next Town of Owego Meeting - Tuesday July 19, 2011 7 PM

Please attend the meeting to provide support for the replacement of the Bolles Hill Road.

Turnout at the meetings has been sending a positive message; it shows the representatives how much we care.

Here’s a quick summary of where we are:

Little Meadows Borough

Little Meadows Borough expects approval of the loan to finance the  Bridge this week or next.

Little Meadows Borough needs $10k over next two years or they cannot start the project.

Town of Owego

Don Casstelluci phone call to lobby Penn DEP to allow existing temp bridge to stay till 2013.

(resident talked with Penn DEP today – DEP want permanent bridge or existing bridge comes out Sept 2011)

We’ll ask that Town of Owego fund the $10,000 Little Meadows request.

Residents

Attending the meeting of both Owego and Little Meadows.

Lobbying to replace the temporary bridge with permanent bridge.

We’re reacting to the changing circumstances.

In the worst case that Town of Owego rejects the request to pay the $10,000 –  We will work to collect pledges to cover the $10,000 from local residents and business.

#1 priority – Town of Owego to approval the Little Meadows Borough request to fund the $10,000 by August 1, 2011.
