it goes back to a court
25 case called the Dillon Act because the judge
45
1 was named Dillon.
2 And it was something like Clinton
3 versus Railroads. That's what made it legal to
4 have a Home Rule Charter which we have in
5 Lackawanna County. And, you know, it's just
6 going through the machinations of the judicial
7 branch. And that is the big problem.
8 If you can't see the big problem in
9 our government, it's just like Thomas Jefferson
10 said in 1802, like, thieves in the night with
11 case law we're going to lose our republic
12 through this. And he was right. And all the
13 prosecutions of Trump and all of these people
14 goes on in the media.
15 We have to get a handle on that --
16 that sort of thing around here. I'm reading in
17 the budget, you know, about, you know, shall
18 be, you know, if any section of this clause or
19 ordinance shall be held invalid or
20 unconstitutional by a court of common
21 jurisdiction, it shall not affect anything
22 else.
23 Well, I certainly went through the
24 ringer. They made me homeless at Scranton
25 Housing Authority. And they plug people in.
46
1 They plug the managers in. And these managers
2 are on the speed dial of the judges.
3 So when I talk to the judge, it's
4 like, oh, you know, I'm going to call them up.
5 We know them. And I even met with the Mayor
6 and she confirmed that, yeah, they're all on
7 the speed dial. This is a lot of property.
8 And, you know, I saw right away when I moved in
9 there that it was a criminal racket going on,
10 fires every single week.
11 And they have to get the Fire Chief
12 to sign off for the Harry Insurance Company.
13 And you call the police and the police say see
14 the manager. And so I fought it for five
15 years. And, you know, these judges and
16 magistrates, these are part of the government.
17 And that's the problem in
18 Pennsylvania. There's three judges running.
19 Nobody vote for those judges because that, you
20 know, just as in and the whole federal sphere,
21 it's very much real in the Pennsylvania sphere
22 because these people run and you don't know
23 what they are -- not that it means anything,
24 Democrat, Republican.
25 But it's basically this town is a
47
1 Democrat run thing. And people are going crazy
2 now, you know, misconstruing. They aren't
3 educated about the Constitution Freedom of
4 Speech. And we have to make this place better.
5 There has to be leadership, leadership. We
6 need a DPW in this city that has pride and
7 works.
8 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Anyone else?
9 MR. VOLDENBERG: FIFTH ORDER. 5-A.
10 MOTIONS.
11 MR. SMURL: I will do Mr. King's
12 motions at the end. Mr. Schuster, do you have
13 any motions or comments?
14 MR. SCHUSTER: Yes, I have a few.
15 Last week we had the Scranton Redevelopment
16 Authority Director in the other day. I did ask
17 about their annual budgets and if they had any
18 audited financial statements. She said she
19 would provide them. Did she send any of that
20 over to Council?
21 MR. VOLDENBERG: Not as yet. She is
22 preparing them.
23 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. Thank you very
24 much if we could just follow up on those.
25 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will.
48
1 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. I sent in
2 the ten hundred block Cottage Ave, a little
3 while ago. There was an update on it but I
4 didn't receive it. I believe Mr. Smurl got an
5 update on Cottage Ave.
6 MR. SMURL: On one of the structures
7 there, yeah. People were getting in at night.
8 And I believe they were taking the plywood off
9 the front door and going in. And in the
10 morning when they left, they were just pushing
11 the plywood back. So I did send it down. They
12 said they would go board it up properly.
13 MR. SCHUSTER: That one's on the
14 condemn list but not on the demo list, correct,
15 Mr. Voldenberg?
16 MR. VOLDENBERG: That's correct.
17 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank
18 you. I got a call today about South Summer.
19 The water main and the lateral -- the lateral
20 connectors there where the road has been cut
21 it's starting to sink. Is it possible that we
22 could get an update on when South Summer will
23 be milled and paved if we don't have that
24 already?
25 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will.
49
1 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank you
2 very much. That's not going to be done before
3 the winter, which I hope it is. We do have to
4 get them to go out and fill that so it's --
5 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'm sure it's on
6 the 2025 paving list. But I'll double-check.
7 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank you
8 very much. I also got a call about the
9 intersection of Pittston and Pear. I sent over
10 some photographs today. There's large holes on
11 the curbs on the road which makes it difficult
12 to park in that area. So if we could have them
13 go to that area --
14 MR. VOLDENBERG: They were received
15 by 311.
16 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
17 We also received an e-mail about 2501 Boulevard
18 Ave. I know everybody on Council got it. It
19 was a message from Mr. Romantics. Going back
20 quite some time I got Mr. Romantics in contact
21 with Tom Reilly the City Engineer as well as
22 Morgan Fetsock.
23 So the two of them are really aware
24 of the situation that's been going on there for
25 quite some time. Do we know if anyone from the
50
1 city administration has reached out to him at
2 this point?
3 MR. VOLDENBERG: I sent that to the
4 administration to revisit it and I spoke with
5 Mr. Romantics this morning.
6 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. Can we just
7 make sure that someone, whether it be Morgan or
8 whether it be a city engineer gives him a call
9 and make sure that they call and talk with him?
10 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. And we're
11 including the water company also.
12 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank you
13 very much. That's all I have for tonight.
14 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster.
15 Dr. Rothchild, do you have any motions or
16 comments?
17 DR. ROTHCHILD: Yes, I have a few.
18 Thank you. I was asked again to bring up the
19 crosswalks on Harrison Avenue that have not
20 been repainted yet. So if we could get in
21 contact with them again? I previously spoken
22 with our BA about it. So I'm not sure what the
23 status is.
24 I know that the city has done them
25 in the past even though it's a state road. So
51
1 I don't know if they are trying to get the
2 state to do them instead, but if we could --
3 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. I'll get a
4 status for you.
5 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. And
6 there's a property I brought up quite a few
7 times in the past and neighbors were asking
8 about it again to see what was going on with
9 it. It's 621 Rear Alder Street.
10 So I know in the past they tried
11 taking people to the magistrate regarding that
12 property, not clear on what's happened since.
13 But it's still a vacant blighted property
14 that's not being used.
15 MR. VOLDENBERG: I believe that was
16 on the demo list. I'll followup on its status.
17 DR. ROTHCHILD: I thought so too but
18 nothing's happened with it.
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: It's been a while.
20 I agree.
21 DR. ROTHCHILD: Okay. Thank you.
22 And over in Nay Aug Park there's the two
23 playgrounds now, the newer butterfly playground
24 and then there is still an older structure
25 that's there. And there are -- I know that
52
1 it -- it's in need of mulch. And I discussed
2 this with Councilman Smurl who said that there
3 was an issue with being able to get the rubber
4 mulch up to that section of the park because of
5 the other ongoing construction.
6 But there are quite a lot of weeds
7 around the swings and areas that children are
8 playing. And I was up there over the weekend
9 and it was quite busy. It stills gets a lot of
10 use by children. But it is -- the equipment is
11 in poor shape.
12 There was a piece of wood missing
13 from part of it that I'm afraid a child could
14 fall through. So I could forward along photos
15 of some of the repairs and cleanup that's
16 needed there.
17 MR. VOLDENBERG: And I'll notify
18 Parks and Rec.
19 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. And
20 we're still having beautiful weather. So, I
21 mean, our parks are still being utilized a lot.
22 We still have some time to do that. And just
23 to provide an update on a complaint I received
24 about Capouse Avenue an old broken -- I don't
25 know if it was telephone pole that needed to be
53
1 removed.
2 And I was told that DPW was
3 addressing it for removal. But I haven't
4 gotten confirmation as to -- if it has been
5 removed yet. So perhaps we could check on the
6 status of that. That's been --
7 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. I'll speak
8 with the acting director.
9 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. And I
10 had also asked about updates from American
11 Water regarding their projects and when pavings
12 and full restoration would take place. And
13 Mr. Oselinski replied very quickly with updated
14 list with I think about 29 different projects
15 and approximations of when they should be
16 complete.
17 It looks like all them should be by
18 October, so fingers crossed that all happens.
19 And I just wanted to respond to something that
20 Mr. Mancini was asking about. He had some
21 questions and I -- I appreciate the passion
22 that he has for addressing drug related crime
23 within the city and the opioid crisis and I am
24 sorry for the loss that you've had.
25 And I hope that you've gotten
54
1 justice for your son and that you find peace.
2 But I know I've been connected a lot in past to
3 different recovery organizations and gone on
4 tours and participated in events around even
5 though I'm not someone in recovery.
6 But I just know a lot of people in
7 that community and so I, you know, I do believe
8 it's important to -- for it to be addressed.
9 And I do believe that our police department is
10 doing that. I understand the concerns with
11 the -- with the staffing shortage.
12 And I don't think we can attribute
13 that to any particular thing or like the
14 changes in the exam. I don't think correlation
15 equals causation. I know that Chief Carroll
16 has been in here in the past and has talked
17 about the struggles that they have had with
18 staffing and some of the reasons behind that.
19 And I think it being a larger trend
20 that we're seeing across the country of having
21 difficulty finding officers. And so I think
22 some of these changes they're trying to make
23 are to get more officers. I mean, we can -- we
24 can certainly ask for, you know, more
25 clarification if there are any other barriers
55
1 that they feel like they're having that -- that
2 we can help so that we are a fully staffed
3 police department.
4 But I know things like what's on for
5 the legislation tonight is to help that
6 situation. So that's all I have to say on
7 that. Thank you.
8 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Dr.
9 Rothchild. Mr. McAndrew, any motions or
10 comments?
11 MR. MCANDREW: Thank you, a few. So
12 a blighted property on 711 West Elm Street has
13 been brought to my attention. Neighbors are
14 telling me that the resident is always throwing
15 garbage in the backyard which is attracting
16 skunks and possums and other animals.
17 I guess there's also a washer and
18 dryer that is in the yard, a refrigerator is
19 sitting on the back porch. It's been for a few
20 weeks now. I think I forwarded the pictures to
21 you earlier. And I guess he's having problems
22 with the neighbor.
23 He's always screaming at the
24 neighbor's dog. So if you could just please
25 pass that onto the proper departments to take a
56
1 look at.
2 MR. VOLDENBERG: I did. That was
3 sent this morning upon receipt of your e-mail.
4 MR. MCANDREW: Okay. Thank you.
5 Also, I know I brought this up before. But the
6 property behind Burger King on Meridian Avenue
7 across from the Dollar Store is extremely
8 overgrown, got worse.
9 A resident has to drive by there all
10 the time say, you know, he can't go down the
11 road and to check if there's another car coming
12 it's becoming a public safety issue. So he's
13 concerned about that and so am I because I know
14 the area.
15 Then the 900 block of Brook Street
16 where it kind of meets this log road in the
17 crossroads, it leads down to where the train
18 track is for the trolley. It runs over there.
19 There's a substantial amount of growth there
20 that even cars driving by are scratching --
21 they're scratching their cars.
22 And the neighbors used to actually
23 take it upon themselves and cut it back, but
24 it's just too much for them anymore. So if you
25 could alert code enforcement with that,
57
1 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will.
2 MR. MCANDREW: Also, I mean, I
3 brought this up more than once. This is a
4 crosswalk. I mean, they're everywhere now.
5 You can't walk anywhere without walking over a
6 crosswalk. And that's great, but I still think
7 the schools should be the biggest focus.
8 And I know that I brought this issue
9 up in the past. So it's the update on the 1739
10 Dickson Avenue Lincoln Jackson Academy
11 crosswalk. So if we could please get an update
12 on that. I know there was a little pause
13 because of the, you know, the engineering, the
14 City Engineer and what have you and a
15 conversation with PennDOT.
16 But it's the fourth week of school.
17 Like I said, there's crosswalks everywhere. I
18 think this is a priority. So I'd like to know
19 what happened if we could please be updated
20 with that.
21 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
22 MR. MCANDREW: Speaking of storm
23 drains like everybody does every week and I
24 realize, you know, we've asked this before.
25 And we've asked the city to please identify
58
1 which ones are ours and which ones are American
2 Water.
3 I don't think we ever got a true
4 list who owns who -- whom's, but whatever, when
5 I do see horses just put around them, sometimes
6 it just says Scranton. Sometimes it says DPW.
7 I want to know for sure, first of all, how long
8 are horses, you know, they're put there with an
9 intent to come back and fix it, right, but my
10 question is, every collapsed storm drain or
11 hole I see around a storm drain in the city
12 with horses in front of it or barricading it,
13 are they all ours?
14 Or are they barricading these storm
15 drains that are owned by American Water and
16 waiting for them to come to fulfill their
17 responsibility? I just need that
18 clarification.
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask those
20 questions.
21 MR. MCANDREW: Like I said, in
22 addition, okay, once we identify that it's
23 collapsed, I mean, I don't want to hear that
24 we're waiting to fix all of these with the
25 stormwater project, because that's not the
59
1 answer I want to hear.
2 I just want to know how long is it
3 going to -- when it's identified, what's the
4 time, okay, we take a look at it, when do we
5 fix it. All right. And if we identify that
6 it's not ours, well, then are we putting up
7 horses and protecting American Water's
8 damaged -- not protecting it but, you know,
9 just putting a band aid on it when American
10 Water should be fixing it. If you could just
11 clarify all of that for me because --
12 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will.
13 MR. MCANDREW: It's getting more and
14 more visual throughout the --
15 MR. VOLDENBERG: And we're still
16 waiting on the water company basin list. I'll
17 follow up on that also.
18 MR. MCANDREW: Yeah, okay, but we
19 need to hear from them. So I also inquired
20 last week over the piece of legislation if I
21 was missing something. If I was missing in the
22 legislation -- it was a lot of money regarding
23 Lackawanna Avenue, all right, the bike lanes
24 and what have you.
25 And I asked a question. I said,
60
1 okay, if it's not in this legislation, is there
2 legislation coming down based on the
3 walkability study that, you know, was, you
4 know, a lot of residents didn't have the
5 opportunity to meet.
6 I think there was only one meeting
7 and voice their concerns and issues that is
8 there legislation coming down to remove the
9 stop lights and replace them with signs -- stop
10 sign. I don't agree with it. So I am
11 reporting out what the response I got is.
12 That doesn't mean I like it or in
13 agreement. It says technical specifications
14 for the legislation are currently being
15 completed by the project engineers. Once
16 completed, it will be sent to Council.
17 So I take that as they already
18 decided, all right. They pretty much made the
19 decision after one meeting not really --
20 because I hear a lot about it all the time,
21 Mark, you can't change streetlights for stop
22 signs, not downtown. I mean, that's absurd,
23 especially on Lackawanna Avenue.
24 So I got my answer. So I'm going to
25 wait for this legislation. I can't wait for
61
1 it. I know I'm not in favor of it. I'm just
2 letting you know it's coming. And I was
3 wondering when it was coming. And I was right.
4 It is coming.
5 Also, last week I inquired about
6 maybe a different strategy for, you know, the
7 ATV situation that it's gotten worse. It's
8 never gotten better. I know that we had an
9 ordinance. I know we tightened it up a little
10 bit. But it's not working. So I did ask last
11 week if there was anything in the works or if
12 there's a new strategy or at least we could
13 have a dialogue with the administration
14 including electric bikes that seem to be
15 everywhere, you know.
16 We need to enforce this especially
17 electric bikes. There's kids like Mr. Ellman
18 said. It's horrible. I see them on the same
19 Main Avenue that he does. All right. So they
20 never responded, right?
21 MR. VOLDENBERG: That is
22 forthcoming. They advised us today they'll
23 have the answer next week.
24 MR. MCANDREW: All right. In
25 addition to my inquiry about, you know, what's
62
1 strategy for all of these cars that are parked
2 on sidewalks and in yards, all right, that are
3 very visible throughout city now.
4 MR. VOLDENBERG: Same. They're all
5 police department questions.
6 MR. MCANDREW: All right. Well,
7 thank you. I look forward to them answers next
8 week. That's all I have. Thank you.
9 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. McAndrew.
10 This is response from Mr. King -- Councilman
11 King from I believe it was from the Chief that
12 he had asked questions on legislation is for
13 entry level officers only.
14 And number two is must have
15 completed Act 120 certification. Officers from
16 outside of Pennsylvania would need to complete
17 all of the sections of Act 120. And the third
18 is higher rank transfers will be paid with
19 experience.
20 The fourth is budgeted is 152
21 officers for 2025. The total includes 97
22 regular patrol officers. So the total Scranton
23 Police Department is 172 with everyone. The
24 department is the approximately 8 to 10
25 officers short at this time.
63
1 And factors affecting shortage of
2 officers includes retirements, workers' comp,
3 and other injuries or illnesses. So thank you,
4 Mr. King. That is it, Mr. Voldenberg.

12 6-A. READING BY TITLE - FILE OF THE
13 COUNCIL NO. 94, 2025 - AN ORDINANCE - AMENDING
14 CHAPTER 379 OF CITY CODE ("SECONDHAND GOODS AND
15 DEALERS") TO EXPLICITLY AUTHORIZE REQUIRING
16 ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF INFORMATION AND TO

19 MR. SMURL: You've heard reading by

21 MR. MCANDREW: Mr. Chairman, I move
22 that Item 6-A pass reading by title.

7 MR. VOLDENBERG: 6-B. READING BY
8 TITLE - FILE OF THE COUNCIL NO. 95, 2025 - AN
9 ORDINANCE - AUTHORIZING ENTRY-LEVEL EMPLOYMENT
10 IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT WITHOUT COMPETITION
11 UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS AFFECTING PUBLIC
12 SAFETY.
13 MR. SMURL: You've heard reading by
14 title of Item 6-B. What is your pleasure?
15 MR. MCANDREW: Mr. Chairman, I move
16 that Item 6-B pass reading by title.
17 DR. ROTHCHILD: Second.
18 MR. SMURL: On the question?
19 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question, as
20 it was on the Civil Service Commission agenda
21 for September, if we could just reach out to
22 their solicitor and get their opinions on that?
23 With this ordinance, it does appear that the
24 individuals that would be hired would have
25 civil service and Act 120 already established.
74
1 So it doesn't seem to be an issue. But I would
2 love to hear what they have to say.
3 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster.
4 All those in favor --
5 MR. MCANDREW: I have something to
6 say too. So I looked at this last week. I
7 looked at it this week. I think this is a nice
8 tool for lateral moves. And, you know, no
9 offense, but we're not hiring mall cops here
10 and no offense to them.
11 The movie was pretty funny, but, you
12 know, this is after the resident requirements
13 was removed. This gives opportunity to people
14 that don't have to move in the city that maybe
15 want to work for the police department that
16 already have the training needed and
17 experience.
18 This reminds me of saying, hey, I
19 don't think there is anything to see here.
20 This reminds me of saying, hey, I want to go
21 and apply at a different vocational school and
22 as a lateral move. All I got to do under the
23 Pennsylvania Department of Education is bring
24 my cert with me, my clearances; and I'll be
25 vetted out like anybody else.
75
1 But it's not like I'm going to --
2 going trying to get a job and teach welding.
3 That wouldn't make sense. So it's a lateral
4 move with the proper experience, the proper
5 training. I think this is, you know, fiscally
6 responsible alternative instead of, you know,
7 it's definitely less expensive.
8 It makes sense to me. And also, you
9 know, everybody keeps talking about what about
10 our staffing numbers. This is -- I think is
11 also a way to increase them that we need to do.
12 This is another option. I don't see anything
13 wrong with this process.
14 Now that it's, you know, now that it
15 was kind of done, you know, when we had the
16 resident requirement, now it's just a
17 formalized transparent process that's in the
18 form of an ordinance. So I'm definitely
19 supporting this.
20 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. McAndrew.
21 All those in favor signify by saying aye.
22 MR. KING: Aye.
23 MR. SCHUSTER: Aye.
24 DR. ROTHCHILD: Aye.
25 MR. MCANDREW: Aye.
76
1 MR. SMURL: Aye. Opposed? The ayes
2 have it and so moved.

14 CONSIDERATION BY THE COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC
15 WORKS - FOR ADOPTION - RESOLUTION NO. 252,
16 2025 - AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND OTHER
17 APPROPRIATE CITY OFFICIALS TO EXECUTE AND ENTER
18 INTO A CONTRACT WITH TITAN TREE SERVICES INC.
19 TO PERFORM PROFESSIONAL TREE SERVICES FOR THE
20 CITY OF SCRANTON.
21 MR. SMURL: What is the
22 recommendation of the Chairperson for the
23 Committee on Public Works?
24 MR. SCHUSTER: As Chairperson for
25 the Committee on Public Works, I recommend
81
1 final passage of Item 7-E.
2 MR. MCANDREW: Second.
3 MR. SMURL: On the question?
4 MR. SCHUSTER: So on the question,
5 we talked about the definition of emergency
6 services here. It was stated that DPW is going
7 to assess the situation first and they are
8 going to decide whether tree removals are
9 beyond their ability. And at that point, we
10 would go into this company completing the tree
11 companies, correct?
12 MR. SMURL: I believe that would be
13 the right procedure.
14 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. This contract
15 is only year long correct, Mr. Gilbride?
16 ATTY. GILBRIDE: Yes.
17 MR. SCHUSTER: If it had to be
18 renewed, it has to come back before Council for
19 renewal?
20 ATTY. GILBRIDE: Or they don't have
21 to pass another contract.
22 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. Thank you.
23 MR. MCANDREW: Also on the question,
24 in addition to this, so I talked about this in
25 caucus. I kind of remember some legislation
82
1 late spring, early summer about a program to
2 aid some elderly residents that can't afford to
3 take down a tree in their yard, not the one
4 that the Shade Commission is responsible for,
5 not the one that's on a neighbor's yard, all
6 right.
7 So I just -- I briefly remember it.
8 I want to know if this program would be
9 intertwined with this maybe, you know,
10 utilizing these services or the services of
11 DPW. But could you just find out for me, Mr.
12 Voldenberg, you know, where are we at with that
13 program per se that was introduced and has any
14 residents benefitted from it?
15 And also, what is the actual
16 process? Is there a form on the website that I
17 didn't really take a look at to see if there is
18 but just to see what the process is. It was
19 budgeted. There was money put aside for it.
20 So let's see if it was utilized
21 for -- or if we can get it out there because I
22 always hear, you know, being out there that,
23 you know, there's some residents, they can't
24 afford this, you know, and taking out a big
25 tree in their yard.
83
1 And, you know, the neighbors
2 complain about it because it's, you know, it's,
3 you know, it's growing over another property.
4 I mean, this might be a, you know, a resolve
5 for someone that can't really afford it.
6 I just want to know -- I mean, maybe
7 that was the reason for this legislation. But
8 I just want to know if it was utilized at all
9 this summer.
10 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask tomorrow.
11 MR. MCANDREW: All right. Thank
12 you.
13 MR. SCHUSTER: With that also being
14 said, he said when it comes to private
15 property, a tree would only be cut if the tree
16 wasn't -- tree on private property would only
17 be cut if it's a danger to others other than
18 the property owner, correct?
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: That's correct.
20 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. Can we --
21 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll check further.
22 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. If you could
23 check for me, please. Currently our tree
24 cutter is -- the position has -- the individual
25 has bid out of this position, correct, from
84
1 what we're hearing?
2 MR. SMURL: Yes --
3 MR. SCHUSTER: Can we find out --
4 I've been told that there's possibly two
5 different job descriptions. If we take a look
6 at -- get a copy of those two different job
7 descriptions, see if there's -- if they've been
8 both mutually agreed upon or if there's been
9 some updates that have occurred unilaterally
10 when it comes to the tree cutter position.
11 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
12 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank
13 you.
14 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster.
15 Roll call, please.
16 MS. CARRERA: Mr. King.
17 MR. KING: Yes.
18 MS. CARRERA: Mr. Schuster.
19 MR. SCHUSTER: Yes.
20 MS. CARRERA: Dr. Rothchild.

20 DR. ROTHCHILD: Second.
21 MR. SMURL: On the question?
22 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question, as I
23 said last week, I'm happy to see these
24 stormwater projects moving forward, obviously
25 much needed in Keyser Valley.
87
1 Again, glad to see them moving
2 forward. An update that I gave last week is,
3 invitations to bid went out on September 4th
4 for two different projects, one was the
5 Fawnwood Phase One stormwater project. That
6 bid closes on 9/23.
7 And the second project that was --
8 went out as an invitation to bid was stormwater
9 conveyance system on Dewy and Merrifield Ave.
10 So those are two projects that are going to
11 start moving forward as bids are coming in for
