RNN SELINSGROVE 05/11/26          HEADS UP DRIVERS............. NIGHTLY LANE RESTRICTIONS ARE EXPECTED AT THE INTERSECTION OF MAIN AND MARKET STREETS IN BLOOMSBURG THROUGH THURSDAY AS CREWS REPLACE WATER MAIN LINES. TO AVOID HEAVY TRAFFIC, WORK WILL TAKE PLACE BETWEEN 9 P.M. AND 6 A.M. ADDITIONALLY, A NEARLY TWO-HUNDRED-THOUSAND-DOLLAR PAVING PROJECT IS SET TO BEGIN NEXT MONDAY IN THE SUN VIEW TERRACE DEVELOPMENT, TARGETING CLOVER AVENUE AND SUNSET DRIVE.          PLANS TO BRIGHTEN THE MARKET SQUARE FOUNTAIN ARE ON HOLD AFTER TOWN COUNCIL MEMBERS RECEIVED A 55-THOUSAND-DOLLAR QUOTE FOR NEW UNDERWATER L-E-D LIGHTING. PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR BRADY BRINK IS NOW SEARCHING FOR CHEAPER ALTERNATIVES AFTER ONE COUNCILMAN DESCRIBED THE INITIAL PRICE TAG AS "YOWZA."

NO ONE WAS INSIDE THE BUILDING AT THE TIME. BOROUGH OFFICIALS AND ENGINEERS ARE MEETING WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS TODAY TO ASSESS THE DAMAGE AND DETERMINE IF THE AREA IS SAFE TO REOPEN.
