25 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Yeah, I would
4
1 just like to wish all of our graduates for the
2 Scranton School District from West and Scranton
3 High School, congratulations on graduating.
4 And good luck with your future endeavors.
5 As a school director, it was one of
6 my favorite things to do was to attend these
7 graduations. So I hope they all have a great,
8 fun night and a safe night and congratulations,
9 and good luck in your future.
10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Any other
11 announcements?
12 MR. FLYNN: Yes, I have a few. So
13 the Plot Neighborhood Association will be
14 hosting an ice cream social fundraiser on June
15 14th at the Post Events and Ice Cream, 12 p.m.
16 till 8 p.m.
17 There will be basket raffles, family
18 fun, face painting, balloon artists, live
19 music. Ten percent of all ice cream sales will
20 benefit the Plot Neighborhood Association. I
21 received this from DPW that the City of
22 Scranton, the Department of Public Works will
23 be closed in observance of Juneteenth on June
24 19th. And recycling will be one day behind
25 just for Friday. So that's -- that's what I
5
1 have. Thank you.
2 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
3 I have an announcement. And it is that the
4 Underground Miners Group is going to be
5 presenting a vintage mine lamp demonstration at
6 the Brooks Mine. And that's going to be this
7 Saturday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. There's no
8 admission fee, but donations are appreciated.
9 MR. VOLDENBERG: FOURTH ORDER.
10 CITIZEN PARTICIPATION.
11 MR. SCHUSTER: Our first speaker
12 tonight is Joan Hodowanitz.
13 MS. HODOWANITZ: Joan Hodowanitz,
14 Scranton. Item 5-H, adding the
15 responsibilities of the ARPA Project Manager to
16 existing staff. I found this a little
17 surprising.
18 My first question is, who was the
19 ARPA Project Manager that resigned on May 20?
20 MR. SCHUSTER: There was actually
21 two managers that have since resigned as
22 those --
23 MS. HODOWANITZ: Both?
24 MR. SCHUSTER: I believe it's -- I
25 believe it is two. And those positions would
6
1 be ending with the ARPA funds. I was just told
2 that they took new positions.
3 MS. HODOWANITZ: Okay, so according
4 to the backup, their duties will be delegated
5 to four other staff members, GIS, assistant
6 city planner, special assistant right to know
7 officer, and the engineering project officer.
8 But I'm basically curious because I
9 didn't -- other than a reference to 1.2 million
10 dollars for support staff under the
11 administrative category, it doesn't really
12 spell out the significant cost savings that
13 this legislation claims will happen.
14 I mean, I thought ARPA would die a
15 decent death on December 31st of this year. So
16 do we need project managers after the end of
17 this year? How much money are these four
18 staffers going to make in addition to their --
19 their base salary?
20 Basically, I would like you to show
21 me the numbers, how this all works out. I
22 suspect that we're talking about ARPA funds.
23 So it's not coming out of the general budget.
24 But I'd like to see how this is all going to
25 terminate once ARPA ends at the end of the year
7
1 or do we require the staffers in 2027 and
2 beyond?
3 I'm not quite sure. It doesn't go
4 into that kind of detail. And the other item
5 of legislation, 5-F, this is the request for a
6 grant for $100,000 for the city's Emergency
7 Operations and Training Center, which seems to
8 be a very good idea.
9 But I have two basic questions.
10 What in the world are we doing with the
11 Serrenti Center? Originally when that project
12 began, it was to be an emergency operation
13 center, a training facility, a storage
14 facility.
15 So now we're working with the CTC on
16 another building, I would imagine. I'm not
17 quite sure, you know, $100,000 to support
18 construction. And then in the backup it talks
19 about how we will be supporting other
20 municipalities within the county in terms of
21 emergency operations and training.
22 And I'm wondering, do we get any
23 kind of revenue from that support or do those
24 municipalities simply pay us back by services
25 in kind? In other words, if we need their
8
1 support, they also support us. But there's
2 this trailer that will support the entire
3 county.
4 I would also like to see the numbers
5 on this legislation how this all works out.
6 And again, what is the status of the Serrenti
7 Center and how does it fit into this
8 legislation? So if you would address that in
9 Fifth Order. Thank you.
10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
11 And, Frank, can we send those questions over?
12 MR. VOLDENBERG: I made note of
13 them. I will.
14 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
15 Some of the financial questions in regard to
16 the ARPA positions, I do have on the question
17 when we -- when we get there. Our next speaker
18 is Mike Mancini.
19 MR. MANCINI: Thank you, Council
20 President Schuster. Good evening, Council, and
21 the good people of Scranton. Tonight, through
22 my eyes, memories in Scranton. I'm the oldest
23 of three boys raised by a single mother. We
24 moved to Scranton in October of 1975.
25 One of my first and most fond
9
1 memories with Scranton was July 4th, 1976.
2 Gene Peters was Mayor. That evening we enjoyed
3 our first time sharing fireworks with many
4 other families at Nay Aug Park.
5 The pools -- they were always full
6 of kids, families, and fun. The bumper cars
7 and roller coaster were always a thrill. To a
8 young self, the zoo was amazing. I recall the
9 first time I was introduced to the West
10 Scranton Boys Club. I was six.
11 My neighbor who brought me as a
12 guest was eight. He showed me around. The
13 first floor had two game rooms, a TV room and a
14 woodwork shop. My friend brought me upstairs
15 to the second floor.
16 And for the first time, I witnessed
17 West Side Tough. I was in the gym for less
18 than a minute while older kids were playing
19 dodgeball. I saw one kid take a ball to the
20 head. He got right back up. He told the other
21 kid that he got lucky, looked like two Irish
22 lads.
23 Tough was just the beginning. The
24 wrestling room had mats on everything except
25 the ceiling. You know, the saying don't try
10
1 this at home, we did it in that room. My mom
2 had three active boys at a young age, Sloan
3 baseball, Pack 50 at St. Ann's, West Side Jets,
4 church at St. Ann's where I became an altar boy
5 and Holy Cross.
6 She was also a member of the PTA,
7 never forgot the all-night skates at Skateaway,
8 blisters on the bottom of both of my feet. She
9 worked two jobs but always found the time in a
10 way. My mom made me strong and caring. But
11 other fathers helped to mold me.
12 I understood at a young age the
13 importance of being grateful and the need to
14 give back. I coached basketball, baseball, and
15 football over the years. My mom was amazing.
16 But she was also -- there was also people
17 around me that created lasting memories.
18 Scranton is like no other because of
19 its core, goodness within its borders. My
20 heart will always be full. This is home. Some
21 things remain the same, but most have changed
22 as we age. Those who truly care try to make
23 our city a better and safer place.
24 Scranton has daily and future
25 challenges. The Mayor, Business Administrator,
11
1 and the city lame duck Council member cannot
2 share forever Scranton memories growing up.
3 There was nothing like it, not refundable
4 because it could never be traded.
5 Some current challenges facing our
6 good people include homeless population, which
7 include women, children, and veterans, failing
8 infrastructure, coddling the utilities while
9 providing excuses and politics in the police
10 department.
11 They disbanded the drug task force
12 when we needed it the most. Twelve-year-old
13 Mike Mancini could remember sitting alone
14 looking at the stars on St. Ann's Monastery
15 grounds wondering what kind of father I would
16 be.
17 I'll always be proud to say that I'm
18 a father to a United States Marine. Like
19 myself, Christian was raised to look for the
20 good in people. He will always be forever 26
21 and a day. He took what he believed to be a
22 real pill while in real need. He was laid to
23 rest six years ago yesterday.
24 I am forever lost without him. What
25 type of father would I be if I chose to do
12
1 nothing in a city where hit and runs are
2 investigated more so than the opioid-related
3 deaths. Things need to change. Council or
4 Mayor, whichever comes first, the line is
5 behind me and the good people of Scranton
6 because Mancini won't miss. Good evening,
7 Council, and to our beautiful city.
8 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Lenny
9 Srebro is next.
10 MR. SREBRO: Lenny Srebro, Keyser
11 Valley. Before I get started, what is the
12 rules for parking? Do you have to pay after --
13 I understand they were bouncing it around 5:00
14 you don't have to pay. Then it went to six or
15 5:30. Can you tell me what the right one is?
16 MR. SCHUSTER: At this point, it's
17 until 7 p.m.
18 MR. SREBRO: Seven, okay. All
19 right. I brought my notes. But I'm gonna wing
20 it tonight. I have good news. You know, you
21 got the pod moved. That's credit where credit
22 is needed, you know. It might not seem like a
23 lot to other people, but me and the wife
24 sitting on the deck, you know, having some
25 dinner and whatever and looking straight at
13
1 that pod right in front of us for a year and a
2 half, just, you know, we put up with it, we put
3 up with it, we talked to the owners, you know,
4 and nothing ever got done.
5 But thank you, really. I mean it.
6 I know -- everybody who was involved in getting
7 it moved, thanks. What I -- what I found out
8 with this pod thing, you know, I'm sure you
9 remember I've been here fighting about the
10 flood problem in my neighborhood.
11 What I found out coming to Council,
12 you know, when you put a question to you guys,
13 you know, you can't just fix it immediately.
14 So the person taking up that problem needs to
15 do their research too, you know, not just
16 leaving it up to you guys to waive your magic
17 wand and fix everything, you know?
18 It really helps, like, what I had to
19 do to research it. Now, last year they did
20 improve the flood protection in my neighborhood
21 there. They did a lot of work during the
22 summer and into the fall. And it certainly
23 looks like it's really going to be all right,
24 you know.
25 But we haven't had a really bad
14
1 storm since they finished the project. But
2 they put in new pipes going to the pump house,
3 new culverts, you know, and it just looks like
4 they did a good job. So we'll see, you know,
5 not hoping for another flood, but, you know,
6 when something comes sooner or later, we'll
7 see.
8 But that's credit that needs credit
9 due to, you know, thanks for helping with the
10 flood protection. That's all I got. Thanks.
11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. And, Mr.
12 Srebro, good news. Last week in Seventh Order
13 we passed another Keyser Valley contract for
14 stormwater, which I believe is more towards
15 your area --
16 MR. SREBRO: Okay.
17 MR. SCHUSTER: -- in Keyser Valley.
18 So that was passed in Seventh Order last week.
19 MR. SREBRO: Wonderful. Thanks
20 again.
21 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Our next
22 speaker is Les Spindler.
23 MR. SPINDLER: Good evening,
24 Council, Les Spindler, city resident and
25 homeowner. I think everybody remembers Norma
15
1 Jeffries. She used to come here all the time.
2 About two weeks ago, she messaged me on
3 Facebook. She watches our meetings on her
4 phone or whatever, I don't know. And she heard
5 me talk about Bob Bolus that he suffered a
6 stroke.
7 So she was wondering how he was
8 doing. So I hope you're watching tonight,
9 Norma. I have news. He -- his speech was
10 affected. But he's not too bad. And he's
11 even driving even though I'm told he's not
12 supposed to. But that's Bob, but he's doing
13 okay, I guess, for -- he's like 82, 83 years
14 old.
15 And I hear he might be here soon.
16 So that's the update on him. The one way on
17 Euclid Avenue, I came here last week and asked
18 for more signs. Last weekend I'm going up, and
19 I just look off to the left. There's one of
20 those big things that they put signs on.
21 And I see there's a sign that says
22 "This road is permanently a one way, not your
23 way." It was printed on a piece of cardboard.
24 I can't make this stuff up. Unbelievable. I
25 hope -- I hope it didn't break PennDOT's
16
1 budget, cardboard. Unbelievable.
2 Yesterday I went by and it was an
3 improvement. Somebody sprayed an orange border
4 around the sign, make it more noticeable. I
5 guess it was the great engineers that told the
6 Mayor it was a good idea to make that one way,
7 putting up a cardboard sign. Unbelievable.
8 You can't make this stuff up.
9 Pave cuts again, I'm going to say it
10 till it's fixed, Clearview Avenue -- Clearview
11 Street and Main Avenue. I go by there almost
12 every day. You have to slow down almost like
13 five miles an hour or you're get bounced all
14 over the place.
15 Again, our pave cut inspectors are
16 not doing their job. And even on the 100 block
17 of South Main, which I brought up a lot of
18 times, that's still not right. Green Ridge
19 Street Bridge, another one of my pet peeves. I
20 go by there almost every day again.
21 To me, it looks like it's almost
22 ready to open up -- the whole -- the bridge is
23 open. The whole bridge isn't open yet. Last
24 week they had a big piece of heavy equipment
25 digging up the Family Dollar parking lot.
17
1 Nothing done on the bridge.
2 It's -- it's unbelievable how
3 they're dragging their feet. And I had to stop
4 at Family Dollar today on Green Ridge Street.
5 And I asked them about that. They said, we're
6 told it might not be done till November. I
7 said, what? I said, it could have been done by
8 now if they weren't dragging their feet.
9 And they're losing a lot of
10 business. The manager told me they're losing
11 business. I asked months ago. You should get
12 PennDOT in here and ask them why this thing
13 isn't done already. Like I said, I'm not an
14 engineer, but just to look at it, like, the
15 bridge is open because they move cones from
16 side to side.
17 So every lane has been open at one
18 time or another. But yesterday and today they
19 had a big piece of machinery hanging over the
20 side with guys under the bridge. What are they
21 doing under the bridge? Wasn't it done right
22 that they're fixing something or whatever?
23 Today they were putting up, like,
24 traffic light poles and walk -- don't walk
25 signs. All this stuff could have been done
18
1 after the bridge is open. If this is dragged
2 out till November, there's something wrong.
3 There's no way it should take to November to
4 open that bridge up fully.
5 ATVs again, I brought it up last
6 week How Shamokin confiscates all their --
7 They have so many that they don't know what to
8 do. We have a lot more resources in our city
9 than a little town like Shamokin does. Why
10 can't we stop these ATVs? They're constantly
11 going by my house.
12 They go over Rebecca, up Dorothy
13 Street, back to the tracks at the end of
14 Dorothy Street, doing wheelies up and down near
15 my house. Something's got to be done. I mean,
16 it's so dangerous. Like I said, if Shamokin
17 can do it, why can't we do it?
18 The next thing, why is the kratom
19 legislation still in Eighth Order? You people
20 say you don't want it to drag out. It's
21 dragged out already. What's the holdup? You
22 can answer when I walk away. My time is up.
23 Thank you.
24 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next is
25 Ron Ellman.
19
1 MR. ELLMAN: Yeah, Council --
2 Council, let's see. Well, I know the past five
3 years I've attended at least 100 Councils and
4 not once have I seen my beloved Mayor attend
5 one, a Council meeting.
6 I don't know if it's ever occurred
7 to anybody, but we people that come to these
8 council meetings in the five minutes or so, a
9 lot of us have contributed more to each meeting
10 than this Mayor has since she entered office.
11 And now it seems like every turn you -- every
12 street you go down, there's some kind of
13 project on it.
14 It seems like she assumes filling
15 1,000 potholes with cold patch will overshadow
16 five years of neglect and mismanagement that
17 caused all these potholes and street repairs in
18 front of Grippo's shop, I think that's
19 Clearview Street.
20 There is a monstrous place that's
21 been there for, I think, this whole week. You
22 know where I mean? There's just no reason for
23 something like that to be on such a busy
24 street. Of course, this is crooked Scranton.
25 I guess the money's needed downtown for tax
20
1 cheats and all their tax exempt bars and
2 restaurants and rentals.
3 And I had to see the Memorial Day
4 picture of Welby. This man was elected to
5 represent the people, and it seems like he
6 wanted to represent some anti-American bleeding
7 heart leftist organizations that completely
8 anti-ICE, anti -- just anti everything good.
9 And just instead of law and order
10 and what's good and just, he's -- he's just
11 overshadowed his position with offering
12 protection and sanctuary with these people to
13 this Biden's army of criminal illegals.
14 And in last Thursday's paper was a
15 real good article by Brother Bill and others
16 about the data centers. They must be stopped.
17 And anyone that read this article can see
18 there's a dire future with these data centers.
19 I don't know why they don't go to
20 Mexico or Honduras or someplace where there's
21 jungles and water. They -- they are negative
22 from beginning to end. And if -- I think it
23 was Friday's paper, I noticed 30 lockers at
24 auction -- the storage lockers.
25 Now why -- why 30 -- how did 30
21
1 people that had to suddenly put their
2 possessions away like that lose them? It just
3 doesn't make sense what happened. It couldn't
4 be foreclosures or something. It's very
5 heartbreaking to me.
6 And one other thing before I shut up
7 and sit down, I can't -- it must have been six,
8 eight years ago I stood right here and said you
9 can get free gun locks. There's no reason why
10 some city code at least couldn't require free
11 gun locks on guns.
12 They -- if just one instance could
13 have been averted by it. But I'm pro gun, you
14 know, I'm not anti-gun. My son had one of
15 those machine guns we used to shoot. I think
16 it was like 60 cents a shell. And in seconds
17 it'd be gone.
18 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you, Mr.
19 Ellman.
20 MR. ELLMAN: But I wish you'd
21 consider some kind of city code to require gun
22 locks on -- and have some enforcement. Thank
23 you.
24 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Would
25 anyone else like to address council?
22
1 MS. KOLOSKI: Doris Koloski,
2 Scranton resident. First of all, I'd like to
3 say how many people have walked up to me in
4 grocery stores and at the park and agreed with
5 what I said about why -- that Sam should have
6 been put on that board at the park, just food
7 for thought.
8 I want to tell you that Jeep is
9 still there -- the one that you guys were --
10 that called upon. But it's still there on
11 Mulberry Street with the orange tag on it.
12 Okay, I want people to know that we
13 have Human Relations Commission in the City of
14 Scranton that people if they feel that they've
15 been discriminated against in any kind of
16 housing for any reason, race, gender, they can
17 file a complaint.
18 They go to the
19 Scrantonpennsylvania.gov. You would click on
20 your government, pick boards and commissions
21 and authorities, click commissions, scroll down
22 and click on Human Relation Commission, click
23 on Human Relation complaint form and the
24 authorization form or by personally visiting
25 the Law Department at the City Hall if you
23
1 don't have any access to a computer or you're
2 technology challenged.

22 I would like to know if you received
23 any kind of answer on 421 Colfax. I have heard
24 the Mayor's office had a meeting, but I didn't
25 hear anything about it.
24
1 MR. SCHUSTER: The only thing
2 official that we got back was the blight
3 remediation team has been informed.
4 MS. KOLOSKI: Okay. And somebody
5 did say something about DPW was going to clean
6 it up, but so far they haven't. Nobody cut the
7 grass or anything so far. And thank you for
8 your time.
9 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Anyone
10 else like to address Council?
11 MR. COYNE: Good evening, Council,
12 Tom Coyne, Minooka. Last week Dr. Rothchild
13 said she provided as much detail as she could
14 on the Homeless Task Force.
15 The information she referred to was
16 for two years of meetings. She only dealt with
17 one code blue issue that was in winter. And
18 they coordinated in getting the Code Blue
19 Shelter up and running late.
20 She also mentioned that she would be
21 happy to have another Council member on the
22 task force, but followed up with I don't know,
23 and you would have to get the Mayor's blessing.
24 So was a spot approved or was it a spur of the
25 moment suggestion adding someone without the
25
1 authority to make a spot that just sounded good
2 on a whim.
3 As Dr. Rothchild mentioned, it has
4 been said prior the Mayor runs the Homeless
5 Task Force. As such, it was stated the
6 decision on running the shelter came out of
7 those meetings. Is this then not the Mayor
8 participating in a decision-making meeting?
9 And if so, why is it not open to the
10 public or at least have minutes available?
11 Jumping to another comment from Council, is
12 this group is specifically getting HUD funding,
13 getting donations from organizations and
14 individuals who may have a direct ethical
15 conflict.
16 And the city itself is supplementing
17 it using the city's HUD funding. So if this is
18 a decision-making body, it was funded by
19 taxpayer dollars run by the Mayor and has
20 secret decision-making meetings, how do you not
21 disclose organizations and individual
22 donations?
23 How do you validate the concept of a
24 secret nonpublic group, taxpayer funded, and
25 from those directly benefiting with no
26
1 disclosures of public funds to be a
2 decision-making task force that bars the public
3 from the very group the public is paying for.
4 Dr. Rothchild is a member and could
5 have taken notes to present each meeting over
6 the past two years but never has. More
7 important, if the Mayor is running this, why
8 are we not getting answers from her?
9 Moving on to 3100 Cedar Avenue, we
10 have a suggestion from the Planning Commission
11 that Council can reject and change. I would
12 ask that they do. Why was the entrance and
13 exits put on Cedar Avenue?
14 The alleyway could have been used
15 and expanded as it's a dead end one block, has
16 no traffic and has no cars parking on it. I
17 understand it's late for this, but the city who
18 fixates on a single off-street parking spot, I
19 do not see why this was not addressed as a best
20 solution.
21 We have Cedar Avenue and Crane
22 Street, both exiting to a major road, Davis
23 Street and Birney Avenue. And one on Cedar
24 Avenue we need immediate one-way resolution.
25 On Crane, the issue is situational based and
27
1 does not require a change, same road, same
2 traffic, same exits to a major road, but one
3 has to change now, and one because it's
4 conditional -- and they both are, has no need
5 for a change.
6 The 3100 block is set to go one way.
7 But that wasn't the primary suggestion. Number
8 one on the report was to eliminate parking on
9 the east side as it also clears line of sight
10 from the entrance and exit of the lots, leaving
11 two way traffic.
12 In quote, the need is due to heavy
13 use during parish events is conditional and a
14 few hours a week. On Crane Street, the same as
15 Cedar Avenue it reviews and says because the
16 issue is only during masses and other church
17 events and situational -- for specific times
18 and events leaving it as it -- as it is --
19 would be likely the best alternative and
20 revisit it after construction is complete.
21 Two streets, both major highway-born
22 impacts at a limited time for masses are
23 evaluated 100 percent opposite in this report.
24 Add to that the one way does not clear the
25 driveway side parking on the 3100 block of
28
1 Cedar Avenue, which goes directly against the
2 sight distance requirements.
3 I would ask Council and its
4 authority amend the Commission's decision and
5 change the requirement to suggestion one as
6 provided leaving it two ways and eliminating
7 the parking on the east side, expand the travel
8 lanes and the sight distances as is reasonable
9 by the study.
10 I defer to Mr. Schuster's judgment
11 on West Mountain water issues because he knows
12 the neighborhood well. I know this
13 neighborhood as I was born and lived in it well
14 over 40 years. My view was not a few days
15 snapshot, but one of 40 years in all weather
16 situations.
17 It's my neighborhood. And I know
18 the neighborhood. And I'm less prone to push
19 more cars into a zone with kids in the area for
20 a 12-unit apartment building. That is not
21 being a good neighbor. Thank you.
22 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Would
23 anyone else like to address Council?
24 MR. LITTLE: Good evening, Council,
25 Rik Little. Everything's really getting crazy
29
1 on the local level, on the world level. These
2 newspaper things I'm handing out is from last
3 Saturday's paper.
4 There's all these articles about the
5 data centers. And this -- this is one of the
6 things that's really global coming out. And I
7 don't know. What I'd like to say -- keep my
8 thoughts together here. Anyway, there's --
9 there's a hearing. There's a hearing this
10 Thursday at 10 o'clock in courtroom number
11 three before Judge Moyle because these people
12 that put in the data centers, you don't know
13 who they are.
14 They got good lawyers. And they'll
15 just keep going and going and going. And it's
16 as I said before, it scares me about the people
17 that are fixing all the streets around
18 Scranton, Kriger. I wonder about that. And I
19 wonder about the Mayor going for higher office.
20 And it's all important and I
21 would -- what has to happen to save Scranton
22 and save the state is people come together,
23 people come together, and people show up. And
24 the one place people never show up, they just
25 sit -- sit back and wait is the courts.
30
1 And I've done a lot of court
2 watching over the last 25 years. And it was
3 really hard to start in Lackawanna County. I
4 did it in family court for 15 years in
5 Brooklyn. But, you know, on a technicality,
6 you know, you don't have standing. You didn't
7 file the papers right. Oh, it was a typo.
8 Resubmit it, and it keeps going on and on.
9 And I don't even -- if anybody can
10 tell me if a pro se litigant has ever won in
11 the Court of Common Pleas, please tell me
12 because the people on the government level here
13 are using these same court tactics like -- like
14 code enforcement.
15 I asked, you know, what inspections
16 have you done at Scranton Housing Authority.
17 And I get the answer, well, you have to -- you
18 can file a right to know. I know I can file a
19 right to know. But that's what everybody does
20 in this city.
21 It's like you have to file. You
22 have to go to this. We got 500 people in
23 the -- in all the 501C3's, you know, looking
24 for housing, looking for this and that.
25 But the data centers are crucial.
31
1 Pennsylvania has the highest electric bills
2 around. And there's water problems too. And
3 there's noise problems. And this article, you
4 know, it talks about some lawyer for Scranton
5 Materials is arguing against the citizen, you
6 know, oh, she lives in Ransom Township, you
7 know, so she doesn't have standing.
8 These data centers will affect the
9 area 100 miles away from everywhere right on
10 the border, Archibald. And if you -- you know,
11 Lockheed owns a lot. These things have been
12 planned for years and years. And I'd like to
13 talk about the governor, you know, all the
14 stuff you read in the paper about people coming
15 out and saying, you know, I'm against it, you
16 know.
17 It's like the candy -- and the
18 voting. I mean, look at California -- no, look
19 at Pottsville. They found 100 -- close to
20 100,000 votes in a storage locker of a main guy
21 of Governor Shapiro. You never hear anything
22 about this. The elections are gone. The
23 mail-in is a problem.
24 I hope people will take the time to
25 go Thursday, 6/11, 226 go to the Court of
32
1 Common Pleas and watch the court. I think the
2 court needs watching. I think people have to
3 stand up on every level, local, county, state,
4 federal. Thank you.
5 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Would
6 anyone else like to address Council?
7 MR. VOLDENBERG: FIFTH ORDER. 5-A.
8 MOTIONS.
9 MR. SCHUSTER: Mr. Sean McAndrew, do
10 you have any motions or comments tonight?
11 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Yeah, I have a
12 few. First, some requests from residents, 123
13 Spring Street. I guess -- I spoke with the
14 resident there. I guess their sidewalks were
15 ripped up years ago when the -- after the
16 utility companies did some work there.
17 They were never replaced. So can we
18 take a look at that and see if they should have
19 been replaced? Also, it's a busy street. If
20 there's signage we can put for, like, children
21 at play or anything like that.
22 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of
23 it.
24 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Second request
25 from the resident is the alley by Martin Place.
33
1 During the week, I guess, a truck parks and
2 blocks part of the alley. So can we maybe have
3 somebody take a drive over there, see if that's
4 the case, and also if there's maybe, like, a no
5 parking sign that can go there?
6 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll give that to
7 SPD.
8 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay. Recently
9 myself and Councilman Mark McAndrew met with
10 the city regarding the ambulance service. You
11 know, there has been a study that was done.
12 But they don't really right now have any path
13 forward. There's no plans, which is, you know,
14 not the not the best news to hear after you
15 spend a lot of money on a plan.
16 So I've been asking -- I asked
17 multiple questions. Should we look -- look for
18 something in the meantime? What's -- what's
19 the long-term plan? What is, you know, what
20 are some things we can do in the, you know, in
21 the meantime to make sure we have the best
22 service and protection for our -- for our
23 neighbors and our residents?
24 And there's really no -- there was
25 no answer. So I think they did ask what
34
1 Council's appetite was. And I'll never speak
2 for anybody but myself. And my -- my
3 suggestion is let's just do something better,
4 you know, let's actually come up with a plan
5 and be involved in the discussions, but haven't
6 heard anything since.
7 So I think it's time that we take it
8 upon ourselves to kind of look at some avenues,
9 and see what we can do to make sure we have the
10 best services for our residents. So I know PA
11 Ambulance is pretty much the main and the only
12 game in town right now.
13 I know they have been here
14 previously in front of other Councils. And
15 there were discussions in the past from
16 Councilman King and other Council members to
17 hear them out and maybe make some decisions and
18 maybe see if there's something we can do
19 together even temporarily.
20 So, Frank, would you be able to
21 contact them to see if they would be able to
22 come into a caucus again because we do have two
23 new Council members, myself and Councilman
24 Flynn? We haven't, you know, met with them,
25 you know, in a caucus. So can we see if they
35
1 maybe, in the next week or two, could come in?
2 MR. VOLDENBERG: Yeah, I have their
3 contact information. I'll reach out in the
4 morning.
5 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay. And
6 please alert the city -- the administration,
7 let them know that we're doing this because
8 they don't -- it's only fair because we did
9 have discussions with them but -- so make sure
10 they're aware that we are going down this path
11 to have them into caucus in case they have any
12 questions that they want to ask too.
13 I know there's -- they have all
14 these questions and concerns, but they won't
15 put it in writing. So let's see what they say.
16 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll let them know.
17 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay. Next,
18 there is a new position at Nay Aug for Nay Aug
19 Parks and Rec's manager. Looking at the job
20 descriptions, it seems some of it conflicts
21 with what the SMRA Board does. I used to be on
22 the SMRA Board, so I know the ins and outs of
23 that pretty well.
24 So -- and I understand that there's
25 interviews that just started. Now my
36
1 understanding is there's already an individual
2 who's been told that they're going to get the
3 job. I hope that's not the case. I hope we're
4 going through the process the correct way.
5 But before we even finish this
6 process and hire somebody, I think there needs
7 to be more discussion based on the role of this
8 and if it's even needed. You know, it's going
9 to be managing two park -- from my
10 understanding, it's going to be park workers
11 they'll be managing and then during the season,
12 the lifeguards.
13 So is this position just going to be
14 seasonal when there's lifeguards? Because
15 there's no way we need one person just to
16 manage two people. It's been working for the
17 last 30 years, 20 years. I don't know why all
18 of a sudden we need to make some changes and,
19 you know, spend more money on a position that I
20 do not think is needed.
21 That 50-some -- I think it's 50-some
22 thousand dollars can go to a lot of other
23 things. But my main concern is it's taking
24 away the responsibilities for the -- what the
25 SMRA Board actually does. So we have an
37
1 authority -- it's actually an authority.
2 So we have an authority there to
3 manage Nay Aug Park. So I think there is some
4 maybe a back and forth between the part -- the
5 board and the city. And I think we need to
6 figure out the best path forward. And I don't
7 think this position is it.
8 I think the Board does a great job.
9 If you take a ride up to Nay Aug and between
10 the Board and the volunteers, it's a beautiful
11 place. I don't know why we would need somebody
12 to oversee it. It's already being done very,
13 very well.
14 So, Frank, if you can ask the city
15 administration if they can sit down with myself
16 and we can reach out to maybe the President or
17 Vice President of the SMRA Board to see if we
18 can have a discussion to see who's responsible
19 for what and what the path is going forward to
20 make sure we're doing this right.
21 And again, I don't think we need
22 this position. So before we hire anything,
23 let's make sure we iron this all out because in
24 the response we got regarding just scheduling
25 the pickleball league, which I'm not against
38
1 the league. I think there should be a league
2 up there. I think that's great.
3 But my understanding talking to the
4 Board members that there's -- the city did that
5 without them knowing, which is their job to do
6 to schedule the events up there. There -- it
7 isn't all -- it's also a for-profit business,
8 which is not paying a fee at all. And it's for
9 an adult league.
10 And they're taking more courts up
11 than they're supposed to. So, again, I'm for
12 the league. If, you know, there's six courts
13 and they want to use four during that time
14 period, but if you're gonna be making a profit
15 off it and it's an adult league, it should be,
16 you know, there should be a fee or something
17 going back to the -- back to the park just like
18 anybody else would if they rented anything else
19 in the park.
20 So let's see if we could have a
21 sit-down with them before this goes any
22 further. And we could iron some things out,
23 and I could report back to the fellow Council
24 but also to the residents.
25 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll set that up.
39
1 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Perfect. So
2 regarding the parks and the cameras, myself,
3 other Council members definitely want cameras
4 placed in Pretzel Park like it was promised,
5 but also all the parks.
6 So the response we got was SPD has
7 been working closely with IT to build out the
8 camera systems for the city parks. Chief
9 Carroll recognizes that this is not moving as
10 quickly as many would like. But it is
11 important to understand that this is not a
12 standalone project.
13 The park cameras operate within the
14 same network as all the other public safety
15 cameras across the city. Because they coexist
16 in a single system, SPD must constantly
17 evaluate and prioritize procurement,
18 installation, repair, maintenance, and
19 replacement and based on the overall public
20 safety needs.
21 In doing so, SPD must also balance
22 location, timing, budget, staffing, and
23 factors, including weather and completing
24 operational demands. Many of these priorities
25 are determined by the intelligence and
40
1 continuous public safety assessments.
2 Although managing the full public
3 safety camera system is complex and demanding,
4 SPD has the expertise, structure, and
5 commitment necessary to keep the system
6 reliable and aligned with operation priorities
7 and the community's expectations.
8 Pretzel Park has been previously and
9 continue to be included in the city's work plan
10 as we continue to work through the open
11 requirements -- or open requests across the
12 city. We will communicate the installation
13 date when it is available. So that was a lot.
14 But it's no -- no -- no more answer than we had
15 before.
16 When are these cameras going up? If
17 it's this hard to put up a few cameras in a
18 park, I can only imagine how hard it's going to
19 be to do a whole live crime center next door at
20 Fidelity when -- when the purchase goes through
21 or when the -- when the building is finally
22 available for us to get in.
23 So if they can't handle this, how
24 are they're going to be able to handle that.
25 And if it's going to take this long just for
41
1 cameras in the park, I can only imagine how
2 long that's going to take. So can we please
3 circle back and say can we please have an
4 expected date of when these will be installed
5 in Pretzel Park, but then after that, all the
6 other parks that don't have them currently. We
7 need -- we need an answer.
8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
9 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right.
10 Thank you. And then so regarding the PEL
11 request, PEL was supposed to have a five year
12 forecast for us by -- beginning of June,
13 last -- June 1st on what's the budget going to
14 look like in the next five years, which is a
15 great tool for us in the city to plan our
16 future budgets.
17 The little information I got was
18 that obviously our expenditures or our expenses
19 are outweighing our revenue. So we're going to
20 have to figure out ways to plug those holes.
21 Also, I keep saying this, the LST tax shortfall
22 that we have right now if it's not fixed, will
23 be millions of dollars.
24 So can we please ask them if they
25 have an answer? The city should have checked
42
1 on the timeline and got the answer for us
2 before today, not saying that they're just
3 going to check. They had these questions for,
4 you know, a few days. I don't know why they
5 just didn't call PEL up and ask them the
6 question.
7 So can we send the city another
8 question -- respond back and say, you know,
9 it's been a week, can we please have -- please
10 have an answer. But also, PEL is not a city
11 employee. I know when we have to request
12 questions from other departments, we have to go
13 through all these hoops and go through Eileen,
14 and we can't ask ourselves, which I disagree
15 with.
16 We all should be working together.
17 But since PEL is a separate entity, can we
18 also -- there's a contact, Frank, I know who
19 goes to the finance meetings. Can you reach
20 out directly to her to see if we can get a
21 timeline?
22 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr.
23 McAndrew.
24 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: -- we'll go both
25 avenues and see what -- what answers we get who
43
1 gets us -- at least -- least something. And
2 then finally, regarding the Unsheltered Task
3 Force, I know we talked about possibly -- I
4 think I mentioned about seeing if they can come
5 in for a caucus.
6 Can we reach out to the task force
7 to see if they want to send a few
8 representatives from the task force because I
9 know there's 50 people. I know we can't have
10 all 50 people here, but maybe like four or five
11 of them if they want to pick a -- pick a few
12 and see if they would come to a caucus and
13 answer our questions and the residents'
14 questions.
15 It's been a topic since I've been on
16 the -- on the -- on Council. We're really not
17 getting many answers. So let's ask them
18 directly.
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll do that.
20 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right.
21 That's all I have thanks.
22 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Yeah,
23 when we met back with Matt Domines, I believe
24 probably in March, so it's going over two
25 months ago. They let us know that it'd be four
44
1 to six weeks for that PEL -- for the PEL
2 projection.
3 So I'm really curious to see what
4 that states. With Mr. McAndrew's questions,
5 can we also ask for the full job description
6 for that Parks Manager for Nay Aug Park?
7 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
8 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
9 Mr. Pat Flynn, do you have any motions or
10 comments?
11 MR. FLYNN: Yes, I do. Thank you.
12 I'll start by some responses that I received. I
13 also had asked the same question about the
14 cameras and the parks. And, you know, that
15 there was a lot in it -- in this response.
16 But my thought on it is, you know, a
17 lot of these operational systems that we've put
18 forward in the city have been to make
19 everything coexist in one single system to make
20 the process moving forward more seamless when
21 we have to add to it, right?
22 So it's happened with Open Gov and
23 all these other things to make it more -- a
24 more seamless one size fits all process. So
25 then when you add more things to it, it makes
45
1 it easier in the long run. So I'm not sure why
2 that is not the case with the cameras that they
3 coexist in the single system. Why is it -- why
4 does that not become easier for the police
5 department when needed to add another one
6 online to make it that more -- more seamless,
7 and not -- not more hoops to jump through,
8 which I feel like is happening, happening here.
9 So that's just -- that's more
10 thought than anything. And I really hope to
11 see the cameras installed in all the parks very
12 soon. So -- so a few other ones, I had talked
13 last week about the Castle House on Richmond
14 Street and how the front of the house was well
15 maintained, the grass was cut and whatnot.
16 But on the backside it's very
17 intense overgrowth. It looks like a failing
18 and collapsing deck back there. And the
19 administration had said that they had been in
20 touch with the property owner on maintaining
21 that property as they're trying to sell it to
22 someone interested in bringing it back to it --
23 to its glory, really.
24 And so the response I got was code
25 enforcement has been notified. So that's great
46
1 on the -- on the overgrowth and all that. But
2 I also asked for the city engineer to be able
3 to go out, take a look as they had previously
4 and that the administration had said last week
5 the city engineer had been out there to see the
6 structure of the house itself.
7 Could we get the city engineer out
8 there to look at that back deck and see if it's
9 beyond repair and if so, can be -- can be taken
10 down. But the overgrowth is happening all over
11 the deck as well. I'd really like that to be
12 done sooner rather than later as it's going to
13 continue growing and growing throughout the
14 summer months.
15 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr. Flynn.
16 MR. FLYNN: So then on what is now
17 Item 7-B, I had the question on just the
18 wording being, you know, the legislation around
19 the safe -- Safe Streets and Roads For All
20 Grant, and how it says and/or Mulberry Street
21 and/or Moosic Street and what does that mean?
22 What -- what street is that
23 happening for? Does that mean if Mulberry
24 Street gets done with enough money, does it --
25 do they then go to Moosic Street or what --
47
1 what's the case there?
2 And so the response I received was
3 regarding the Safe Streets and Roads for All
4 Grant, the scope of the projects will -- the
5 city will pursue will depend on the amount of
6 funding awarded.
7 If the award is large enough, we may
8 pursue both project areas. So I guess the only
9 follow-up question I have -- and this is in
10 Seventh Order tonight, but the only follow-up
11 question I have, Mr. Voldenberg, is what is the
12 priority order here?
13 Is it Mulberry Street first and then
14 Moosic Street, which I would assume just based
15 on the way it's written or but what is the
16 priority order of the allocation of the funds
17 for those projects?
18 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
19 MR. FLYNN: And then last week I
20 reached out through Mr. Voldenberg to the
21 administration about a few do not enter signs
22 that -- at a few intersections throughout the
23 city. And I just want to thank the
24 administration.
25 I reached out on Thursday, and those
48
1 signs were put up on Monday morning. So it's
2 very, very timely, big signs where they were
3 very much needed. So -- so thank you to the
4 administration on that timely response and
5 putting those signs up.
6 A resident reached out to me last
7 night -- and something I'd like for us to look
8 into, I would assume it's the cable companies.
9 But some of these new lines that they're
10 putting up and they seem to be coming over and
11 falling down towards the street and being
12 looped up in circles and hanging over the side.
13 What is the rationale for that?
14 How, you know, even just the resident told me
15 how one is all the way down on the street and
16 almost goes across the sidewalk. And if --
17 even if it's not, you know, quote/unquote a
18 live wire or dangerous, it's still unnerving
19 for individuals walking down the street.
20 And you see a wire hanging from a
21 utility pole and going across the street. So
22 why is that happening? And then could we --
23 could we find out what we could do to hold
24 the -- these particular, whoever it is, utility
25 companies accountable to make sure that all
49
1 those wires that they're putting up on the
2 utility poles are completely secured and out of
3 the way of the streets and the traffic below.
4 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of
5 it, sir.
6 MR. FLYNN: Thank you. The last
7 thing I have is, so I did receive
8 correspondence from the director -- OECD
9 Director today that I was added to the
10 Unsheltered Task Force that I will now be on
11 e-mails, will be attending the meeting. So I
12 will -- I will give updates as the meetings
13 come.
14 But -- but I was -- I was added to
15 it. I'm very grateful for that. I think I
16 could, you know, bring -- bring some other
17 ideas and some of my visions towards -- towards
18 helping these individuals to the task force and
19 also I will try my best to be as thorough as
20 possible on reporting out what these -- what
21 these meetings entail.
22 But I just want to confirm that the
23 administration has added me to the task force.
24 So that's all I have. Thank you.
25 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.

1 In regard to the Castle House, Mr. Flynn put
2 that in. And the answer that he did receive
3 back was that code enforcement had been
4 notified. We do have blight coordinators. And
5 we have blight workers.
6 We have -- at this point in time we
7 have far more blight individuals in the city
8 that deal with blight than we've ever had. Can
9 we find out what the process is in regards to
10 those individuals and instances like this that
11 we get where, I mean, it's an obvious issue of
12 blight. Yet code enforcement's dealing with
13 it?
14 Does it go through the blight
15 coordinators? Does it go through these
16 individuals before it gets to code enforcement
17 or what is the process so Council knows how to
18 better address these?
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll get the
20 process, sir.
21 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
22 Last week we got -- we had an e-mail with --
23 with several questions for 3100 of Cedar that I
24 asked to be sent in in preparation for the
25 hearing today. Did we ever get any answers
51
1 back on those questions for 3100 of Cedar?
2 MR. VOLDENBERG: Were they the
3 questions that were asked and placed in the
4 final study?
5 MR. SCHUSTER: They were not. So it
6 was another e-mail that we got. I thought in
7 preparation for the hearing today we can get
8 some of those answers. We never got any of
9 those back. But we also had a couple that --
10 that came up today in the hearing and as well
11 in Fourth Order.
12 If we could just get those questions
13 over prior to Seventh Order. It is final
14 passage. And if the administration wants that
15 passed, it would be a good idea that they get
16 these questions answered prior to that final
17 vote.
18 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll follow up on
19 them all.
20 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
21 There was a question that mister -- well --
22 let's see, Mr. McAndrew had asked about an
23 update for repairs at the -- and clean out at
24 the Lookout. And the answer that he received
25 back is the city is still in the process of
52
1 having a Lookout designated as a historic
2 landmark.
3 Statewide LSA grant awards have not
4 yet been announced. And the city applied for
5 that funding in October of 2025. The blight
6 team regularly visits the site and has removed
7 graffiti. That was the answer on an update on
8 the Lookout.
9 Some of the questions I had last
10 week, one was the 421 of Colfax Avenue. I had
11 asked for an update on the blight crew
12 assisting with clearing overgrown grass and
13 brush. And they stated that the blight
14 remediation team has been informed.
15 I had some questions regarding
16 Weston Field about an update on the pool and
17 playground. It seemed like there was some work
18 that was being done over there. I wasn't sure
19 if that was going to interfere with the
20 operation of the pool. I asked if the pool was
21 open and operational and if there were any
22 issues.
23 And the answer that we got back is
24 the pool is operational and will open June 6th
25 and 7th. And then the pool will be open daily
53
1 starting the weekend of June 13th. I asked
2 about an update on the playground. Is that
3 playground fully funded? Is that -- what's the
4 timeline on the playground being put in at
5 Western Field? Does the city have the
6 playground equipment in possession or are we
7 waiting on -- awaiting delivery?
8 And the answer that came back was
9 the city received an ORLP grant for Weston
10 Field. And we're completing the federal
11 government contracting process. No equipment
12 can be purchased prior to that contracting
13 process.
14 So the update for that playground is
15 they're still working through that contracting
16 process. I asked about complaints that I'm
17 still receiving about the gates at Weston Field
18 not being locked and individuals on the field
19 at all hours of the night.
20 And the answer that we got back are
21 the gates have been locked until this past
22 weekend as equipment is needed to be brought
23 into the mini pitch field.
24 They may be still unlocked from time
25 to time to facilitate more equipment for the
54
1 mini field -- the mini pitch project. And once
2 it is completed, the gates will be locked
3 again.
4 I asked what studies were completed
5 prior to the highway occupancy permit for the
6 West Scranton Streetscape Project and did the
7 city take into consideration the trucking
8 business at the end of Dorothy Street.
9 And they came back and just said
10 it's been referred to the city engineer. Now,
11 this project goes back quite a long time. It
12 goes back to when Mr. Gaughan was President on
13 Council. When it came before us, it was
14 sidewalks. It was removal of trees, things
15 like that. But that was back in 2023.
16 Originally it passed in 2023. And
17 it was supposed to be completed by 2024. It's
18 now two years later. But in that, we've
19 applied for a highway occupancy permit that
20 changes the street to a one way. And I've
21 asked several times did we apply for it as a
22 one way.
23 And that was a question similar to
24 Cedar Avenue. Did we apply for that permit or
25 did we put in for that traffic study to be a
55
1 one way or was it something that PennDOT had
2 dictated that we must do there? So if we could
3 just ask that question again, did the city put
4 in for a highway occupancy permit, stating
5 initially that it was going to be a one way, or
6 did PennDOT dictate that that street was going
7 to be a one way?
8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask that
9 question again, sir.
10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
11 Regarding 5-E of last week, there was a
12 contracted firm for asset management. I asked
13 well, who was the project -- who was the group
14 that was in charge of that to begin with. It
15 was PFM Asset Managements that performed the
16 activities that started in May of 2023.
17 And they've, I believe, they put an
18 RFP out. And it seems that it's -- it's PFM
19 again just under a different name. I shared a
20 concern about a possible creek obstruction on
21 South Sherman Avenue near South Sherman. And I
22 got back that Chief Judge and the city
23 engineers visited the site on June 2nd.
24 No major -- major issues with the
25 water (inaudible) were discovered after walking
56
1 the channel. Chief Judge recommended simple
2 maintenance including -- including the removal
3 of two trees upstream from Jackson Street
4 Bridge.
5 And that debris upstream of the
6 bridge and in the downstream covert leading
7 into the flood control project to be cleared
8 unrelated to streambed maintenance. So I thank
9 them for going out for that.
10 Next -- thank you. Let's see. I
11 did send an e-mail over to who I believed was
12 in charge of licensing or leasing of baseball
13 fields. I did have an individual reach out
14 from one of the baseball leagues. They wanted
15 to expand their league.
16 I thought it would be a great idea
17 with youth engagement as the city is trying to
18 get youth engagement up in the city. And it
19 seemed to be a good idea. I did reach out and
20 putting that individual in contact with those
21 individuals in the city, and I did get reminded
22 that I need to go through proper channels in
23 order to get that stuff done.
24 So I did ask Mr. Voldenberg if he
25 could now forward that e-mail and that contact
57
1 onto Eileen Cipriani so she could get that to
2 probably those same proper people in order to
3 get something facilitated with a new league in
4 the city.
5 I have a question about the -- if we
6 could ask the BA, Miss Cipriani, what is the
7 status of the contract with Rudolph Clark, LLC,
8 which they contracted for with the HUP test.
9 This year we were told by her that it was put
10 on hold. So it appears the contract is out of
11 date. It's expired.
12 They only did minimal work at the
13 time. Can we ask how much money was spent to
14 that firm and how much is left on the contract?
15 Is that contract indeed on hold or is that an
16 expired contract at this point in time? I do
17 know that the school district is looking to
18 pursue nonprofits.
19 And I'd just like to know where we
20 stand with this contract as they move forward,
21 too just to see what -- what options we have on
22 our end.
23 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask those
24 questions tomorrow.
25 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
58
1 The ambulance topic has come up several times
2 in the last few weeks. We've had them in for
3 caucus in the past. There was an issue that
4 was identified quite a while back when Council
5 had Penn Ambulance in for -- in for a caucus.
6 They answered many questions. They
7 made me feel better about ambulance service and
8 coverage that they could provide in the city.
9 Mr. Sean McAndrew and Mark McAndrew met with, I
10 believe, was it Eileen Cipriani and Chief
11 Judge?
12 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: No, it was
13 Chief Judge and Jessica Eskra.
14 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay.
15 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: And
16 Attorney Gilbride was there.
17 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. And it
18 seemed like the topic of that conversation was
19 more QRS than ambulance service.
20 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: No, it was a
21 little bit of both. They did bring up the QRS.
22 But it definitely was reasons why, you know,
23 the whole history of not having an ambulance
24 service and stuff like that.
25 There -- there is no plan going
59
1 forward, right? There's nothing -- I kept
2 asking for recommendations. But there's
3 nothing coming from the city that's a clear-cut
4 recommendation, here's what they want to do
5 temporarily and also going forward.
6 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. All right.
7 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: So, Mr.
8 Gilbride, anything I missed on that, Mr.
9 Gilbride?
10 ATTY. GILBRIDE: No, that's fine.
11 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay.
12 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. So I'd
13 like to request an update on where the city
14 stands with the QRS services that the
15 discussion is currently, how many individuals
16 in the department is this going to take and
17 what's the total estimated cost of that as well
18 as what's the total estimated cost of standing
19 up a city ambulance service as well as a hybrid
20 if that's one of the possibilities or something
21 that's of discussion.
22 And then actually I'd like to make a
23 motion as a formal motion if I could have a
24 second to formally request that the city
25 administration meet with Penn Ambulance,
60
1 discuss possible proposals, and then provide
2 Council with a list of those concerns that they
3 have.
4 MR. FLYNN: Second.
5 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Mr.
6 Gilbride, when it comes to that, would we take
7 a roll call on that?
8 ATTY. GILBRIDE: You should have
9 somebody else make the motion. It should be
10 seconded by an additional Councilman. And then
11 you should roll call.
12 MR. FLYNN: I make the motion.
13 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Second.
14 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Now,
15 would you like a roll call? We could do a roll
16 call.
17 MS. HERBSTER: Mr. Sean McAndrew.
18 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Yes.
19 MS. HERBSTER: Mr. Flynn.
20 MR. FLYNN: Yes.
21 MS. HERBSTER: Mr. Schuster.
22 MR. SCHUSTER: Yes. Thank you. And
23 that is all I have for this evening.

22 correct?
23 MR. VOLDENBERG: That's correct.
24 MR. SCHUSTER: Is that where they've
25 always met down there? Have they ever met --
63
1 MR. VOLDENBERG: I believe they
2 have at least recently.
3 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. In speaking
4 with them last week, it seems like maybe
5 another room could be provided. So we could --
6 can we just ask if another meeting room can be
7 provided in case that committee needs to take
8 public comment or anything like that?
9 MR. VOLDENBERG: We're involved in
10 the scheduling, so I'll look into it.
11 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank
12 you. And if there's not another room, can we
13 offer them Council Chambers for their meetings?
14 MR. VOLDENBERG: We can.

9 about the Serrenti Center and how it ties into

1 TO THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AND

21 PURSUANT TO THE CITY OF SCRANTON'S ARPA
22 SPENDING PLAN (RESOLUTION 69 OF 2022).
23 MR. SCHUSTER: At this time, I'll
24 entertain a motion that Item 5-H be introduced
25 into its proper committee.
67
1 MR. FLYNN: So moved.
2 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Second.
3 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question? So
4 on the question, there's a -- the backup
5 documentation is missing the final -- financial
6 impact section. It states 10 hours or more per
7 week for each of the -- what I believe was five
8 positions.
9 So we could just clarify. I know in
10 Fourth Order tonight it was stated four. But
11 can we clarify whether it's four positions or
12 five positions that are identified with those
13 10 hours?
14 And could we get an estimate of
15 costs for the amount of hours per those five
16 positions or four positions until the end of
17 the deadline of ARPA as well as the deadline
18 for when the ARPA funds are completed?
19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of
20 it.
21 MR. SCHUSTER: And then as a
22 comparable, there were two positions that were
23 hired. And I believe these two individuals
24 resigned. I did go through the budget. I know
25 we -- when it came to looking at the budget
68
1 going into that year, positions were added.
2 But it doesn't -- it doesn't seem that those
3 positions were in the 2026 budget.
4 So if there are in the 2026 budget,
5 could you please clarify where they're at in
6 that budget? And then if they're not in that
7 budget, could we have the salaries of those two
8 positions?
9 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll get that
10 information.
11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. And
12 that'll be a good comparable for -- for this.
13 Anyone else on the question? All those in
14 favor of introduction signify by stating aye.
15 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Aye.
16 MR. FLYNN: Aye.
17 MR. SCHUSTER: Aye. Opposed? The
18 ayes have it and so moved.

22 DESIGNATING THE 3100 BLOCK OF CEDAR AVENUE AS
23 ONE WAY SOUTHBOUND FROM DAVIS STREET TO CRANE
24 STREET.
25 MR. SCHUSTER: You've heard reading
69
1 by title of Item 6-A. What is your pleasure?
2 MR. FLYNN: Mr. Chairman, I move
3 that Item 6-A pass reading by title.
4 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Second.
5 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question?
6 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Yeah, on the
7 question, just hearing from some residents, you
8 know, it's saying that the developers never
9 came and spoke with them when they had meetings
10 that only Reilly came.
11 Like to me, that's very unneighborly
12 like. And it's disheartening to hear. We
13 always want to welcome new development. But
14 also, you know, we want good neighbors. And if
15 our neighbors in that community have questions,
16 they should be there to answer as well. So
17 disheartening to hear that. So I just wanted
18 to put that on the record.
19 MR. SCHUSTER: Anyone else on the
20 question? All those in favor signify by
21 stating aye.
22 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Aye.
23 MR. FLYNN: Aye.
24 MR. SCHUSTER: Aye. Opposed? The
25 ayes have it and so moved.
