$three million in stimulus cash two months away, North Hutingdon officers informed

by

North Huntingdon will receive approximately $ 3 million from the U.S. rescue plan for a variety of public projects, but community officials have been told they don’t expect the check to be mailed immediately.

It could be about 60 days before North Huntingdon receives the money under the stimulus package that Congress passed in March, community administrator Jeff Silka told commissioners last week.

The money would be allocated to the community by the state, said Silka, but it won’t be in a lump sum. Fifty percent will be distributed first, the rest will come later, said Silka. The community administrators learned more about the distribution of funds and guidelines for using the money during a recent briefing. Another is planned for June, said the manager.

“It’s not a check that can be issued whatever we want,” said Silka, like pensions or employee wages.

North Huntingdon can use some of the money on long-discussed changes to the townhouse that houses the administrative offices, including planning and zoning, and recreation and parks, and the police department.

Since the North Huntingdon Township Municipal Authority cleared the second floor of the municipal building and moved to their offices along Turner Valley Road, officials have been discussing reallocation of space in the building.

The planning and zoning office could be moved upstairs and the detectives would move to that room. Chief Robert Rizzo previously told commissioners that moving the detectives upstairs would not only give them more space, it would also allow a room to conduct interviews during an investigation.

The projects for which the municipality can finance the economy include improvements to the heating, ventilation and air conditioning in the townhouse.

When asked by Commissioner Ronald Zona about the project, Silka said it had been designed and could be put out to tender in June.

The municipality has discussed the need for several rainwater projects that could qualify for the stimulus money.

“This is kind of a New Deal,” said Silka, referring to the funding of public works programs under the New Deal, which was initiated under President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration during the Great Depression of the 1930s.

The community can also get back $ 266,000 in revenue it lost in 2020 due to the pandemic compared to 2019, Silka said. However, compared to 2019, the community lost only $ 166,000 in revenue last year after transferring about $ 100,000 from a capital fund account to the general fund. He is not sure how the federal government would explain this money transfer in the event of a permissible refund.

“Our earnings weren’t so negatively affected,” said Silka.

North Huntingdon: Particulars wanted on township’s $3M share of pandemic reduction cash

by

North Huntingdon should receive roughly $ 3 million from the latest $ 1.9 trillion bill passed by Congress last month. However, details of how the community can spend the money have yet to be set out.

“There are many bullet points” that say what the US bailout money can be spent on, but “no details,” said Jeff Silka, community administrator, to commissioners at a meeting on Thursday evening.

Silka recommended waiting to make a decision on how to spend the funds. The community has until 2024 to spend the money.

Local officials were briefed on the relief package Thursday in a meeting with county officials and a representative from the office of U.S. Senator Bob Casey, D-Scranton, Silka said.

According to Silka, the rules for issuing the money must be established by the US Treasury Department within 60 days of President Biden’s signature of the bill on March 11th. The federal government then has an additional 30 days to approve the allocation to the states. Pennsylvania has an additional 30 days to distribute the money.

The municipalities will receive half of their funding in 2021 and the rest in the next year, said Silka.

The municipality has to provide some money to cover the difference between the 2019 income and the lesser amount from taxes in 2020, said Silka.

“This is not a stimulus check for municipalities,” he said.

Some money could be used to upgrade the heating, ventilation and air conditioning in the townhouse, Silka said. Air filters and air disinfectants could be installed in the building where the administrative offices and the police station are located.

Employees could be eligible for rewards for what is considered a “hazard pay” for work during the pandemic, up to $ 15,000, Silka said.

The money could also be used to help businesses affected by the covid-related restrictions, Silka said.

Telegraph Employee Reports

A North Platte man was sentenced to state prison after not objecting to more than $ 10,000 being stolen from his mother.

Fifty-year-old Billy Phillips was sentenced to 18 months in prison after appearing before Judge Vicki Johnson at Fillmore District Court and was immediately taken into custody, according to a press release from the Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson.

Phillips acted as a proxy for his mother while she lived in a care facility in Fillmore County. For the past five years he has withdrawn money from her checking account and also cashed her pension checks, converting $ 10,495.30 of his mother’s money for his own use. His mother died in February 2021.

The theft case was investigated and prosecuted by the Medicaid Fraud and Patient Abuse Unit of the Nebraska Attorney General.

Spruce up your house for spring, North Fork model

by

The spring front was set up at Nicolette’s for the Home (Photo credit: Felicia LaLomia).

When winter comes, we crouch down and try to make our home as cozy and warm as possible to get us through the snow season. Spring has now arrived and it’s time to open windows, wipe shelves and bring some life back into our spaces.

We spoke to Norine Penacchia from touchGOODS Lighting and Design in Southold and Amanda Giuliano from Nicolette’s for the Home about simple ways to add a springtime feel to your North Fork home.

What are some easy ways to upgrade home decor for the spring season?

NP: Think fresh! Relieve yourself! Take this opportunity to debug your home and even rearrange furniture. Try out existing furniture in new places and clean up clutter.

AG: Replacing our flowers in the house with pastel tones is an easy way to make a room pop and also to incorporate these tones into pillows and throws. Also, don’t be afraid to swap out carpets or mats to blend in your new look.

(Credit: touchGOODS).

Are there any spring decoration trends that people can rely on?

NP: Yes! If there’s one thing we’re not afraid of, add a splash with an accent wall, an affordable and easy way to transform your interior space. Or keep it solid color but add some texture with board and slat or decorative panels to give it a little extra to make it stand out.

AG: Blush shades mixed with olive green and deep plums are very popular! For people who love blue and cool tones, soft, pale blue tones paired with deep navy blue and those olive green tones are the alternative color palette. It’s the mix of jewel tones with pastel colors. You will also see lots of yellow, olive, and wise greens trending.

How can people convey the beautiful feeling of spring in warm weather indoors? How to decorate with flowers

NP: wicker and rattan. These natural materials give every room warmth and lightness. Swap the heavier formal objects for tropical and airy rattan pieces. Removable floral wallpaper. Try it on an accent wall, behind bookshelves, or above a chair rail. An instant bouquet for your home!

AG: Tulips only represent spring! I also love eucalyptus. It’s a great staple to add to any arrangement. Daisies are also a beautiful spring flower. These flowers in every home make you feel like summer is just around the corner.

Federal Stimulus Cash May Enhance Dozens of North Texas Roads – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Price

by

Transportation planners and contractors in North Texas are preparing for a major slump in infrastructure stimulus spending, which President Biden unveiled on Wednesday.

Members of Congress are debating how much to spend, but most agree that an infrastructure improvement plan of some size is necessary.

North Texas would be eligible for a large amount.

The North Central Texas Governing Council has a long list of potential transportation projects.

“Not only is it exciting to have these conversations because of the size of the programs, but there is also an opportunity to tear down traditional silos and create a new, bigger vision,” said Michael Morris, NCTCOG transportation director.

For example, Morris said that improved internet access can be seen as an environmentally friendly form of transportation that keeps people from driving.

“We may be talking about equal access to the Internet, possibly as a means of transportation,” said Morris.

President Biden also called for spending on technology breakthroughs on climate issues, with a significant portion of the money going to historically black colleges and universities such as Paul Quinn College in south Dallas.

“I’m very excited about it,” said Greg Cody, Dallas contractor. He attended a historically black university in North Carolina.

He now owns GCC Enterprises, which partnered with a Hispanic company, Azteca, on a renovation project to prepare for bigger things.

“It just shows that when we pool our resources, we can develop something that will increase our capacity,” said Cody.

The Dallas Regional Black Contractors Association is working to encourage the inclusion of minority companies in this grand stimulus plan.

“This is a job creation opportunity and we want to look for ways to say yes instead of excluding people,” said RBCA President Kim Shaw.

Major projects that could be eligible for federal funding include the full reconstruction of I-30 Canyon in Dallas. Deck parks are proposed to connect the downtown segment of I-30 to the Cedars area, which was cut off in the original highway construction.

A bigger vision also removes the elevated street that separates downtown Deep Ellum.

Adding technology for autonomous vehicles of the future and reconnecting neighborhoods could increase the Biden administration’s favor.

“Interstate 30 is a perfect example that I believe will tick all the boxes,” said Morris.

Other examples of major NCTCOG transportation projects that could get a boost include:

* Bullet Train: Dallas to Houston

* Bullet Train: Dallas to Fort Worth

* Autonomous Transit (Tarrant, Midtown)

* Technology (Freeway Induction Loops)

* State Highway 183 (Section 2E +)

* Y connection (IH820 / IH20)

‘Dream’ of 66-acre leisure venue in North Corridor nearer to coming true

by

Bennett, unavailable for comment, requested the venue as a specific use of the property, which is divided into agricultural residential areas.

According to Hall County records, the property has a 1,139 square foot house dating from 1959 and other buildings, including a garage and “various outbuildings,” according to a report from Hall County planners.

The venue, which functions as Bennett Farm and Barn, has a building with outdoor and indoor areas for “smaller or larger groups”.

“The interior of the building would have storage rooms with plenty of storage space for chairs and tables,” Bennett said in her narration of the project. “The kitchen would have space for catering and flower arrangements. The interior of the building would have beautiful wooden beams and could aesthetically be a casual or formal setting. “

Bennett said the events would take place on the weekends and end at 10 p.m.

The hall planning staff recommend approval of the venue.

The planning authority’s recommendation would go to the Hall County Board of Commissioners on April 22 for a public hearing and final decision.
