16 MR. SCHUSTER: Are there any

17 comments on any of the Third Order items? The

18 only comment I have is 3-D, the pilot from the

19 Scranton Housing Authority. That's required

20 through HUD. Any other comments on Third Order

21 items? All right. If not, received and filed.

22 Do any Council members have any

23 announcements at this time?

24 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Yeah, I have a

25 quick one. This Thursday over in West Side,
 5

 1 the Victor Alfieri Society has their monthly

 2 luncheon. But they have a special menu this

 3 month. And it is raviolis or pasta with red

 4 sauce or chicken parm or half and half of any

 5 of the two of three items with meatballs.

 6 I could attest they do a great job

 7 and the meals are delicious. So the price is

 8 12 for members and 14 for nonmembers. That's

 9 all I have. Thank you.

10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Any other

11 announcements from Council members?

12 MR. VOLDENBERG: FOURTH ORDER.

13 CITIZENS PARTICIPATION.

14 MR. SCHUSTER: Our first speaker

15 tonight is Joan Hodowanitz.

16 MS. HODOWANITZ: Joan Hodowanitz,

17 Scranton. I'm just curious, since July 4th

18 falls on a Saturday, does that mean City Hall

19 will be closed July 3rd, Friday?

20 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Probably.

21 MR. VOLDENBERG: That's correct.

22 July 3rd, Friday.

23 MS. HODOWANITZ: So it will be

24 closed. Okay. Just -- I was just curious

25 because I missed the announcement if they had
 6

 1 one about it being closed a week ago, Monday.

 2 I noticed in today's agenda there's not much

 3 going on.

 4 We got one item in Fifth Order and

 5 one item in Seventh Order. And I know you're

 6 all gearing down towards the August recess.

 7 But I hope that Mayor Cognetti is not, you

 8 know, getting overwhelmed by her campaigning

 9 that city business is not moving forward.

10 It just seems to me like, okay,

11 there's got to be a lot that needs to be done.

12 And so I hope that when I come back next week,

13 we'll have a robust Fifth Order agenda. Let's

14 see, speaking of robust, I'm still looking for

15 the collective bargaining agreements for DPW to

16 be put on the website and eventually the

17 Scranton Fire Department's new thing.

18 It's -- you can't tell me, you know,

19 that it's a massive typing drill because that's

20 all electronic. So, you know, tell them to get

21 it done. Every taxpayer should have access to

22 those documents because we're paying those

23 fees.

24 Also, I don't -- you probably saw in

25 this morning's paper that they're making
 7

 1 considerable progress on the Fidelity parking

 2 lot down the street. And if you haven't, you

 3 ought to walk past that one of these days. I

 4 know you, you know, you park here, you come in,

 5 you get in your car, and you're out of here;

 6 but you ought to take a look at it.

 7 It's gonna -- it's going to be very

 8 nice when it's done. It's going to enhance

 9 this particular block. And speaking of

10 enhancements, we don't have that many

11 overwhelming crowds right now of people going

12 to see Big Boy, which is fine.

13 But several people had stopped me

14 last week because I live at Samters so I tend

15 to be on the sidewalk quite a bit. People had

16 gone to see the train. And they wanted to know

17 where all the best restaurants were, that kind

18 of thing.

19 And I don't know if it exists, but

20 does the Scranton Chamber of Commerce or

21 Scranton Tomorrow or the city have maybe like a

22 little brochure identifying, you know, the

23 different restaurants downtown or, you know,

24 the various neighborhoods.

25 Somebody asked me, you know, was
 8

 1 there a restaurant that specializes in German

 2 cuisine? I didn't know. I told them but I

 3 know where the Thai restaurant is. And I know

 4 where the Greek restaurant is. And I know

 5 where the kosher restaurant is.

 6 But that would have been something

 7 that would have enhanced the city's experience

 8 with having Big Boy come to town. If we don't

 9 have such a little brochure, maybe you can ask

10 the Chamber of Commerce and Scranton Tomorrow,

11 whomever, you know, put one together so that

12 when an event like this rolls around, they

13 could stockpile them at the various hotels,

14 because hotels were filled, you know, and have

15 them at the park at the Steamtown, where as

16 they walk in, here, have a brochure. Here,

17 have a brochure.

18 Go spend your money in Scranton.

19 Here, have another brochure, all kinds of

20 wonderful things, you know, where're the

21 nearest gas stations, you know, where's this,

22 where's that. But there's just something, you

23 know, that I'm not all that knowledgeable about

24 all the different restaurants downtown.

25 But I know there's a whole lot of
 9

 1 them, kind of thing. I don't know what the

 2 hotels have. Maybe they have something like

 3 that where they -- somebody asked me, you know,

 4 where the nearest Methodist Church was. And

 5 I'm going, I don't know, you know, kind of

 6 thing.

 7 But it's just something that

 8 might -- might have been of use. So maybe in

 9 the future because I'd love to see another

10 crowd like that come in. We have conventions.

11 We have other events that occur. That'd be a

12 good thing for the city to do. Thank you.

13 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Mr. Voldenberg,

14 reach out to both Scranton Tomorrow and the

15 Chamber, see what they have. I know most

16 hotels I've been in traveling, they always have

17 something. But if not, I mean, my students

18 will, as a project, will maybe work in tandem

19 with them too and put together a flyer.

20 And, you know, we have a graphics

21 department. And we have a printing department,

22 and an illustrated design department. We -- if

23 it's not -- if it's not already done, I don't

24 want to reinvent the wheel, but I've never seen

25 it. So that's something we could probably work
 10

 1 together on.

 2 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. I'll touch

 3 base with them tomorrow.

 4 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Thank you.

 5 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next is

 6 Mike Mancini.

 7 MR. MANCINI: Good evening, Council,

 8 and the good people of Scranton. Tonight, PA

 9 American Water. I'm here tonight to ask for

10 accountability. PA Water has cut into more

11 than 9 miles of Scranton roads in the last year

12 alone.

13 Many of those pave cuts were left

14 through the winter months for residents to look

15 at, drive over, and pay for when their vehicles

16 get damaged. These are not small cosmetic

17 issues. They're safety, taxpayer, and quality

18 of life issues. Residents pay taxes so our

19 streets can be paved, maintained, and safe.

20 Every time a utility cuts into our

21 streets, that utility has a responsibility to

22 restore the road properly, promptly, and

23 professionally. The burden should not fall

24 back on the people who have already paid once

25 through taxes, increased utility rates, then
 11

 1 pay once again through bent rims, damaged

 2 vehicles, alignments, suspensions, and unsafe

 3 driving conditions.

 4 The city has tools and its own code

 5 to address this, Chapter 412, Article Three,

 6 Street openings and excavations, require street

 7 opening permits and require work to be

 8 completed according to city and PennDOT

 9 standards.

10 Section 412 through 16 requires

11 temporary restoration immediately after the

12 work is completed and permanent restoration

13 between 30 and 90 days after temporary

14 restoration, unless the city grants an

15 extension.

16 It also requires the permittee to

17 maintain the temporary restoration. If work is

18 unsatisfactory or not completed, the city may

19 correct it and charge the permittee a cost plus

20 20 percent for an administrative fee. Section

21 412 through 19 allows penalties up to $1,000.

22 And every day a violation continues,

23 it's a separate offense. That matters. Fines

24 are not about punishment for the sake of

25 punishment. Fines are how the city protects
 12

 1 taxpayers, forces compliance, and sends a clear

 2 message that poor utility work will not be

 3 tolerated.

 4 I also ask Council to focus on newly

 5 paved roads. Section 412 through 15 says newly

 6 paved -- paving shall not be opened or

 7 excavated for five years, except in

 8 emergencies. And the utility openings within

 9 that five year requirement need expressed

10 approval.

11 Sections 412 through 16 further

12 require resurfacing standards for streets paved

13 within five years. So when PA Water cut into

14 Stafford Avenue in front of their own building

15 three weeks after the city paid to have that

16 avenue resurfaced, residents want answers.

17 Who approved it? Was it an

18 emergency? Was there a five year protection

19 followed? Was the utility fined or required to

20 restore the road curb to curb as required?

21 There are hundreds of these just like that.

22 Every cut needs to be addressed.

23 Storm drains must also be part of the

24 discussion, blocked, damaged, or poorly

25 restored drainage facilities create flooding,
 13

 1 icing, property damage, and dangerous road

 2 conditions.

 3 Scranton's code requires drainage

 4 facilities disturbed by the permitting to be

 5 protected, restored, or replaced, so they could

 6 continue to function. Storm water enforcement

 7 matters because blocked drains are not just

 8 ugly, they threaten homes, streets, and public

 9 safety.

10 There needs to be an ordinance in

11 place and fines distributed accordingly.

12 Residents should not be the collection agency

13 for poor utility work. The utilities must be

14 held responsible. When the city grants

15 extensions issued for every pave cut left to

16 the residents to view over -- run over the

17 damage with their vehicles, Council needs to

18 request this information, nine miles worth.

19 If the extensions were not issued,

20 then each utility needs to be backdated and

21 seriously fined, just like Taylor and East

22 Gibson streets in front of the ICC Church.

23 It's disgusting what PA Water's done to our

24 city.

25 They continue to dig up the roads
 14

 1 wherever with the mentality of whatever in the

 2 completion date of whenever. Lee Morgan

 3 brought water in from his house about two years

 4 ago.

 5 I wouldn't even wash my car with it.

 6 They're quick to raise the rates. They need to

 7 be held fully accountable for their disregard,

 8 disrepair, disrespect. The words of a

 9 wonderful man who we lost recently, shiny city

10 on the hill. The good people always deserve

11 that kind of special.

12 That was once quoted by Dave Wenzel,

13 our 27th Mayor of Scranton. Good evening to

14 our beautiful city.

15 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Our next

16 speaker is Mark Margavitch.

17 MR. MARGAVITCH: Good evening,

18 Council. I just was asking for some

19 clarification on kratom. Last week, is it

20 basically liability concerns? Is that what's

21 holding it up?

22 MR. SCHUSTER: We're getting all of

23 our ducks in a row to get the thing passed. So

24 there's already been some other municipalities

25 that have done it before. So we don't repeat
 15

 1 any mistakes.

 2 MR. MARGAVITCH: Okay, sounds good.

 3 Okay, well, so I'm just going to read what I

 4 have prepared here. So tonight, I stand before

 5 you with reservations about bringing this to

 6 light. The quandary is between safe housing

 7 and constitutional rights.

 8 As a former property manager, I've

 9 seen my fair share of apartments that, in my

10 opinion, were not up to standards. Every

11 tenant deserves a safe place to live. However,

12 constitutional rights matter too. With that

13 said, I bring your attention to the

14 Commonwealth Court's decision in Rivera v.

15 Pottstown of December of 2025.

16 It made clear that municipalities

17 cannot conditional -- cannot condition rental

18 operations on warrantless inspections, that is,

19 inspections done under the guise of public

20 safety.

21 Scranton -- Scranton's ordinance

22 states that every rental property is subject to

23 regular inspections, and that passing those

24 inspections is essential to maintain a rental

25 license and avoid penalties.
 16

 1 This is in direct conflict with

 2 Rivera v. Pottstown, because a lawful entry

 3 requires either consent from the landlord or

 4 the tenant, exigent circumstances, or a

 5 properly issued warrant. So I urge Council to

 6 amend this ordinance immediately to bring it

 7 into constitutional compliance and avoid

 8 unnecessary liability.

 9 And so what essentially that is,

10 is -- is landlord and tenants actually teamed

11 up. They -- they actually did a

12 pre-enforcement suit against the Borough of

13 Pottstown. And they won. Pottstown appealed

14 it. And it went to the Commonwealth Court.

15 Seven judges affirmed the decision.

16 Now, currently they are trying to

17 appeal it to the Supreme Court. I don't know

18 if it's going to go anywhere. But so right

19 now, any type of inspections that aren't done

20 with a definite probable cause warrant, a

21 consent from the landlord or the tenants or

22 exigent circumstances is unlawful now.

23 And you could review that. And if

24 anyone wants to reach out to me later, you all

25 know how to find me. If you have any
 17

 1 questions, I'll answer that now. But any --

 2 any type of inspections that are done after the

 3 fact the tenant is in there, cannot be done

 4 unless there is those three conditions.

 5 And you can't say, well, we have to

 6 get in there because we get in every two years.

 7 You don't get to violate everyone's rights just

 8 because you do it consistently. That's not how

 9 it works. So I just wanted to bring that to

10 light. Now you know. Good luck. Thanks.

11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Our next

12 speaker is Mark Scarinci.

13 MR. SCARINCI: A pleasant good

14 evening, Council, Mark Scarinci, West Side. I

15 just want to say that every morning you'll see

16 me at St. Ann's Basilica for morning mass at

17 8:30.

18 And when I go there, I see at least

19 two dozen parishioners. And they sit in the

20 same location at the church. And I say that

21 because I rarely come here, but when I do come

22 to the Chamber, I see Joan. I see Les. I see

23 all the others. And it reminds me of going to

24 church.

25 So I have a quick comment before I
 18

 1 get to the matter. Do you see this picture,

 2 Council? This is President Trump and Rodrigo

 3 Duterte, the President of the Philippines.

 4 Trump went over there in his first stint as

 5 President.

 6 And he shook hands with that Rodrigo

 7 Duterte. By the way, he's on the International

 8 Criminal Court for Crimes Against Humanity over

 9 there in the Hague. But the point I'm getting

10 at is that this man, Duterte, had the most

11 pottiest mouth, vulgarity, obscenity,

12 profanity.

13 And President Trump has been

14 infected with that man. I don't want to hear

15 President Trump saying any more obscenities, no

16 more profanity. This is the American -- this

17 is the United States, not the Philippines. I

18 want him to act in a professional manner, no

19 more profanity.

20 Now, the reason why I'm here. I

21 came here last April 21st, and I said before

22 the Council, we are in a two-week ceasefire

23 with Iran. And in those two weeks it became

24 two months. So from April 21st until June

25 23rd, nothing has happened except a few
 19

 1 skirmishes here and there.

 2 And then we have this memorandum of

 3 understanding. And it is the most terrible --

 4 as Bill -- as Bill Cassidy of Louisiana would

 5 say, is the worst policy blunder in decades.

 6 Ronald Reagan would be rolling over in his

 7 grave.

 8 So what happened was, was Trump

 9 somehow got a phone call. And he said, I'm

10 going to stop all this stuff. And he literally

11 threw Netanyahu under the bus. So I can tell

12 you something. There is this man here, and his

13 name you all well know, is Benjamin Netanyahu.

14 And he ain't gonna be fancy to anyone in his

15 country.

16 He's going to do what he wants to

17 survive Israel for 500 and more years to come.

18 And there's this thing called the Samson

19 Option. And the Samson Option in the Israeli

20 culture is when someone is going to do a

21 nuclear bomb on Israel, they are going to --

22 they are going to retaliate first -- first.

23 And so that's going to happen

24 because what has happened is that China and

25 Russia are really together with Iran. And
 20

 1 they're providing the GPS for those military

 2 weapons to shoot down the Reaper drones, to

 3 shoot down the Apache, to shoot down the F-15.

 4 It's all China and Russia.

 5 We don't want to take on China and

 6 Russia. That's why he's breaking it off. And

 7 so I have to tell you something. The Jericho

 8 three missile is going to be launched. And

 9 it's going to come. And it's going to destroy

10 all civilization with this -- with this nuclear

11 bomb.

12 And it's coming. And I'll tell you

13 when the trigger is going to come, Council, and

14 it's right here. And my time is short. Do you

15 see this, Council? This is King Charles the

16 third, in all his glory with his

17 jewel-encrusted crown. When this monarch dies

18 a natural death, it is then you are going to

19 see the nuclear holocaust.

20 But first, he must die a natural

21 death. And then -- and then you will see. I

22 told you we were going to war. I told you that

23 President Trump was weak. And I'm right on

24 this, Council. That is all, Council.

25 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
 21

 1 Our next speaker is Rik Little.

 2 MR. LITTLE: Hello, Council,

 3 Scranton, Rik Little. Ah, I just heard about

 4 the Samson Option, which is biblical. A lot of

 5 biblical things going on. But this body is

 6 supposed to, you know, a lot of talk I've heard

 7 before, you know, inspections about health and

 8 safety, and it just kills me.

 9 I mean, Lackawanna County doesn't

10 even have a health department. But what's

11 really going on, which really struck me when I

12 tried to get discovery when I was being evicted

13 by Scranton Housing Authority, is benefits.

14 And a lot of people are -- they just

15 have played with benefits for years. In this

16 town it's HUD. It's HHS. It's education. And

17 a lot of people are mad that federal benefits

18 are being taken out. But going back to the

19 Samson Option in this town, it's clear to me

20 that these data centers, that's the end.

21 I mean, already our power bills are

22 doubling and en route to tripling. And there's

23 a fire on Cedar Avenue, and there's not enough

24 water pressure. And I see all these signs high

25 up on the PPL poles, we'll buy your houses for
 22

 1 nothing, for cash, no matter what.

 2 Scranton has to come out and make a

 3 definitive statement as many communities are as

 4 Erin Brockovich, which is trying to help all

 5 these small towns and townships organized to

 6 say, we don't want the data centers. And this

 7 is -- this is the real health -- health thing.

 8 I mean, it totally overrides the

 9 Green New Deal, which I remember, you know,

10 because we're really at a war with -- with AI,

11 you know, from the hanging chads and the 2000

12 election and Gore losing, and then being paid

13 billions of dollars to write the -- I don't

14 know what is it, the inconceivable truth or

15 something, you know, that New York City is

16 going to be underwater by 2013.

17 It's all these things. Meanwhile,

18 you know, talking about electric cars, cars

19 that can drive themselves, they want to control

20 the cars. Anne Heche drives her car right into

21 a damn building and kills herself. Makes you

22 wonder what's going on here.

23 But people have to come together.

24 And as far as the city is concerned, there's

25 nothing good about data centers. And I'll
 23

 1 throw this in that from the top of the state,

 2 there's both, you know, political issue

 3 Republicans and Democrats, there's a lot of

 4 problems across the board.

 5 But in this state, I mean, with Josh

 6 Shapiro already, you know, setting out a $20

 7 billion deal with Amazon to build these data

 8 centers here and with Scranton not even owning

 9 the water and already on the losing end of the

10 power companies, you know, they're paving over

11 the streets and not keeping up their end of the

12 legal bargains as Mr. Mancini was saying.

13 We have to protect ourselves because

14 I tell you, the water isn't drinkable now. I

15 have to filter it to do it. And, you know, and

16 it's everything. It's -- it's the future.

17 It's the future. And just like a, you know, a

18 spaceship or Jesus appearing in the sky, you

19 know, it's that sort of a moment where people

20 should come together and -- and the officials

21 of Scranton have to come out and say what their

22 positions are on these data centers because

23 it's no good. Thank you.

24 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Our next

25 speaker is Les Spindler.
 24

 1 MR. SPINDLER: Good evening,

 2 Council, Les Spindler, city resident,

 3 homeowner. It was announced on the news

 4 tonight that State Representative Bridget

 5 Kosierowski announced that she has breast

 6 cancer. So my thoughts and prayers go out to

 7 her and her family, met her a few times.

 8 She's a very nice person, so all the

 9 best to her. The gentlemen spoke before about

10 kratom. I brought that up a number of times

11 now. A number of you up there said you don't

12 want to drag it out. Well, you weren't being

13 truthful. If it's dragged out any longer,

14 those ducks you're putting in a row are going

15 to be dead.

16 Next thing, last week President

17 Schuster just said there's already an ordinance

18 on the book for ATVs. What's the penalty for

19 that; do you know?

20 MR. SCHUSTER: I don't know offhand.

21 MR. SPINDLER: Because something's

22 got to be done. On the news last week, the

23 town of Hughesville, if people are caught with

24 e-scooters either on the sidewalk or on the

25 streets, it's $1,000 fine.
 25

 1 Small towns like Hughesville,

 2 Shamokin, they're taking the bull by the horns.

 3 Why can't we solve this problem? It's

 4 ridiculous. The chiefs should get out there.

 5 I don't know what the penalty is. We should

 6 get out there like Hughesville and announce

 7 what the penalties are going to be.

 8 Make it tougher on these people.

 9 When they hear this, maybe they won't go out

10 and act like idiots. I was a half a block from

11 my house this afternoon. Here come two people

12 on an e-bike coming right at me. I should have

13 just stopped there. They would have ran right

14 into me, but I didn't want my car to get

15 damaged, so I just moved over and let them go.

16 But I blasted the horn at them.

17 It's out of control. These small towns are

18 taking care of it. Shamokin is overrun with

19 the vehicles that they've confiscated. But we

20 can't do anything. Something's got to be done.

21 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Excuse me. I'm

22 sorry to interrupt, but there's some state

23 legislators are working -- legislation they're

24 working on now with some tougher -- tougher law

25 or strength in the law that hopefully when --
 26

 1 if that passes, I'll bring it back because I've

 2 been along with you for the ride.

 3 I mean, we've been talking about

 4 this for not just this year, for the past

 5 couple of years. And I bring it up every year.

 6 And -- and so hopefully, you know, the state

 7 passes something that we can -- we can grab a

 8 hold of and incorporate it and maybe into an

 9 ordinance here.

10 MR. SPINDLER: Well, I hope, because

11 it's out of control. To piggyback what Mike

12 was saying, did anybody ask these Pennsylvania

13 American Water people why the corner of

14 Clearview and Main Avenue isn't fixed yet?

15 Because that was their project. I guess --

16 that's one of the worst spots in the city and

17 that was their project.

18 Mike wanted to ask him a question

19 afterwards and they weren't allowed -- they

20 wouldn't answer. Oh, another thing about the

21 scooters, on Friday's news on Channel 16, in

22 Clark Summit, an 11-year-old boy ran a stop

23 sign on an e-bike. And he was hit by a

24 vehicle.

25 He was in critical condition. I
 27

 1 haven't heard anymore on it. But I blame the

 2 parents for that, letting an 11-year-old kid

 3 just ride around the neighborhood not obeying

 4 the laws, and it's -- I hope the child is okay.

 5 But it's ridiculous.

 6 The parents -- the parents should be

 7 fined or something for that. You don't -- I

 8 know when my kids were 11, they would never be

 9 allowed to do something like that. I blame the

10 parents. Oh, lastly, this is getting

11 hysterical.

12 Friday, I'm driving home, and it was

13 a real windy day, Friday. And I'm driving up

14 the right way on the one way on Euclid. And

15 the cardboard sign I've been talking about, the

16 wind blew so hard that it was like turned

17 around. So it's facing the people coming up

18 the right way, telling them they're going the

19 wrong way.

20 Something's got to be done. I mean,

21 I'm laughing at it at this point. It's

22 ridiculous. That's all I have. Thank you.

23 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you.

24 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Mr. Voldenberg,

25 did we get anything back on the inquiry I had
 28

 1 last week about, you know, fixing this sign or

 2 replace -- we have -- we make signs in DPW,

 3 like --

 4 MR. VOLDENBERG: I didn't get a

 5 status on that particular sign, but I'll follow

 6 up --

 7 MR. MARK MCANDREW: All right.

 8 Thank you.

 9 MR. VOLDENBERG: -- on its removal.

10 MR. MARK MCANDREW: Or just let's

11 make one. We have the, you know, the shop that

12 does it. You don't need a cardboard one.

13 MR. SCHUSTER: Our next speaker

14 is --

15 MR. ELLMAN: Good evening, Council.

16 MR. SCHUSTER: -- Ron Ellman.

17 MR. ELLMAN: I think the city forgot

18 this is our city's birthday. We're 160 years

19 old. I hadn't seen a word about -- you know,

20 that should be just as important. Well --

21 DR. ROTHCHILD: There was a

22 celebration for that at -- in front of the

23 Everhart Museum last month, birthday for

24 Scranton. There was a celebration there.

25 MR. ELLMAN: That's good.
 29

 1 DR. ROTHCHILD: Hosted by the city

 2 and the Mayor.

 3 MR. ELLMAN: I haven't -- I just

 4 haven't seen nothing about it. You know, this

 5 should be important --

 6 DR. ROTHCHILD: It is important.

 7 MR. ELLMAN: -- for us. Anyway, the

 8 next hour or so, I'd like to comment about the

 9 evils that are overtaking this -- our

10 communities, these data centers. Mr. Kelly and

11 Mr. Gaughan, just -- they just can't impress

12 people enough of the evils of these data

13 centers and the conglomerates that have more

14 money than the communities to fight them.

15 This is a losing battle. It's not

16 going to end well for us. We have to somehow

17 put a limit on these things. There's just so

18 much water and power. And you think water

19 won't end.

20 Look at the people in Dimmick. They

21 went without water. They're still without

22 water, many of them. All these places can't

23 use all this water and power up without

24 disastrous results. I think there'd be people

25 lose everything they've worked for all their
 30

 1 lives and accomplished because of these greedy

 2 landowners selling out without any interest

 3 whatsoever of their results of -- against their

 4 neighbors and so forth.

 5 The trouble is big business. The

 6 government wants big business. They don't want

 7 little people in business. Look at Shapiro,

 8 gives the bankers -- a bunch of failed bankers

 9 buying that 150 year old dump down here that's

10 tax exempt.

11 When they're through years from now,

12 the city won't get a penny out of anything,

13 apartments, whatever, it's rented out.

14 Cognetti gives $2 million to a bunch of failed

15 investors. It's unheard of in the banking

16 business.

17 For an absentee Mayor, she sure got

18 here to unload money on them. You know,

19 there's an old axiom, the government can't go

20 against the will of the people, except in

21 Pennsylvania where the people are opposing

22 these giant conglomerates and the results of

23 allowing them.

24 Three or four weeks ago I complained

25 about the streets torn to shreds, North Main
 31

 1 Avenue and Clearview. They haven't touched it.

 2 This is senseless, you know. This is one of

 3 the high volume places. A half a mile up on

 4 North Main Avenue, the Mayor made sure to tear

 5 up 500 feet of perfect -- because I walked it

 6 once years ago, curbs and sidewalks to show off

 7 the city construction.

 8 The worst street in the city is

 9 North Main Avenue. You know, I told you years

10 ago -- two or three years ago the cab driver

11 said there isn't a good street in the city.

12 And that's probably the truth. Thank you.

13 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next is

14 Lee Morgan.

15 MR. MORGAN: Good evening, Council.

16 Two brief things, one is, you know, I love it

17 when President Trump curses. And I also enjoy

18 the fact that he's the first President we've

19 had in a long time that took Iran on. And you

20 know what, we better wait until we see what the

21 result is before we listen to all the armchair

22 generals tell us what's going to happen.

23 Because he's really had some effect

24 on them. The other thing is, you know, people

25 come in here complaining about their gas, their
 32

 1 electric, their sewer bill. That goes to the

 2 Council because the Council should be writing

 3 letters to the PUC demanding that action be

 4 taken. They should be writing to their state

 5 representatives and state senators.

 6 And it's not happening because our

 7 government isn't functioning. So if we were

 8 inventing the wheel here today, it'd be a

 9 square, wouldn't even be an octagon. It'd be a

10 square.

11 Now, the thing I wanted to talk

12 about here tonight, which people have --

13 probably have no interest in, except other than

14 myself, is Father's Day just came. You know, I

15 keep talking about these female researchers and

16 the research they've done.

17 And, you know, the sad part is that

18 women are trying to save men and save fathers

19 because the report they've done. And I think

20 that every man and woman should read those

21 reports because they're saying that family

22 court is a court based in politics, but not

23 based in fact.

24 They talk about parental alienation.

25 I've worked with two men last year that killed
 33

 1 themselves over not being able to see their

 2 children for no reason at all. When you start

 3 reading the law and the way the law should work

 4 with custody and support, you find out that

 5 it's not happening.

 6 You've had other states pass laws

 7 where they stop putting men in jail for

 8 children that are not theirs. They started DNA

 9 testing all the children being born because in

10 Europe and in some places in the world, 40% of

11 the men who think they're the father are not.

12 They talk about children being

13 raised without a father, and the women

14 researchers have received -- have determined

15 that these individuals, whether their daughters

16 or sons will never be whole individuals ever.

17 Every important thing comes from the father

18 after birth.

19 It's really amazing. And we look at

20 the court, and we see the half-hearted things

21 they do. Don't ever forget one thing. A judge

22 is a politician with a law degree. And the

23 people you elect to represent you in

24 Harrisburg, they're not -- about as capable as

25 the people that are in this Council Chamber
 34

 1 because everybody's playing politics.

 2 Facts don't matter. The streets

 3 you're driving on that are a mess, they don't

 4 matter. The bridges that are falling down,

 5 they don't matter. The debt the city carries,

 6 that doesn't matter. The pension debt the city

 7 carries, that doesn't matter either.

 8 And the Rules of Council, they don't

 9 matter. I mean, take a good look at what's

10 going on in New York City. You've got

11 candidates running as Democrats, okay, that are

12 saying you -- telling you that they're

13 Democratic Socialists, and they don't care if

14 illegals rape people in this country, kill

15 people in this country, commit any crime.

16 They don't want ICE. They don't

17 want anything. And then you take a look at

18 what's going on in Ireland. They're taking the

19 place of their government. And they're

20 starting to force illegals out because they're

21 tired of their women and children being

22 sodomized and raped.

23 And they're tired of all the crime

24 that's taking place in their country. And then

25 I remember a year or so ago, a lady came here
 35

 1 from Green Ridge and talked about how illegals

 2 were driving through their neighborhood casing

 3 their area. Well, no kidding, because they

 4 were pillaging the whole country and selling

 5 the loot back to Chile and Argentina.

 6 And the government knew about it.

 7 And don't forget that we had a President in the

 8 White House whose wife said that he never ran

 9 the country. Five people helped him run the

10 country. I think we need to take a look at --

11 a hard look at who the Democrats really are and

12 all elected officials. Thank you.

13 MR. SCHUSTER: Would anyone else

14 like to address Council?

15 MS. KOLOSKI: Good evening. Good

16 evening, everyone. Doris Koloski, Scranton.

17 Okay, so I know it's getting old, but I do want

18 to talk about 421 Colfax Avenue again.

19 Somebody came up and cleaned up the whole

20 front. It looks wonderful. But they never

21 touch the back or anything.

22 Now, the -- my friend who is one of

23 the neighbors, she was -- I'm looking to make

24 sure I read the right thing. Okay, she filed

25 the 311. And she said -- she got this letter
 36

 1 back. Your 311 request blighted property and

 2 property maintenance has been resolved. We

 3 appreciate your patience and commitment to

 4 improving our community here in Scranton.

 5 Date of Resolution 6/17/2026.

 6 Resolution, property is condemned and on the

 7 demo list. Property owner is incarcerated. If

 8 you have any questions, feel free to, you know,

 9 da da da to the e-mail. Okay, what she had

10 sent in to 311 was the front property has been

11 cut.

12 But the rest of the property is

13 still an eyesore and a jungle. The issue is

14 not resolved. Okay, so before I leave when I'm

15 done speaking, is it okay if I show Mr.

16 Voldenberg the pictures so when he is sending

17 his message back over there he knows what it

18 looks like so what he could say, if it's okay

19 with you guys.

20 Okay, so that is -- that -- it is

21 terrible. The Jeep, the abandoned Jeep with

22 the orange tag on it is still in the same spot

23 on Mulberry Street, for whatever that's worth.

24 And what I was wondering is, if they said it's

25 on the demolition list again, I mean, I've
 37

 1 heard that, like, six or seven times.

 2 They always say that they filed a

 3 lawsuit or something and they couldn't do it.

 4 Does that mean that the lawsuit was resolved

 5 and now it can be torn down on the demolition

 6 list or is just -- if we could find something

 7 out about that or are we going to get excited

 8 and then find out that there's another lawsuit.

 9 I notice how everybody is talking

10 about the data centers. I have a question. I

11 don't know, the electric -- the electricity. I

12 know there's a big thing about the electricity.

13 And it's going to use so much electricity. And

14 right now, I think Scranton is having a little

15 problem with the electricity.

16 On Thursday night, I went to pick up

17 a friend on Moltke Avenue, and the electricity

18 was out. The traffic light was out. The

19 electricity was out at her house. I picked her

20 up before 4:00 in the afternoon. When we came

21 back, it was still out.

22 And I think she said sometime in the

23 middle of the night it came back on. Now, that

24 was Thursday night. It was very windy. So we

25 just figured, okay, you know, a line went down.
 38

 1 Saturday night I got home about 8:30 and I saw

 2 on my phone that there was a message from PPL

 3 that said you might be a -- electricity outage

 4 in your area.

 5 And with as soon as I finished

 6 reading it, the lights went out. It was out

 7 until after midnight. I woke up sometime

 8 during night to use the restroom, and I saw

 9 that the lights came back on. That was -- that

10 was Saturday night.

11 Monday we lost our electricity again

12 in the morning. I live up on Colfax by the

13 hospital and Arthur Avenue, Colfax Avenue. The

14 whole thing was out. And everybody, of course,

15 is speculating on Facebook about, like, well,

16 somebody hit a transformer; and they only --

17 maybe they only did a patch, maybe not.

18 But it just seems so quick -- weird

19 that it would come out on Thursday in one area

20 of the city, and then Saturday and Monday in

21 another area of the city. And it's what their

22 message was, was that the morning went on --

23 Monday morning, the electric company's message

24 to us was that it should be restored by four in

25 the afternoon.
 39

 1 But if they could reroute something,

 2 it might be earlier. And they did because it

 3 was early. It came back on earlier. Today,

 4 I'm sitting in my house. I had people over.

 5 We play Mahjong. All of a sudden, the lights

 6 flickered. And I thought, oh, no, don't tell

 7 me the electric's going out again.

 8 But it didn't go out. It just

 9 flickered and came back on. So I don't know

10 what's going on with the electric company. But

11 if this is a problem now, what's it going to be

12 like when they do data centers? I guess I'm

13 done.

14 MR. SCHUSTER: And then, Doris, if

15 you want to, you could e-mail us those pictures

16 or you could text them, and we'll get them put

17 in with the information that gets sent over.

18 MS. KOLOSKI: Yeah, that's fine. No

19 problem.

20 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank

21 you.

22 MS. KOLOSKI: I'll do it right now.

23 MR. SCHUSTER: And if you could just

24 state your name and address?

25 MS. LOFTUS: Sure. Good evening,
 40

 1 Council. My name is Jennifer Loftus. I live

 2 at 1220 Rundle Street here in Scranton. I've

 3 been watching this play out from home. And I

 4 couldn't in all good conscience allow this to

 5 continue without providing the correct

 6 information about kratom.

 7 In order to make sense of all of

 8 this, I'm going to give you all what I call a

 9 quick and dirty explanation of a few concepts.

10 Your body generally wants to achieve what's

11 called homeostasis, which means it looks to

12 keep everything in balance.

13 It has all kinds of mechanisms to

14 make this happen. Weight lifting, for example,

15 causes microtears in the muscle. And that's

16 why you're sore. So the body says, "Hey, we

17 got damaged because we lifted something too

18 heavy." So it repairs that with a larger

19 weight in mind.

20 Now the muscle is bigger, and the

21 muscle can now lift that newly encountered

22 weight. You can use this as a metaphor to

23 understand a lot of the body's processes.

24 Excuse me. If you drink coffee every day, and

25 then suddenly stop, you will experience
 41

 1 withdrawal.

 2 It's the headache, irritability, and

 3 other symptoms that many people are familiar

 4 with. That is physical dependence. If you

 5 drink coffee and it creates an enjoyable

 6 experience and helps you be more productive,

 7 you have now married the coffee and the happy

 8 in your mind.

 9 If you then add the pain of

10 withdrawal when you take away the coffee, your

11 brain will naturally make you want to seek out

12 more coffee. Your brain produces natural

13 opiates to help in times of pain and stress.

14 It does not sadly produce enough of these for

15 things like surgery, broken legs, or chronic

16 pain.

17 There are chemical compounds,

18 natural and otherwise, that mimic these opiates

19 in your brain. So now I want you all to think

20 about a lock and key concept. You have a

21 certain number of receptors in your brain

22 naturally. They are the locks.

23 Opioid drugs are the keys that fill

24 up all the open locks. If you flood the brain

25 with an opioid, the brain will create more
 42

 1 locks to fill so that it doesn't experience

 2 breathing depression that can lead to death.

 3 This is why pain patients can take

 4 an amount of medication that would kill someone

 5 who has never taken them before. Kratom is

 6 from a tree native to Southeast Asia. It's

 7 been used for centuries there by people working

 8 in the fields who chew the leaves while they

 9 work.

10 It can work as a mild stimulant at

11 lower doses. It has pain relieving properties

12 at other doses. There are not dead workers all

13 over the fields over there. You may hear that

14 it was banned in its country of origin. That

15 is correct.

16 It turns out that kratom is very

17 effective at helping people overcome opium

18 addiction. The British wanted to keep the

19 people there hooked on opium and make sure that

20 they were paying the tax on that opium to the

21 British instead of using their native kratom.

22 So it was illegal.

23 Kratom has chemical compounds that

24 act on the opiate receptors in your brain.

25 Importantly, it has what's called a ceiling.
 43

 1 You may have heard of Suboxone. That's an

 2 opium -- opioid addiction treatment. What that

 3 does is, it fills in the locks that I was

 4 talking about in the brain for you. And it has

 5 a ceiling effect.

 6 That means it won't overload the

 7 locks and get you high after a certain point,

 8 nor will you overdose. It will not cause an

 9 experienced opioid user to grow more receptors

10 or locks. Instead of investing in common

11 sense, medically supported, and science-backed

12 methods, this country invested in AA and NA,

13 which relies on abstinence.

14 At the behest of the DEA, guided by

15 hysteria, doctors cut off patients from

16 opioids. They didn't do anything about the

17 locks and keys. They just induced sudden

18 withdrawal. People did not, in fact, stop

19 using opioids. They simply got them from the

20 street.

21 Heroin will fill those locks just as

22 easily as hydrocodone. And it's much cheaper,

23 and it has no ceiling. What a lot of people

24 did was to switch over to kratom. It's legal

25 and safe in its natural state. In many cases,
 44

 1 they were veterans suffering with

 2 service-induced injuries and having been cut

 3 off from prescribed drugs. Most people don't

 4 want to use street drugs. They're dangerous.

 5 I am not talking about the gas

 6 station associated compound 70H that's

 7 lab-created from one tiny part of kratom. And

 8 it's often sold side by side with kratom. Many

 9 of the nightmare stories that you hear are

10 coming from that drug, not kratom itself.

11 There's no way to kill yourself with

12 kratom because of the built-in ceiling effect.

13 Any reports of such deaths are always polydrug

14 overdoses, which means kratom was one of many

15 things found in the dead person's system, not

16 specifically the thing that killed them.

17 Making kratom illegal is an

18 ill-conceived idea that will essentially send

19 law-abiding people who don't want to use

20 illegal drugs back to the street. It will lead

21 to a rise in fentanyl use and overdoses. You

22 will be consigning a large number of people to

23 death if you insist on making kratom illegal,

24 especially based on the inappropriate and

25 incorrect information that I hear almost every
 45

 1 week here.

 2 Not everyone using kratom is doing

 3 so because they are physically dependent on

 4 opioids though. Some use it for concentration

 5 and mild pain relief. Others are using it to

 6 relax. Would you ban coffee? If you would

 7 not, you shouldn't ban kratom.

 8 Finally, you should know there is a

 9 large constituency in this city that uses

10 kratom. We will organize and vote you out of

11 office if you continue to pursue these

12 ill-advised plans. Thank you.

13 MR. SCHUSTER: Would anyone else

14 like to address Council?

15 MR. COYNE: Tom Coyne, Minooka.

16 First of all, I was fortunate to see Norma who

17 came in here for the flower show. She was up

18 at Nay Aug Park, did a little bench talk

19 seating to a bunch of people who came by to

20 visit her.

21 And she had a question about whether

22 the light on Lackawanna Avenue in front of the

23 train station that was shipped away and

24 possibly going to fall on people, whether or

25 not that was corrected. And I said I'd report
 46

 1 back to her because she does watch. And that

 2 light is not there anymore. And it's actually

 3 been removed from that side of the sidewalk.

 4 So that's been resolved. There is no light to

 5 fall on people, one thing done on Lackawanna

 6 Avenue.

 7 The flower show, nice show. The

 8 only problem I have with it this time is when

 9 they moved it, they moved it up next to the art

10 museum. And there's a lot of hills and slopes

11 there. My mother came up this time. And she's

12 not quite as limber at her age that she used to

13 be.

14 And because the ground is unstable

15 up there and everything though it may have

16 helped the museum itself is so packed together

17 in that location directly in front of -- inside

18 the museum itself. It was a lot more congested

19 than going around that nice long paved circle

20 around the bottom of it.

21 I think in the future I would hope

22 they would move back down to the other area,

23 just because it seemed incredibly cramped up

24 where it is now. Thursday we had a cat -- I

25 had a catastrophic failure back in our block
 47

 1 for electricity. The top of the -- I guess

 2 that possibly might have been the closed

 3 breaker on the top that went between a high

 4 tension wire and the transformer locked up and

 5 it blew the top of the pole right in half, took

 6 the power out for the neighborhood.

 7 And the top section of the pole was

 8 actually hanging on the wires underneath it.

 9 It burned and severed the pole. And the pole

10 was actually physically burning at the top and

11 the cut off section. So there is something to

12 be said about there is a problem with the

13 infrastructure when the pole -- when there's

14 enough electricity that gets shunted through a

15 telephone pole to burn it in half.

16 Thankfully, it had a wire connected

17 to the top of it or else it would have been

18 coming down to the ground. It actually hung up

19 on the streetlight that was right from that

20 pole underneath it. 3200 block -- 3203 Phinney

21 Avenue in front of that section is that pothole

22 that I talked about, which is roughly 6 inches

23 deep and maybe 18 inches wide.

24 It would be nice if someone got out

25 there to throw some fill in it. For the church
 48

 1 picnic back there, it seems that DPW went out

 2 there and filled the potholes directly around

 3 the church picnic within that one block. But

 4 it seems they didn't go very far off that

 5 block.

 6 Like I said, it's out in front of

 7 3200 -- 3203 Phinney Avenue. And it's a little

 8 bit deep. Church on Pittston Avenue got a --

 9 across from Andrew Brown's, we gave them a loan

10 for sidewalks. Where are those sidewalks? It

11 came through a grant.

12 Sidewalks are still jagged, still a

13 tripping hazard, which they came in here for.

14 Cement is all jagged, but nothing has been done

15 on them. When we give a grant to an

16 organization from the -- from the Gambling

17 Association, do we ever follow up to find out

18 if that grant was -- and work was actually

19 done?

20 If the money they came to the city

21 for and asked for is done in a timely fashion?

22 Because there's nothing done back there. The

23 sidewalks in front of the street are exactly as

24 they were beforehand.

25 Data centers, you can't block them
 49

 1 because you've missed the zoning. Block the

 2 electric to them. Don't allow them to make

 3 generators. Change the code beforehand so they

 4 can't build the generators to power and have to

 5 take in the lines from elsewhere because they

 6 all want to build generation -- generation

 7 stations on site.

 8 So if it's too late to block the

 9 data centers because it's not part of the

10 zoning, move it on. Storm drains they

11 mentioned. It would be nice if all areas had

12 storm drains in their section unlike our area,

13 which has none.

14 A couple years ago -- about a year

15 and a half ago, I came in there with a sign.

16 And I said Scranton 311 has now gone to

17 Scranton, no, one, one, one. It's still the

18 same. You call up, get no response. No one

19 wins by calling that number.

20 And the last update is, I take it we

21 got nothing about the gift cards back? Okay, I

22 did some research on the gift cards. It is

23 true that 75 were handed out to the city.

24 Evidently, nine were handed out. That was nine

25 in two years, which means to hand out 200 will
 50

 1 take the city approximately 44 years at that --

 2 at that progress.

 3 I confirmed the number that 75 were

 4 given out in September and October of 2024.

 5 And there's still 125 waiting there for the

 6 city to pick up and use. It's still out there.

 7 So they didn't disappear. And they haven't

 8 been used by city employees. They've just been

 9 abandoned. Hopefully, we'll move on from that.

10 Thank you.

11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Would

12 anyone else like to address Council?

13 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Mr. Voldenberg,

14 for the church on Pittston Avenue, I know

15 sometimes they have to do the work first before

16 they get the grant money and that they get

17 reimbursed. Can we just check to see if that's

18 the case there?

19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. I'll check

20 in the morning.

21 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Thanks.

22 MR. VOLDENBERG: FIFTH ORDER. 5-A.

23 MOTIONS.

24 MR. SCHUSTER: Dr. Rothchild, do you

25 have any motions or comments?
 51

 1 DR. ROTHCHILD: Yes, I do, a few.

 2 First, I just wanted to touch on the Electric

 3 City Flower Show. I did have a chance to go by

 4 on Saturday. And I was really pleased to see

 5 the amount of vendors. It seemed like a lot

 6 more vendors this year, but I'm not sure if

 7 that was more of the space that it was in and

 8 being a bit more cramped compared to its

 9 previous location.

10 Although I did like everything being

11 closer together too, but I understand the

12 concerns that were expressed about people being

13 able to get around and uneven grass. But it

14 was quite enjoyable. And there was a really

15 large crowd. We had to park in one of the

16 parking lots, like, all the way in the -- in

17 the back and then walk with the kids up there.

18 But -- but I was still glad to --

19 glad to see it. And I, unfortunately, I missed

20 Norma, so I didn't get to see her there, but

21 sadly enough. But I'm glad to hear that she --

22 that she attended and came back to Scranton for

23 it.

24 Something else that was -- that I

25 believe Mr. Mancini had brought up was one of
 52

 1 the streets that American Water had been doing

 2 a project on. And that's on Taylor Avenue in

 3 front of the ICC, which is the church my family

 4 goes to all the time.

 5 So we're aware of -- of how bad that

 6 pave cut seems to be getting. And I think

 7 someone has even mentioned that it seems to be

 8 more of a sinkhole -- a possible sinkhole at

 9 this point. So, Mr. Voldenberg, it's -- it's

10 really important that we get -- that we get

11 them back over there to fix that pave cut

12 because there's, you know, a lot of people that

13 travel there, a lot of people that go to the

14 church there and -- and just, you know, people

15 in the neighborhood that are maybe even

16 avoiding that street because of the severity of

17 it.

18 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of

19 it, Dr. Rothchild.

20 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. And on

21 the topic of Scranton tourism that was brought

22 up by Miss Hodowanitz, I did just want to make

23 mention I was -- I was out over the weekend

24 downtown as well.

25 And I felt like I was seeing some
 53

 1 people around still that were here because of

 2 tourism. And I think it's fantastic. And it's

 3 not that we haven't had any tourism before, but

 4 having such a large influx of people in a short

 5 period of time for the Big Boy, and now

 6 upcoming too for the World Cup watch parties.

 7 And today it was just announced with

 8 the -- with the concerts that are going to be

 9 taking place. And a lot of people my age

10 excited to see the Hansen brothers. So I'm,

11 you know, really happy to see that hustle and

12 bustle downtown.

13 As for restaurants and

14 recommendations for that, anyone with Google

15 who puts in places to eat downtown Scranton,

16 what you'll first get up -- I mean, you'll have

17 suggestions for some of the local restaurants.

18 But if you go to the Lackawanna County Visitors

19 Bureau, you can see on their page -- you can

20 filter it out to specifically to downtown

21 Scranton or to certain types of meals or

22 cuisines.

23 And then same thing, the second one

24 that comes up is Scranton Tomorrow's website.

25 So they have their dining guide. And I -- I
 54

 1 believe that comes out annually, and same

 2 thing, where you can cater it to what type of

 3 cuisine you're looking for in downtown

 4 Scranton.

 5 So those are available resources for

 6 people visiting the area that would be I think

 7 the places best to encourage them to look for

 8 suggestions and recommendations for where to

 9 eat downtown or I'm happy to suggest places too

10 because I have plenty of favorites.

11 On another note, I know that

12 Councilman McAndrew had requested that members

13 of the Unsheltered Task Force come in to meet.

14 I did just want to provide an update. I know

15 that an e-mail was sent to the task force

16 asking which members would have an interest.

17 So we're just gathering right now those people

18 who would be able to attend.

19 And I explained when, you know, that

20 our caucuses are at 5:45 and what kind of

21 information we'd be looking for. But if there

22 are specific questions, I know we've had a lot

23 come up from the public in the past about it.

24 So if members of the public have specific

25 questions for the Unsheltered Task Force, then
 55

 1 even though we don't have a date set yet -- I'm

 2 assuming this is going to take place during the

 3 month of July, then you might want to begin

 4 getting some of those questions to us that we

 5 can ask during that -- during that caucus.

 6 And on the note of electricity, I,

 7 you know, I know as well that people have been

 8 experiencing issues throughout the --

 9 throughout the Hill Section neighborhood with

10 the electricity shutting off or, you know,

11 lights flickering.

12 And my daughter even made note of

13 it. She's like, the lights are out again. And

14 like, she's, like, why does that happen? Like,

15 that never happens. So I'm not sure what's

16 going on either. But maybe there's something

17 that we can do to reach out from Council or

18 from the city to PPL and find out where the

19 issue is coming from since this is becoming a

20 consistent problem for residents in that -- in

21 that neighborhood. Mr. Voldenberg, would you

22 be --

23 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Dr.

24 Rothchild.

25 DR. ROTHCHILD: -- send that
 56

 1 communication, please? I'd appreciate it as

 2 would the neighbors in the Hill Section. And I

 3 think the last thing I just wanted to state is,

 4 I would not ban coffee. The person who came

 5 and brought that up before, and I'm, like,

 6 she's talking about coffee. And I love -- I

 7 love my cup of Joe. So that's all that I have.

 8 Thank you.

 9 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.

10 Mr. Sean McAndrew, do you have any motions or

11 comments?

12 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Yeah, I have a

13 few. First, answers to my questions from last

14 week. I again asked if the Parks and Recs

15 Director, members of the administration, and a

16 few members of the Scranton Municipal Authority

17 Board -- Recreation Authority would meet to

18 discuss the concerns regarding the new position

19 for the Parks Manager.

20 And as the responsibilities relate

21 to the board, there's some conflicting duties.

22 The response I got was the Nay Aug Park Manager

23 position was included in the 2026 operating

24 budget unanimously approved by City Council.

25 So they're still not answering my question if
 57

 1 they'll -- if they will set up a meeting with

 2 me.

 3 So, Frank, can we send a request to

 4 have the Parks Director come in for our caucus

 5 to maybe see if we can get questions answered

 6 that way? I appreciate the info. I understand

 7 it was in the budget. But when it was in the

 8 budget, the responsibilities were never listed.

 9 Responsibilities were given to

10 Council a week ago. So when it was approved,

11 the responsibilities were not listed that

12 Council did not have that information,

13 therefore, I think that now it's some

14 conflicting -- conflicting issues.

15 I think the administration should

16 know that this isn't the 2025 Council. Next

17 question, Councilman McAndrew asked if City

18 Council may please have a copy of the PEL five

19 year plan forecast for the city, indicated we

20 are a few weeks late of the final document and

21 as we're getting ready for upcoming budget

22 season.

23 The response was upon completion and

24 review of the report, the report will be issued

25 with significant time for review prior to the
 58

 1 presentation of the proposed 2027 operating

 2 budget in November.

 3 Okay, I'm willing to give them

 4 another week or two. But in the meantime,

 5 Solicitor Gilbride, can you and me work

 6 together on -- I hate to do this, but

 7 submitting a right to know to get all the

 8 information, drafts included from PEL to the

 9 city?

10 And let's also look at options if

11 that doesn't work to use our subpoena power to

12 get the information. We have to ask multiple

13 times for documents and information that were

14 promised to us. Again, I just -- I don't

15 understand why this is so hard.

16 They have the document. They

17 have -- it's completed. Next, Mr. McAndrew

18 asked for clarification. I'm not going to read

19 the whole thing, but basically, working from

20 home. Is everybody equipped to work from home?

21 Do they have duties, like, you know, I work for

22 a company that works from home.

23 There's a lot that goes into working

24 from home, not just, Hey, pack up and let's

25 work from home. The answer I received was,
 59

 1 appropriate work from home accommodations and

 2 equipment are available to city staff when

 3 deemed necessary by the Mayor and her

 4 administration pursuant to the Mayor's

 5 executive authority.

 6 All right. Next was regarding

 7 again, the Pretzel Park cameras. There's

 8 cameras being placed all over the city. Why

 9 don't we have an answer regarding our --

10 timeline regarding the Pretzel Park cameras?

11 The administration has previously

12 provided ample information to City Council in

13 recent weeks regarding the prior prioritization

14 and mechanics for installation of cameras

15 throughout the city and its parks.

16 So again, no timeline, no answer.

17 So to the residents of Green Ridge, especially

18 the Green Ridge Neighborhood Association, we

19 are trying up here to get at least some answers

20 to get these cameras up. But again, the

21 administration is not really giving us a

22 timeline or giving us information.

23 I know if we want to speak with the

24 Chief of Police, we were told we can give them

25 a call. But I'm sick of just having
 60

 1 conversations that aren't in public or getting

 2 at least stuff that's in writing. They won't

 3 put any concerns in writing.

 4 I'm done having those conversations.

 5 So hopefully we can get some answers soon. And

 6 could we send a message to the Chief of Police

 7 to give us whatever he wants to discuss with

 8 us, see if he will put it in writing.

 9 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.

10 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right.

11 Similar to President Schuster's questions

12 regarding the ambulance service RFP, you know,

13 we had some questions regarding when was the

14 decision made to do the RFP, is Fitch and

15 Associates going to be involved in the process,

16 and there was information told to myself and

17 Councilman McAndrew that when we met with the

18 city regarding EMS services that they met with

19 Geisinger.

20 So the response to me was, in

21 response to the comments made last week at

22 Council's meeting. Please note that it is a

23 city's -- it is a mischaracterization to state

24 the city decided to issue an RFP, and then

25 spoke to Geisinger regarding an RFP for EMS
 61

 1 services.

 2 As was discussed at our meeting, the

 3 administration has always had ongoing

 4 discussions with various EMT providers that

 5 service the city to ensure proper coverage. As

 6 clearly stated, the administration was

 7 considering an RFP as one approach at the time

 8 of our meeting and following said meeting, do

 9 what was perceived as interest by members of

10 City Council to be willing and open partner

11 through this process.

12 The administration immediately took

13 steps that day to arrange for an RFP. The

14 administration again reiterates its commitment

15 to an open and fair process for receiving

16 proposals from potential vendors for EMS

17 services and does not believe it is appropriate

18 for any city officials to meet with the vendor

19 to the exclusion of others to discuss possible

20 proposals or future services at this time.

21 So, I'm not sure what the

22 mischaracterization is. I'll be very clear

23 this time. When myself and Councilman McAndrew

24 and Attorney Gilbride met with the city, we

25 asked the question are you looking at any
 62

 1 avenues? What is your plan forward? Chief

 2 Judge -- we asked if they were looking at an

 3 RFP, RFQ. We were told there was no plans at

 4 all. Then I asked if they met with any --

 5 recently met with any local providers.

 6 They said, yes. When I asked who,

 7 they said Geisinger. So I agree, I would love

 8 to be a partner in this -- like it stated here.

 9 But we didn't even know there was an RFP being

10 done until we got answers to our questions last

11 week.

12 So they made this decision to do the

13 RFP without even telling us. And to be clear,

14 they did it after they met with Geisinger. I'm

15 not saying that they did the RFP and then met

16 with Geisinger. No, it was before that. So,

17 hopefully that clears up any concerns or

18 misunderstandings that the administration had.

19 Next, we keep getting e-mails

20 regarding Liederkranz Bar. And I know they're

21 an after-hours club. But there's been issues

22 from multiple residents now that have sent me

23 and other Council members documentations of

24 calls regarding noise complaints and a lot of

25 other things.
 63

 1 So can we, please ask the Chief of

 2 Police how many complaints were filed recently

 3 in the last year or two from the Liederkranz --

 4 and not just the complaints. I know if it's

 5 multiple calls come in, they're marketing as

 6 one complaint. Can we see how many calls total

 7 came in regarding this issue?

 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.

 9 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: As for the Parks

10 and Recs -- or the Nay Aug Parks Manager, I

11 have an idea. Why don't we have that person

12 lock up the parks at night, especially when the

13 pool season is closed because they're only

14 gonna be managing two people.

15 So we need to start locking these

16 parks up. I drove by Weston Park the other --

17 Weston Field the other -- the other night. It

18 was about 11:00. And there's multiple kids in

19 there and skateboarding. So the residents

20 aren't -- are -- they're not lying.

21 This is an ongoing issue. Again,

22 these parks are beautiful. And I love that we

23 have so many upgrades. But we need to make

24 sure the neighborhoods aren't disturbed at

25 that -- or there's no issues for the neighbors.
 64

 1 So, can we please look at maybe adding that

 2 duty during non pool season for that position?

 3 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask that

 4 question.

 5 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay, and,

 6 Frank, can you find out when the Ethics Board

 7 meets?

 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: Pardon me?

 9 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: When the Ethic

10 Board meets next?

11 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will.

12 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: I have some

13 questions for them regarding something that we

14 received from a resident. And, Tom, if you're

15 available -- or Attorney Gilbride, if you're

16 available this week to work on those right to

17 knows and possibly subpoenas.

18 We keep asking questions. It's

19 questions that we deserve answers to because we

20 have a budget season coming up or we're trying

21 to get answers for our residents. I don't want

22 to go down that path doing right to knows and

23 subpoenas and all that stuff.

24 But we got to get a little bit

25 something other than getting no answers or
 65

 1 getting ignored. So unfortunately, if that's

 2 the approach we have to take, then I will be

 3 willing to do that. I said when I got in this

 4 position or I ran for the position, I will

 5 speak up for our residents. And I won't --

 6 I'll be the check and balances that's needed.

 7 And we're going to do that. And

 8 like I said, this isn't 2025 Council anymore.

 9 I think you could see by the questions we're

10 asking and -- and the answers we're demanding,

11 we do a little -- things a little bit different

12 here.

13 So hopefully going forward, this

14 relationship with administration can be better.

15 That is my goal. But again, if we're not

16 getting information, we have to go different --

17 different routes possibly. Thank you.

18 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Mr. Mark

19 McAndrew, any motions or comments?

20 MR. MARK MCANDREW: I have a couple.

21 So, first of all, I was in the room with

22 Councilman McAndrew with regards to the

23 ambulance discussion that we wanted -- we

24 wanted to know the concerns of the city as to

25 why we don't have an agreement or why we
 66

 1 shouldn't have an agreement with a service

 2 that's needed. All right. We definitely need

 3 something. This city of our size needs an

 4 agreement, period. Every surrounding

 5 municipality has an agreement with Penn

 6 Ambulance, right? We knew that. I knew that

 7 going in.

 8 Never there -- was there a

 9 discussion of RFP, RFQ, whatever -- whatever

10 words you want to use. That came about because

11 we've been hammering it up here complaining

12 about it. And meetings, enough with, like,

13 meeting with institutions or people.

14 How many times did our

15 administration meet with Geisinger, both times

16 with regards to the 100 foot parking garages.

17 It was constant. There's e-mails. I was never

18 at them meetings because I sat here. I didn't

19 want to sit in them meetings because I knew I

20 had to sit here and vote on behalf of the

21 people.

22 Fidelity, were there meetings, yeah.

23 I was never included. There was a lot of

24 meetings with the purchase next door. Call it

25 RFQ, call it our -- call it contracts, call it
 67

 1 purchasing the building next door. Was there

 2 meetings -- behind backdoor meetings, yeah.

 3 For our administration to say, hey, wait a

 4 second, you know, we're as open and transparent

 5 as everybody else. We want you too, Council.

 6 That's nonsense.

 7 The only reason that that process

 8 started because we made enough noise up here.

 9 And I'm glad we made enough noise up here to

10 get something moving forward with the -- with

11 an ambulance service with our city. So I don't

12 want to hear anymore of that because that's

13 nonsense.

14 Secondly, so I'm happy to report

15 that the Elm Street Bridge remains on schedule

16 to be completed in July. So everybody

17 listening, because there's people ask me every

18 week. It's soon because, guess what, July is

19 like next week. Also, so, okay, America Water

20 was in here. We talked about what are the, you

21 know, storm drains, basins, whatever you want

22 to call them, the identification of them is a

23 process.

24 And there's always been a blame

25 game. The city says they're not ours.
 68

 1 American Water says they're not ours. And then

 2 now I heard there's some type of split

 3 ownership that I'm still have trouble

 4 understanding. But we're told that there is a

 5 map or somewhat of a map. I asked last week,

 6 I'm like, come on already because I've been

 7 bringing this up as long as I'm here, right?

 8 And my question was, we need a

 9 map -- not a map. We need -- if you want to

10 give us a map, fine. Maybe the city -- if we

11 finally get a map from American Water, give it

12 to the city, they have -- they should have the

13 wherewithal to create a list, alphabetical, so

14 it's your street.

15 I live on St. Ann's Street. People

16 live on Rundle. There was a girl here earlier.

17 You should be able to go on the website, click

18 on your street, and like Councilman McAndrew

19 over here said, and it should determine and

20 tell you who owns the drain that's in front of

21 your house or in your court or in your alley.

22 And I find it hard to believe that

23 the city doesn't want to know which drains are

24 theirs. I believe the water company -- because

25 they -- at least they come and tell us they're
 69

 1 doing the work, they're looking for it and how

 2 and the process.

 3 I have a better understanding. And

 4 I appreciate them coming here. It's a huge

 5 undertaking. But why can't, I mean, this

 6 building is here over 100 years. There's

 7 archives here. There's got to be archives with

 8 storm drains.

 9 And the Sewer Authority before it

10 was purchased, had to have archives because I

11 had a gentlemen tell me that on Powell Court

12 the Sewer Authority always took responsibility

13 of -- for it.

14 And they told me tonight, well, it's

15 kind of a split thing. But the Sewer Authority

16 knew. It's unfortunate it was sold. We

17 can't -- we can't reel back time or roll back

18 time. But I believe there's got to be archives

19 here and archives at the old Sewer Authority

20 that has it because these things were built.

21 Guess what, they were built. All

22 right. So, if someone built them, someone has

23 ownership of building these drains. I believe

24 there's data there. And I'm just sick of

25 hearing that we're still collecting it. It
 70

 1 doesn't make sense to me.

 2 So I hope both sides get together

 3 finally and work this out for the residents

 4 because it's terrible. Also, so, Joan, you had

 5 a great idea. I like the personal touch of a

 6 flyer, personal flyer; you know what I mean? I

 7 know Happenings Magazines does it.

 8 I know, Dr. Rothchild, I utilize

 9 Google sometimes when I'm out of town. But

10 guess what? Sometimes the menu is not updated.

11 Sometimes the business is closed. I'm going

12 fishing tomorrow with -- and I live here. I'm

13 going fishing tomorrow with my grandkids and

14 needed to redo my fishing license.

15 I typed in Field and Stream, tells

16 me Viewmont Mall. Go up there. It's Dick's.

17 So Google's not always as reliable as you think

18 it is. So God forbid someone -- I mean, I at

19 least knew that. But someone coming out of

20 town isn't going to know even who Scranton

21 Tomorrow is with their dining guide.

22 It's going to be great for us, but I

23 just think the personal touch, especially a

24 student-generated project that could be an

25 integrated project with some other classes,
 71

 1 like for design and the printing of it, and the

 2 artistic piece, that is, you know, because a

 3 lot of seniors have senior projects.

 4 I just think, you know, if they

 5 embrace it after you reach out to Scranton

 6 Tomorrow and the Chamber, we can partner with

 7 this. And this could be a really nice special

 8 touch project or a flyer that we can utilize

 9 when need be.

10 And let's see what else I have. I

11 think that's all I have. Thank you.

12 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Frank,

13 today we got an inquiry from a church. I had

14 forwarded it over to you to get to the proper

15 department. They were wondering about refuse

16 cleanup or refuse pickup, whether it's the

17 Treasurer's Office or DPW or --

18 MR. VOLDENBERG: -- get that out.

19 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you.

20 MR. VOLDENBERG: I do believe they

21 do require a hauler to pick their trash up.

22 MR. SCHUSTER: All right.

23 MR. VOLDENBERG: But I'll double

24 check.

25 MR. SCHUSTER: Yep. Thank you very
 72

 1 much. I had some questions a few weeks ago

 2 regarding a property on Wayne Avenue. I had

 3 asked -- there were several incidents that

 4 occurred at the property. I had asked about it

 5 being a nuisance property if it was a -- it is

 6 a rental property if there was a property

 7 manager, etc.

 8 And I did get some answers back

 9 at -- from that one. So I asked has the

10 property been deemed a nuisance property by the

11 Scranton Police Department? How many calls are

12 on record with that? What designates a

13 nuisance property?

14 And I was told that we spoke with

15 the homeowner, advised them that this property

16 could be deemed as a nuisance based on the

17 number of police calls. We further advised the

18 owner that any additional issues would result

19 in closure.

20 SPD also sent a letter to the owner

21 with the same regards. The tenants are

22 currently under eviction. However, they filed

23 an appeal, which is remaining pending. So I

24 asked about it. Does the landlord maintain the

25 property or do they have a property manager?
 73

 1 Was the property -- property visited in the

 2 past? Is it registered through rental -- the

 3 Rental Department, and have they paid their

 4 rental fees?

 5 And the answer that came back was a

 6 rental inspection has begun on 4/10. But the

 7 owner has not scheduled the second

 8 re-inspection. It is not passed currently.

 9 Once it passes the second inspection, a license

10 can be issued.

11 So it looks like they don't have a

12 rental license as well. So many calls to the

13 residents, no rental license, hasn't been

14 inspected. I asked how many times the Fire

15 Department had been visited to the property

16 because neighbors told me that the Fire

17 Department were there many times as well.

18 And they let me know that there have

19 been approximately 11 incidents that have

20 occurred at this property that the Scranton

21 Police Department have been there since January

22 of 2026. So it's a very short time that the

23 police have been there 11 times.

24 I would think this property is a

25 nuisance property at this point in time. It
 74

 1 should be noted that not all the calls were

 2 counted towards declaring the property as a

 3 nuisance, however, due to the nature of those

 4 calls.

 5 And then they did answer about the

 6 Fire Department. The Fire Department responded

 7 to the property twice in 2026 because of

 8 basement flooding. So that seems to be the

 9 only one that makes sense. I did ask about the

10 RFP with Fitch and Associates in regards to the

11 EMS service.

12 They did a study to look into the

13 feasibility of the city opening or starting its

14 own EMS service, which would be another

15 department in the city. That department closed

16 in the city, I believe, in the 1980s due to the

17 cost to the city of running that department.

18 So with this RFP process, Fitch and

19 Fitch -- or Fitch Associates was retained to do

20 the RFP process. But it was not part of the

21 original study. So that question was answered.

22 I did ask about if Council could get a copy of

23 the resume for the new parks manager at Nay

24 Aug.

25 And I got the same answer that Mr.
 75

 1 McAndrew got as on the advice -- the advice and

 2 consent of City Council for the hiring of the

 3 Nay Aug Parks Manager is not required per the

 4 City's Charter. I do understand that or the

 5 Administrative Code.

 6 So I understood. But looking to

 7 make sure that we're hiring individuals that

 8 have the background for these positions. And

 9 the last piece was this position was previously

10 approved by City Council in the operating

11 budget.

12 So sometimes things don't look the

13 way they are in a budget. We passed the

14 budget. It had this included. But after that

15 point in time, we're no longer involved in it.

16 Something similar happened with community

17 centers in our area, where, you know, some of

18 the community centers in Scranton were

19 approaching Council saying we need a roof

20 replacement, which costs $33,000.

21 We need some bathroom replacements.

22 We need (inaudible) replacements. These are

23 city properties. And if the city isn't going

24 to help us with the maintenance of these

25 properties, the neighborhood associations might
 76

 1 not be able to do it.

 2 Recently, Tripp Park, the Tripp Park

 3 Community Center, has been handed back over to

 4 the city. So a neighborhood association, which

 5 was volunteering to do that work of maintaining

 6 that building, has now given up those reins to

 7 that building. And it's now with the Parks

 8 Department.

 9 Council did want to put money in for

10 those community centers since they are city

11 properties. But when that money got put into

12 the budget, the only say that we had in it was

13 that it was in the budget itself. So that

14 money got put into the budget. That line item

15 was put into the budget.

16 And from there it turned into

17 grant -- grant opportunities to be passed out

18 around the city. And not to say that those

19 aren't good projects, but the money was put

20 there for the maintenance of community centers

21 in Scranton.

22 But once it's put into action after

23 that line item gets put into action, it's a

24 little bit different than sometimes we think it

25 would be, tried to be -- have some oversight on
 77

 1 Council, just to make sure we had the right

 2 position, right person for the position.

 3 But we're not privy to know what

 4 that individual's background was that was hired

 5 for the position. That's all I have for

 6 tonight.
