At Tuesday night’s meeting of the Bradford City Council the official hours for trick-or-treat in the City of Bradford were announced — 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Monday, which is Halloween.
Council approved a resolution to authorize the city solicitor to prepare documents for the 2023 tax anticipation borrowing, a measure taken every year to help with beginning-of-the-year expenses before tax revenues start coming in. The maximum amount for the borrowing was $850,000.
At the request of Greg Kloss, council approved seven signs for the parking lot of Northwest Bank, which is on Pine Street. The signs indicate parking is for the bank’s customers only, and that there is to be no skateboarding, rollerblading, bicycle riding or loitering in the lot. The parcel was newly acquired by Northwest, across from its current parking lot, and the signs will be placed on the Flood Control Authority’s railing.
Council also approved:
•paying $2,999.66 to J.A. Luciano and Sons Builders for repairs to a wall at 150 W. Washington St. from the emergency demolition at the old McCourt Label building;
