 6 located right by the pool.

 7 The drive is in an effort to restock

 8 some of the local food pantries. They're

 9 asking for volunteers for the drive for each

10 day. And if you are willing and able to

11 volunteer that, they ask that you please try to

12 make it an hour early to help them set up.

13 That's all I have. Thank you.

14 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.

15 Mr. Voldenberg? Sorry.

16 MR. MARK MCANDREW: So this

17 Thursday, the monthly luncheon at the

18 Victor Alfieri Society over in West Side, you

19 know, you can dine in or take out. This month

20 they're having polenta or pasta with meatballs,

21 $12 for members, 14 for nonmembers. You know,

22 they always love it and thank your support.

23 Secondly, the Elm Park Church is

24 having its monthly dinner. So it will be

25 February 14th. It will be the Candlelight
 6

 1 Community Festival Feast. The doors open at

 2 five. This is free to the community. The menu

 3 is lasagna soup, salad and homemade lemon

 4 vinaigrette, pork tenderloin, twice baked

 5 potatoes, dinner rolls and butter, brussel

 6 sprouts, Valentines Day punch, coffee and tea

 7 and dessert made by Kira.

 8 Kira, which I'm happy and proud to

 9 say is a former student of mine that helps them

10 out a lot and makes all of their desserts.

11 That is all I have. Thanks.

12 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Mr.

13 Voldenberg?

14 MR. VOLDENBERG: FOURTH ORDER.

15 CITIZEN PARTICIPATION.

16 MR. SCHUSTER: Our first speaker

17 tonight is Miss Joan Hodowanitz.

18 MS. HODOWANITZ: Joan Hodowanitz,

19 Scranton. Let's talk about the snowstorm. I

20 think DPW did a damn good job under the

21 conditions they faced. Single digit

22 temperatures, nine plus inches of snow. Bad

23 timing, it just snowed all day long.

24 I live downtown on the 4th floor of

25 the Samter's building. And all day Monday and
 7

 1 nothing but Bobcats traversing Penn Avenue and

 2 Lackawanna Avenue and dump trucks and piles of

 3 mountains of snow and everything else.

 4 A lot of people get upset. And my

 5 mother used to get upset. She lived in

 6 Minooka. And she had a big driveway. And

 7 after I retired I would get out there and I'd

 8 do all the shovelling and everything else.

 9 And here would come a plow and it

10 would push the snow and bury the end of the

11 driveway. I guess this happens to just about

12 everybody that owns a driveway. But people

13 have to understand when that plow goes down the

14 street, they'll go more than once obviously.

15 They go down the street and usually

16 going down the center. The purpose is so that

17 they open up the road for emergency vehicles

18 just in this case there's an emergency. Now, I

19 don't know what people think is going to

20 happen, you know, they plow down the street

21 and, yes, they bury the end of your driveway.

22 But there is no army of DPW workers

23 to take shovels and shovel out the bottom of

24 your driveway. You need to have the roads open

25 for your own protection. I hated it when I
 8

 1 would go out three, four, five times and have

 2 to reshovel the bottom of the driveway so I

 3 could get my car out.

 4 But that's the price you pay for

 5 being secure on that street that if a there's

 6 an emergency, emergency vehicles are going to

 7 reach you. Now, it's not a perfect system.

 8 Sometimes, you know, the plow might dump more

 9 snow on your side than on the other side of the

10 street.

11 Garbage pickup gets, you know,

12 pushed back. People with, you know, they have

13 their garbage cans in alley might get picked up

14 two, three days late. It's not perfect. But

15 if you would like to work outside when it's 5

16 degrees and there's a wind that gives a

17 windchill factor of minus 10 degrees below

18 zero, have at it. You couldn't pay me to do

19 that kind of work.

20 So, DPW, thank you. God forbid we

21 have another snowstorm this weekend. There's

22 a possibility. It's not likely, but it's

23 possible. But they earned every penny they

24 made these past two days, in my opinion. And

25 speaking of our wonderful DPW, do we have a
 9

 1 union contract yet?

 2 MR. SCHUSTER: That's still ongoing.

 3 MS. HODOWANITZ: Okey-dokey. I will

 4 tell you what is still ongoing also is the

 5 City's website. You click on labor contracts.

 6 The CBAs, you're going to see a page with 13

 7 documents. And most of them are old, outdated,

 8 obsolete documents.

 9 They do not have on the website the

10 current CBA for the police. Now, I mentioned

11 this a couple weeks ago. I don't know who took

12 it down and who reengineered that web page, but

13 they need to put them back up. Those are

14 public documents and we need to see them.

15 And something good that I wanted to

16 mention, Scranton Public Library is having

17 what's called Family Mini Golf this Sunday from

18 12 to 3 p.m. at the Albright Memorial Library

19 and the Children's Library. There will be golf

20 holes in both buildings for kiddies.

21 And when they make a hole at the

22 Children's Library, they're hoping that they'll

23 take a free book with them back home. The

24 price is $5 if you get a ticket in advance, $7

25 at the door. But it's a fun event. It's a
 10

 1 fundraiser for the library.

 2 And the kids love it. They really

 3 love it. They're going through the stacks,

 4 you know, and we engineer all kinds of things

 5 for them to play golf. The snow date if we do

 6 get the snowstorm from hell, is February 22nd.

 7 So let your families know. Winter can be fun

 8 if you let it. And, DPW, go, go, go. Thank

 9 you.

10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next up

11 is Mike Mancini.

12 MR. MANCINI: Good evening,

13 Scranton. Tonight I want to talk about

14 something we all experience daily, the

15 condition of our local roads, whether you

16 drive, bike, or walk, you notice how many

17 potholes, cracks and uneven surfaces that have

18 become part of our landscape.

19 What used be small annoyances that

20 turned into safety hazards that cost our

21 community time, money, and peace of mind.

22 Every year residents report hundreds of

23 potholes and damaged streets. Yet, repairs

24 often come slowly or patch jobs don't last.

25 These neglected roads aren't just
 11

 1 inconvenient, they damage vehicles, put

 2 cyclists at risk, and make it harder for

 3 emergency responders to reach those in need.

 4 Poor maintenance that just doesn't reflect

 5 wear and tear. It reflects priorities.

 6 Fixing our roads isn't about

 7 aesthetics. It's about investment in safety,

 8 local economy and quality of life. When roads

 9 are well maintained, commutes get shorter,

10 small businesses thrive and neighborhoods feel

11 cared for.

12 Smooth reliable infrastructure

13 attracts residents and employers. It shows

14 that our city is moving forward. But progress

15 does not happen without action. We need our

16 local officials to commit to consistent

17 maintenance schedules, transparent reporting of

18 road requests and smarter use of public works

19 budgets.

20 Let's push for better materials,

21 modern paving and patching methods that last

22 longer and reduce waste. And as citizens, we

23 should hold leaders accountable by attending

24 Council meetings, reporting hazards, staying

25 informed about infrastructure funding -- bless
 12

 1 you.

 2 Our roads connect every part of this

 3 community. They take us to work, to church, to

 4 school, shopping, to see family and friends.

 5 Maintaining them isn't a luxury. It's a

 6 necessity. Let's make sure that the streets we

 7 travel every day reflect the pride and care we

 8 have for our city.

 9 Together we could move from

10 frustration to action and from potholes to

11 progress. I would like to see Council bring in

12 the inspection firm that inspects our pave

13 cuts. From where I stand, the progress is

14 broken as evidence of poor planning will have a

15 poor result.

16 Once thawed, our roads would be in

17 the worst condition in my lifetime. A critical

18 function that was not broken was ultimately

19 taken away from DPW. Let us recognize a group

20 of public servants who rarely seek the

21 spotlight, but those who work to keep our

22 community moving safe and connected, the

23 Department of Public Works and its snow removal

24 team.

25 When winter storms hit, they're the
 13

 1 ones who turn long nights and dangerous roads

 2 into clear streets and safe neighborhoods.

 3 While most of us are inside with our families,

 4 they're out in the dark and in the cold plowing

 5 streets, spreading salt, checking storm drains

 6 and making sure emergency vehicles could reach

 7 every home.

 8 They maintain the roads, bridges and

 9 essential infrastructure that we often only

10 notice when something goes wrong. But thanks

11 to their dedication, problems are rare and

12 solutions quick.

13 The recent storms tested every part

14 of our community. Schools and businesses

15 depend on safe roads. First responders depend

16 on clear routes. And our most vulnerable

17 neighbors depend on all of us working together.

18 Our DPW team answer the call with

19 professionalism, planning, long hours, turning

20 potential disruption into a powerful example of

21 what an effective and reliable team looks like.

22 Excellent snow removal does not happen by

23 accident.

24 It takes year round preparation,

25 maintaining equipment, training staff mapping
 14

 1 routes, coordinating with police, fire, and

 2 emergency management, watching the forecast so

 3 they could act before the first snowflakes hit

 4 the ground.

 5 It's a combination of skilled

 6 workers, good management, and a deep sense of

 7 responsibility to the people they serve. To

 8 the men and women of our DPW, thank you. Thank

 9 you for your nights away from your families,

10 the early mornings, the careful driving, the

11 problem solving in the middle of the storm and

12 the pride you take in every clear block.

13 You show us that public service is

14 not just a job, it's a commitment to your

15 community. On behalf of all of us, we

16 recognize your excellent snow removal work,

17 your dedication to maintaining our

18 infrastructure in every season and your

19 unwavering service to our town.

20 They truly deserve the appreciation

21 and the new contract that they truly earned.

22 Can you imagine what DPW can do with proper

23 leadership? Good evening, Scranton.

24 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next up,

25 Les Spindler.
 15

 1 MR. SPINDLER: Good evening,

 2 Council, Les Spindler, city resident,

 3 homeowner. I want to echo what Joan said. The

 4 streets do have to be plowed. But I live on a

 5 corner. I have a 130 feet of sidewalk and

 6 street to clean and did it yesterday.

 7 I did it once. They came by, plowed

 8 me in. I went out and cleaned it up again.

 9 They came by and plowed me in again. They had

10 the plow tilted in my direction. Why don't

11 they have it tilted straight going straight so

12 the snow goes to both sides?

13 Everything was pushed in my

14 direction while the other side of the street

15 was okay. I don't know why they do that. It

16 doesn't make any sense. I'm not getting any

17 younger. I had a lot of work to do yesterday.

18 So I hope they change the policies.

19 I don't know why they just don't go

20 straight down the middle instead of pushing it

21 to one side. Next, I didn't attend the meeting

22 last week but I watched it. I want to thank,

23 Councilman Sean McAndrew and Councilman Flynn

24 for attending that water -- the Pennsylvania

25 American Water meeting and speaking up for us.
 16

 1 And I went to that meeting last

 2 year. I think it was last year at the Masonic

 3 Temple when they asked for that outrageous

 4 hike. And I spoke against it. So I appreciate

 5 you sticking up for the residents. Unlike your

 6 predecessors, the only one they stuck up for

 7 was the Mayor. So thank you.

 8 Next thing, I see where the Main

 9 Avenue exit -- there's a sign there off the

10 expressway warning trucks about the -- the low

11 bridge. I'm glad they are trying to do

12 something, but I don't think that's the right

13 place for that sign.

14 I don't think many trucks coming off

15 the highway are making that right turn and

16 going under the bridge. It should be on Main

17 Avenue somewhere. They're either coming from

18 one direction or the other on Main Avenue.

19 That's not the right place for that sign. So

20 maybe PennDOT could move it. That's my opinion

21 anyway.

22 Next thing, almost had a heart

23 attack the other day when I heard about this

24 person was murdered in Minneapolis. They're

25 out of control. These ICE agents are out of
 17

 1 control. They have the man on the ground,

 2 two -- three or four agents were on top of him.

 3 All they had to do was handcuff the guy. But

 4 somebody yelled gun and all of a sudden they

 5 started firing shots. Something's got to

 6 happen.

 7 I mean, Governor Josh Shapiro was on

 8 the View this morning. I'm upset that I missed

 9 most of it. I just came down and put the TV on

10 later. And they asked him if he's going to run

11 for president in four years. And he said I

12 don't want to talk about that. I want to fix

13 what's going on now.

14 And what he did say what I've been

15 saying, we got to get out and vote this year

16 and turn the house Democrat and not Republican.

17 And maybe we could get Donald Trump impeached

18 and out of here. It's the only way this

19 country is going to get back.

20 He said make American great again,

21 well, he's making America bad. America was

22 always great. He's making it terrible. And

23 even his allies in the Republican party are

24 starting to turn against him. That's all I

25 have tonight. Thank you for your time.
 18

 1 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Would

 2 anyone else like to address Council?

 3 MR. ARGENTA: Good evening, Council,

 4 Virgil Argenta, Scranton resident. I'd like to

 5 commend DPW for the job they did with the

 6 limited resources that they had and the limited

 7 direction. The lack of the snow removal in

 8 Scranton this storm is unacceptable. It's

 9 evident that Mayor Cognetti has neglected her

10 responsibility to ensure public safety.

11 The streets are a danger to citizens

12 and first responders. It's unacceptable when a

13 police officer is dispatched to a call to

14 service and he or she is stranded due to road

15 conditions. To make matters worse, when you

16 call and notify 911, they're told there's no

17 emergency DPW shift.

18 And when the DPW comes out, they're

19 not allowed to use salt. This goes beyond

20 incompetence. It is a dereliction of duty.

21 The Mayor's lack of preparation of the storm

22 betrays public trust. What steps will be taken

23 to resolve this and how will the Mayor be held

24 accountable?

25 Scranton needs real leadership, not
 19

 1 empty statements. Allow the workers to do

 2 their job. They don't need to be micromanaged.

 3 They have been clearing snow for a long time

 4 here in the city and under a lot of

 5 administrations.

 6 This isn't just a failure. It's a

 7 pattern of neglect. Every previous

 8 administration has managed to mobilize

 9 resources and keep our streets safe during snow

10 storms. But under Mayor Cognetti, we're left

11 with chaos and gridlock.

12 Council, I understand this isn't

13 your problem. Let's not forget the ID badges,

14 Council. It's embarrassing that two newly

15 elected officials are being treated like second

16 class citizens waiting for basic credentials.

17 This is the kind of bureaucratic incompetence

18 you'd expect from a third world country, not

19 Scranton, Pennsylvania.

20 The lack of ID badges, lock down

21 City Hall preventing residents from addressing

22 issues and the understaffed DPW emergency

23 shifts are symptoms of a larger problem, a

24 Mayor who is utterly disconnected from the

25 needs of the city. It's like she is willingly
 20

 1 ignoring the responsibilities of her elected

 2 office.

 3 If this administration can't even

 4 manage something as simple as ID badges for two

 5 new City Council members, how can we trust them

 6 with millions of dollars of taxpayer funds or

 7 emergency response planning? This is a symptom

 8 of a larger disease, a Mayor who is out of

 9 touch and out of ideas.

10 It's no secret that this Mayor's

11 eyes are on Congress. That's not the job she

12 was elected to do. Her job is to run the city

13 and she's failing miserably day after day. The

14 timing is suspicious with snowstorms, ID badge

15 delays, City Hall lockdowns. It looks like the

16 Mayor's priorities are more focused on campaign

17 fundraising than constituent safety.

18 Council, it's time to call out the

19 neglect for what it is, a dereliction of duty

20 for personal ambition. The people of Scranton

21 didn't elect a congressperson. They elected a

22 Mayor. When will we see the Mayor's attention

23 shift back to the city she was elected to

24 serve?

25 But now let's talk about the kids,
 21

 1 the school children. Council, students are

 2 missing school because they can't get to

 3 school. Parents can't drop them off, can't

 4 pick them up and the school buses can't even

 5 get into neighborhoods to pick them up because

 6 the streets are impassable.

 7 This is unacceptable. Children

 8 deserve to be in school where they're safe

 9 learning. When will the Mayor prioritize their

10 needs? Council, I'd also like to request the

11 city's snow removal policy and procedure be

12 made available to the public.

13 It's very clear that the DPW workers

14 are doing their very best with the resources

15 they have. Let's not forget it's over one year

16 since they have not had a signed contract. Can

17 we all agree on an unfair contract

18 negotiations? But not now, that's for another

19 issue.

20 The issue lies in the lack of

21 leadership and planning from the Mayor's

22 office. Is the Mayor's office following

23 protocol due to the snow removal policy? Are

24 DPW workers being deployed accordingly to plan?

25 We need transparency on this.
 22

 1 To clarify, DPW workers are doing

 2 their best with the limited resources and the

 3 failed direction that they're getting. The

 4 issue lies with the Mayor's lack of leadership

 5 and planning for city safety.

 6 Council, another major snow storm is

 7 expected this weekend. Are we prepared? Let's

 8 consider a key point. Leaders should lead by

 9 example. In a city like Scranton, it's

10 important that top officials, especially the

11 Mayor live where they work.

12 If they don't make the community

13 their home, how can we be confident they truly

14 care about our needs? If the Mayor and top

15 officials live in Scranton, they would face the

16 same problems as everyone else, snowy roads,

17 traffic and safety and perhaps real solutions

18 would result.

19 Council members, this evening I

20 propose that we consider an ordinance requiring

21 key administrative officials to live within

22 Scranton. There should be no more waivers or

23 attempt to compensate for loss taxes. It's

24 time our leadership prioritize the people --

25 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you.
 23

 1 MR. ARGENTA: -- of Scranton.

 2 There's 80,000 resident here. I'm confident

 3 that we have plenty of qualified --

 4 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you.

 5 MR. ARGENTA: -- competent

 6 experienced individuals who would be proud to

 7 work for the City of Scranton.

 8 MR. SCHUSTER: Would anyone else

 9 like to address Council?

10 MR. LITTLE: Hello, Council, Rik

11 Little. I have too much I want to say. I

12 guess I'll start with everybody is living in a

13 bubble. People are arguing about things that

14 are crazy. I mean, I looked at the paper and

15 especially with the shooting in Minnesota, we

16 are in a civil war.

17 We're in a war with AI. Everybody

18 is taking advantage of that with all the

19 information is on our website. But it goes

20 into all the different agencies, especially

21 when it comes to democracy or voting -- how do

22 want to say it -- with the DMV.

23 It's still irks me all these Biden

24 Street signs. Biden let 200 million people in

25 over our border. That's what our problem is.
 24

 1 And what President Trump is doing is

 2 basically -- well, he is doing the Monroe

 3 Doctrine to secure our nation because we won't

 4 have a nation -- you could see what's happening

 5 in London, Paris, and Berlin and all over the

 6 world, Canada they become -- they bring --

 7 China lets out their insane and their jails and

 8 many other countries do that.

 9 They come here. They go to the DMV,

10 the local DMV and then they could vote. And

11 people are talking about democracy and, you

12 know, disenfranchised voters. The shooting --

13 I mean, it's tragic.

14 But, you know, they're blaming the

15 law enforcement officers. And it's the same

16 thing everywhere. The people in power, you

17 know, put it on the police or the sheriffs

18 or -- ICE is just trying to do their job. And

19 they're not going to stop.

20 I mean, in my opinion, they should

21 do it one state at a time. Send in the Marines

22 because they've stolen at least 30 billion

23 dollars. You could see them going out of the

24 airports. That means the airports are dirty

25 in this whole business and sending the money
 25

 1 back to their own country, especially Somalia

 2 if we are talking about Minnesota.

 3 I mean, that Mayor, Mayor Frey and

 4 Governor Tim Walz, they should be arrested

 5 under the law. No one knows what laws we're

 6 going under. We're trying to save our country.

 7 We're trying to save it under the Monroe

 8 Doctrine.

 9 The Dominion company that has the

10 cheating voting machines that were right here

11 in Pennsylvania and Arizona and Georgia, they

12 changed their name to Liberty. I mean -- I

13 don't read about that in the paper. Thank God

14 for social media and the people that are

15 talking.

16 That's how Trump got into office.

17 He came into office. Fake news, he's pointing

18 to all -- and that's what it is. That's what

19 I've studied all of my life is media. And it

20 is fake news. And it gets faker and faker when

21 you try to go online or you go to some agency

22 and, you know, especially with the Courts and

23 judicial branch.

24 I mean, the way our Constitution was

25 made, you know, pre1871 if a judge was drunk,
 26

 1 he's out. Now, they're the highest paid. They

 2 have so many rules and regulations that protect

 3 the judiciary. It's a secret. And you could

 4 see the way they were, you know, prosecuting

 5 Trump a couple years ago.

 6 But as far as Scranton goes, it's

 7 all over the place. There's greater Scranton

 8 and Scranton -- I mean, I was writing a book.

 9 You know, this is -- this is the seed of

10 capitalism, you know, around 1900. And that's

11 where I got lost. I go to the library. I see

12 what a great city. You know, they even made

13 their own money.

14 Whiskey rebellion was right here in

15 Pennsylvania. You know, we need to get on top

16 of stuff, 1776.

17 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Mr.

18 Voldenberg?

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

20 MOTIONS.

21 MR. SCHUSTER: Mr. Sean McAndrew, do

22 you have any motions or comments?

23 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Yes. First, I

24 want to bring up -- it was brought to my

25 attention regarding the Laceworks development
 27

 1 property, they received a letter from the

 2 Department of Licensing, Inspections and

 3 Permits alleging that the property is zoned for

 4 an L-1, light industrial and they are in

 5 violation of Section 5183 for operating a

 6 short-term rental.

 7 Laceworks' property, apartments,

 8 venue, it's a beautiful property. It's a, you

 9 know, one of the best redevelopment projects

10 the city has seen in a while. This is exactly

11 the type of investment the city should be

12 working with and especially given that they do

13 have weddings and everything there.

14 The short-term rentals kind of seem

15 like a natural fit. But my understanding is,

16 that property was actually rezoned back in 2019

17 to a -- mix use with an adaptive reuse approval

18 as part of the whole project which spans --

19 that property is a big property which spans

20 from Myrtle Street to Albright Avenue. And

21 it's one single parcel supposedly listed.

22 Can we contact the LIPS Department

23 to confirm whether these rezoning parcel

24 configurations are accurate?

25 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
 28

 1 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: I could send you

 2 all the information I have on it too. I'll

 3 e-mail it over to you.

 4 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll do that

 5 tomorrow.

 6 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right. So

 7 last week, I did receive some answers to my

 8 previous questions right before the meeting

 9 that I wasn't able to look through and answer

10 or speak out on. We did get some of the

11 Fidelity reports back.

12 So I appreciate the administration

13 giving us the Reilly report and the third party

14 inspector report. But I do have concerns,

15 whether, you know, are they going to have a

16 more comprehensive building inspection done

17 before the due diligent period is running out.

18 The document we got was about five

19 pages. It wasn't really in detail. When I

20 purchased my home and did a house inspection, I

21 think the pages that are together it was like a

22 50 page report.

23 So I'm just wondering, is there

24 going to be another inspection or is this

25 everything they're going on to move forward
 29

 1 with the purchase?

 2 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask those

 3 questions.

 4 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right. The

 5 ARPA questions I asked for, I asked for one

 6 consolidated report. I do appreciate their

 7 response. But the documents that were given

 8 still don't -- like, they gave multiple

 9 documents.

10 They gave us -- which I thought the

11 best one was the Excel that broke down what

12 type of award it was, how much they received,

13 how much has been paid out or if it was

14 cancelled. But they also gave memos that they

15 provided to Council throughout the years with

16 updates on who got awards.

17 A lot of information is on the memo

18 but it's not on the spreadsheet or even how

19 they're not properly listed under the current

20 name on the memo versus the spreadsheet. There

21 is also things that we know that were in the

22 media or promoted or announcements that were

23 made that additional recipients got the awards

24 that aren't on either.

25 So I'm going to ask one more time.
 30

 1 I need one document. The Excel file was

 2 perfect telling me who got it, what they got,

 3 how much is paid out if anybody was cancelled,

 4 you know, mark it just like they did all in one

 5 place so we could take a look at this because

 6 it will help us, you know, see, you know, which

 7 ones maybe do a further deeper dive into.

 8 And I just want to make sure the

 9 funds were used correctly and it would be

10 easier if everything is in one place, not five

11 different documents with some things on this

12 and some things not on that.

13 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask for that.

14 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right. I

15 did get some responses today regarding my

16 questions regarding the DPW contract

17 negotiations. I asked when the timeline of

18 negotiations began, what the process -- what

19 progress has been made to date and who from the

20 city represents the administration in the room

21 and how much is set aside in the budget to kind

22 of get this contract done.

23 The response I got was, "DPW

24 negotiations have been ongoing through 2025 and

25 parties met in January of 2026. Incremental
 31

 1 progress has been made at each session. The

 2 city administration is represented by the labor

 3 counsel, the Business Administrator, the DPW

 4 Director and the HR Director. The city has

 5 accounted for the DPW contract in the 2026

 6 operating budget."

 7 So I understand they accounted for

 8 the contract, which I expected. I'm wondering

 9 how much. How much money did they set aside

10 for the contract because purchasing buildings,

11 you know, we probably just paid a ton of money

12 we're going to be paying for the snow removal

13 to contractors.

14 And that's all going to add up. So

15 we need to start budgeting for next year and

16 we're still waiting for them to come in and

17 show us their forecast. I believe they're not

18 done with their forecast for the next five

19 years for the budget for -- with PEL.

20 So I am requesting as requested in

21 the caucus earlier for their previous five year

22 forecast so we could see that. And finally,

23 the roads and the snow. There was a big storm.

24 I did actually go out and do a ride-along with

25 the drivers on Sunday from 6 to 10.
 32

 1 And I have to say our DPW employees

 2 work their tails off. I mean, in the truck is

 3 a whole different view. I'm -- with the wind

 4 blowing and the snow coming down, how many

 5 times they had to pull over just to get the ice

 6 off the windshield wipers.

 7 The had to get out of the truck to

 8 help a cop who was stuck. We pushed the car

 9 out. They go above and beyond. They help

10 neighbors when they see somebody pulled over.

11 They go down narrow streets. And, you know,

12 you go plow something and you come back and,

13 you know, people are blowing the snow in the

14 road. So they have a tough job.

15 They are told where to go, when to

16 go, how many people to go out, when to salt,

17 when not to salt. I mean, it made sense not to

18 salt when the snow was coming down and they

19 were plowing. But when the snow stopped, I was

20 still with them. They were told not to salt.

21 At the end of the night, the salt

22 was all stuck on the back of the truck when

23 they tried to get it off to put it back into

24 the salt shed, which that's another story. The

25 salt shed isn't as big as we're told it is.
 33

 1 So I would like to request from the

 2 DPW Director and administration what was the

 3 plan for this snowstorm? We all knew it was

 4 coming. We all knew it was probably going to

 5 be a big one. What was the plan, okay? What

 6 did we learn from it?

 7 And what did we plan for it, but I

 8 also want to know what we learned from it so

 9 when this storm is over, I expect a post storm

10 report, you know, what did we do well, what

11 didn't we do well, what did we plan for that,

12 you know, or what should we have planned for

13 better next time because we know another storm

14 might be coming over the weekend.

15 And it might cripple us with the

16 snow we have right now. I know there's

17 contractors out, you know, moving snow. And I

18 don't know where they're moving it to, but

19 they're doing a good job with. But our

20 employees do a great job. I think it's -- we

21 need to make sure we're planning correctly for

22 these storms. So I would like to have that

23 information.

24 As for the school district, I mean,

25 they just sent over an e-mail to the city with
 34

 1 I think it was like 30 pictures of roads that

 2 they cannot turn down with buses. All right.

 3 And that makes me think if a bus can't turn

 4 down, how does a fire truck turn down? How

 5 does an ambulance -- I mean, there's -- it's

 6 emergency services turning down those streets

 7 as well.

 8 Crosswalks not being -- the snow not

 9 being removed there for our students who have

10 to walk to school. So I know they are probably

11 planning trying to go back Thursday, but with

12 the pictures they've shown -- and that came at

13 the end of the day.

14 I just hope, you know, they're able

15 to focus on that to make sure that we could get

16 these kids to school safe. But also, you know,

17 get these other roads that are blocked on the

18 corners to make sure we have emergency services

19 come through. And that is all I have. So

20 thank you.

21 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Mr. Mark

22 McAndrew, do you have any motions or comments?

23 MR. MARK MCANDREW: I do, snow

24 removal. Turn my mic on. I'm jumping in on

25 snow removal. I'm here six plus years. I'm
 35

 1 living here 63 plus years. DPW always does a

 2 fantastic job. Some snowstorms are-- I've

 3 lived here for blizzards. I've lived here for,

 4 you know, for ice storms. And everybody wants

 5 their street plowed immediately.

 6 They want it crystal clean. You

 7 know, and it's not a reality. And I get it.

 8 And Joan made some great points, you know, in

 9 order to make the street safe, you're going to

10 take on a little snow in front of your house or

11 in front of your driveway.

12 And I think we're all used to it.

13 It shouldn't be a surprise anymore. And

14 Councilman McAndrew over here made a great

15 point. DPW do a great job, but it's by the

16 direction thereof, all right, the direction

17 thereof. They're told where to go. They're

18 told when to go. They're told how much to go,

19 how many hours you could do it, how many passes

20 you could make.

21 And it's funny we're talking about

22 this, and as we're sitting here, I get a e-mail

23 from a resident. And it's regarding her

24 street. And she lives on 100 Tracy Lane. It's

25 the corner of Tracy Lane and Kimberly Drive.
 36

 1 It's a cul-de-sac.

 2 We have been here for 12 years. We

 3 never had a problem with snow removal until

 4 this administration. She's testifying to this

 5 was elected and now it's a constant problem.

 6 So, like I said, they do a fantastic job but

 7 it's by the direct thereof.

 8 So, Mr. Gilbride -- Mr. Gilbride,

 9 I'm sorry. Mr. Voldenberg, they're still not

10 plowed out up there. All right?

11 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll send it out.

12 MR. MARK MCANDREW: It came through

13 on Sunday afternoon and it's not plowed, the

14 cul-de-sac since. There's 7 inches of snow in

15 the cul-de-sac. You know, she pays a lot of

16 taxes up there. I agree with her. She can't

17 dig herself out and shouldn't have to because

18 it's a city road if you could please, you know,

19 forward that to the DPW Department.

20 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.

21 MR. MARK MCANDREW: All right.

22 Thank you. Also, back in November, 725 Factory

23 Place -- there's a bunch of potholes that still

24 haven't been addressed in addition to the

25 e-mail I forwarded to you the other day, Mr.
 37

 1 Voldenberg, right, this is in addition to that

 2 if you could please see what happened.

 3 You know, we sent it over and a lot

 4 of times we think it's taken care of. But have

 5 to be reminded three months later by the same

 6 resident that it wasn't, and that's

 7 unfortunate.

 8 All right. So now I'm going to

 9 respond to a couple inquires that I sent over

10 that were prepared the 20th and then 27th

11 today. So I brought up about the HUP test.

12 And the response was, oh, you know, we sent

13 out -- the HUP test is a test to determine who

14 is really a nonprofit and who shouldn't have

15 that status anymore or should remain that

16 status.

17 It's based on criteria that they

18 have, okay? We brought this up or begged for

19 it I want to say more than two years ago, close

20 to three. And they are going to work in

21 conjunction with the county which was fine. We

22 agreed to that.

23 But, you know, I asked where we at?

24 And so last week, you know, our response was on

25 May, 2025, they sent out letters to all the
 38

 1 non-profits, you know, questioning or checking

 2 their tax exempt status. And then in September

 3 of '25, the Assessor's office process is in

 4 drafting a second letter to non-profits.

 5 So last September they drafted and

 6 sent a second letter to nonprofits that didn't

 7 respond to the first letter. All right. They

 8 said it took a little time because it was put

 9 on the back burner because of the reassessment

10 process to be completed. All right.

11 So with that said, okay, I want to

12 know if we could find out who didn't respond

13 the first time, Mr. Voldenberg, if you could

14 reexpand on their inquiry for who didn't

15 respond.

16 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr.

17 McAndrew.

18 MR. MARK MCANDREW: And why do they

19 require a second letter within two or three

20 years? It's ridiculous. All right. And then

21 secondly, where am I at here -- so last week I

22 asked about the LLC -- Social Contract, LLC,

23 the partnership with the county.

24 And the response is, you know,

25 they're getting them together. We're going to
 39

 1 bring them in which is great. I'm glad to hear

 2 that because I need answers because they want a

 3 new contract. And we didn't get anything yet

 4 to prove that it's warranted in my opinion,

 5 just my -- we'll see.

 6 Also, I asked about the parking lot

 7 on Main Avenue in West Side next to Lucchi

 8 Winery across from Vincenzo's, the one that

 9 NeighborWorks redid, who's responsible for the

10 snow removal on it. I know in years past DPW

11 would take care of it.

12 But like we said, by the direction

13 thereof. Right, so it's sitting there. It's a

14 mess. I drive by it every day. I go that way

15 to school. There's a lot of ice caked up

16 there. It's dangerous. It's dangerous. So

17 what I got back was patrons and, you know,

18 owners are complaining about this.

19 And they said the Parks Department

20 will address the West Scranton Business

21 District parking lot. Will it address it just

22 this one time and this was last week before the

23 huge snowstorm we got recently. So is this

24 something they're always going to take care of?

25 Can you clarify that for me or is
 40

 1 this something that DPW is supposed to do or

 2 they're going to. I think there's a little

 3 confusion here. Sometimes when two people are

 4 confused, nothing gets done. So I'm worried

 5 about that.

 6 So if we could for clarification

 7 sake, is that going to be their responsibility

 8 from here on out. And if that's the case

 9 because I know they hired two people as part of

10 the blight -- is this the blight people -- I'm

11 not sure of them positions. It might be the

12 ones responsible, so clarify.

13 And then will these same two people

14 take care of the weeds and the growth that that

15 happens around at planters there that is kind

16 of neglected that I hear about that people

17 bring to my attention.

18 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.

19 MR. MARK MCANDREW: So if that's

20 their responsibility, I'd like that clarified

21 for me. And that is all I have. Thank you.

22 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Mr.

23 Flynn, do you have any motions or comments?

24 MR. FLYNN: Yes, I do. Thank you.

25 You know, as the Chair for the Committee on
 41

 1 Public Works, I have to take a moment to

 2 address the most recent storm response. The

 3 amount of calls, texts, and e-mails that I got

 4 was overwhelming.

 5 I believe our residents deserve

 6 answers. I'd like to start by thanking our DPW

 7 workers. These men and women work long hours

 8 often overnight in dangerous conditions and

 9 they do an incredible amount of work for this

10 city every single day, not just during storms

11 but all year round.

12 With that said, we also must be

13 honest about what residents experienced during

14 this most recent snowstorm. The response was

15 night and day depending upon where you live.

16 Some neighborhoods received excellent service

17 while many others were barely plowed or not

18 plowed at all.

19 Contractors were brought in and

20 appeared to be focused exclusively on the

21 downtown area. That to me is not acceptable.

22 It's great that the downtown area was worked on

23 and cleared but what good is it if our

24 residents cannot get out of the their

25 neighborhoods and out of their houses to get
 42

 1 there.

 2 Just for an example, I live on a

 3 main street. I live on North Washington

 4 Avenue. The first plow I saw come past my

 5 house was 6 a.m., yesterday morning after the

 6 full day of snow at the corner of North

 7 Washington and Electric Street, that was the

 8 first time I saw a plow come by.

 9 As a Council, we need answers from

10 the administration about the storm plan, the

11 deployment of resources, the role of the

12 contractors and why some neighborhoods were

13 effectively left out until basically today when

14 they said that they're going to start really

15 focusing on South Side.

16 With another potential storm on the

17 horizon as my colleagues have talked about for

18 this upcoming weekend, we owe it to our

19 residents to make sure we learn from this and

20 we do better. So, Mr. Voldenberg, I have a

21 good deal of questions specific to ask the

22 administration:

23 How many plow trucks were on the

24 road? What areas were the trucks sent to? How

25 many trucks are dedicated to each neighborhood?
 43

 1 Were there any routes not covered? Do we

 2 pretreat the roads with salt? How many private

 3 contractors were used? And what were the

 4 routes they were given and what time the

 5 plowing operations begin in each specific area

 6 of the city?

 7 So I want to know when the snow

 8 started falling, where in the city were they

 9 deployed out, what time in each area? What is

10 the priority of order for the routes? And how

11 many trucks were operational during the storm?

12 So if we could get those answers, I'd really

13 appreciate it.

14 Hopefully we learn more before the

15 potential snowstorm this weekend. So also, I

16 got some responses as well to some of my

17 questions. One around the PA American Water

18 Company and what I refer to as the cluster

19 going on in neighborhood, Green Ridge with so

20 many streets shut down at the same time in such

21 close proximity.

22 A lot of my neighbors couldn't leave

23 Green Ridge. They were stuck there. And a lot

24 of the responses I got were around the pave

25 cuts and everything like that. But what I want
 44

 1 to know, Mr. Voldenberg, specifically, you

 2 know, they talked about in their response how

 3 permits are submitted through Open Gov with

 4 spatial information, automatic mapping and that

 5 the city uses extensive GIS tools to plot and

 6 compare projects, submitted permit locations

 7 and to track ongoing projects.

 8 They go on to say that in 2025 was

 9 the first full year of the implementation of

10 this and the city has authoritative and

11 accurate list of all permitted street

12 excavation work. So what I would like to know

13 was, was this on the city's end permitted to

14 happen in this close proximity at the same

15 exact time?

16 How did we allow that to happen?

17 And if not, what do we do as a city to make

18 sure this doesn't happen? My belief is that

19 it's all one utility company. If I'm wrong and

20 it's also the gas company as well, I'd like to

21 know that. They didn't specifically say

22 anything like that.

23 But I would really like to know from

24 the city perspective, especially considering we

25 have all of this great new software, how did
 45

 1 this happen in Green Ridge with all of these

 2 streets, like I said, Electric Street, Wyoming

 3 Avenue, Delaware, Penn, Capouse, Monsey, all

 4 being -- all the work being done there at once.

 5 How did this happen, especially with all of

 6 this new software.

 7 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask all of

 8 those questions.

 9 MR. FLYNN: The other response I got

10 was to something that I talked about last week

11 that's near and dear to me, the Unsheltered

12 Task Force and the code blue shelters and

13 trying to get some more resources in there

14 during this cold streak where we know that it

15 is open every day for the next couple weeks,

16 right, and if we could work with the county,

17 some of the drug and alcohol providers within

18 our area to maybe help individuals who are

19 there who may need an assessment, get to

20 treatment, some mental health assessments or

21 different ways that we could be innovative to

22 help individuals while they are there in one

23 centralized location.

24 And knowing that this is a timely

25 issue and the timeliness being that it's very
 46

 1 cold right now and they will be there every

 2 night, and, you know, I got to be honest. The

 3 response I got from the administration does not

 4 sit well with me at all.

 5 They said that they will bring it up

 6 at the next Unsheltered Task Force meeting

 7 which isn't until February 2nd. I was asking

 8 if we could get services into these shelters

 9 right now when we know where they're at. And

10 I understand it may take a few days. But this

11 was asked last Tuesday.

12 And they're telling us that they

13 can't respond to this until they bring it up at

14 the next meeting on February 2nd? You can't

15 send an e-mail to anyone else that I brought up

16 or to anyone else on the Unsheltered Task Force

17 and say, could we start having a conversation

18 around this?

19 I find that response to be

20 completely unacceptable. And I would like to

21 follow up with the administration and see if

22 there is anything we could do immediately to,

23 at least, get the ball rolling and

24 conversations started on this.

25 Finally, I think Joan brought up a
 47

 1 good point with the CBAs and the city website

 2 and they're just not up there. Every week I

 3 look and I see the responses to Council from

 4 the administration go up on the website

 5 immediately.

 6 As soon as we get e-mailed them,

 7 they're up on the website. So can we ask the

 8 administration if it's possible to update some

 9 of the CBAs and the other stuff on those

10 websites to be more accurate and up-to-date?

11 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll follow up

12 again.

13 MR. FLYNN: That's all I have.

14 Thank you.

15 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.

16 Mr. Voldenberg, I did send an e-mail over I'd

17 say within the last three weeks about the CBAs

18 and updating of the website. Did we ever get a

19 response on that or are we still waiting for

20 that?

21 MR. VOLDENBERG: They're working on

22 it. I'll request them.

23 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Thank you

24 very much. Everyone up here tonight had some

25 great questions. We all spoke about the snow
 48

 1 storm. And I want to start off by thanking --

 2 thanking DPW for the work that they do. Thank

 3 you to the police department, the fire

 4 department. They were also out on calls during

 5 inclement weather.

 6 One thing I think everybody was

 7 focused on here is, what was the feedback and

 8 what was the learning we got from this storm.

 9 We knew the storm was coming. We knew it was

10 going to be larger. Were we prepared for it?

11 How are we going to do it next time?

12 Between Mr. Sean McAndrew and Pat

13 Flynn, I think you covered most of the

14 questions that I had. Pat did ask about how

15 many plows. So I believe we have 15 plows.

16 Can we just clarify that it's 15 plows that the

17 city owns? And then, are all of those plows

18 operational?

19 And by that I mean, are they all

20 functioning? We may not have the men to fill

21 those plows on any given time, but are they all

22 functional or are some of those plows in need

23 of repair?

24 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll inquire.

25 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
 49

 1 When it comes to this next storm, how many of

 2 those plows will be on the road and do we have

 3 enough salt on hand for the next storm? And to

 4 follow up on that one, are we making the same

 5 salt purchases capacitywise for the last

 6 several years?

 7 So if we could just have our salt

 8 purchases for the last, say, six years. And

 9 are we purchasing the same amount each year or

10 has that salt purchase gone down?

11 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.

12 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.

13 I did get a lot of calls from East Mountain

14 today. I was getting a lot of calls from East

15 Mountain. I was getting calls for North

16 Scranton, West Scranton, Pat in Green Ridge, so

17 all over the city.

18 Some areas gave DPW five stars and

19 thumbs up. But I think there's still work to

20 be done here. I did have some questions last

21 week and I did get some answers. I did ask

22 about Open Gov. It's a contract that's going

23 to be coming up.

24 It's a rather large contract that's

25 going to be ending in April. I did get a
 50

 1 little bit of a response. I asked how platform

 2 was going, how much is public facing. And I

 3 got a pretty decent extensive answer on how

 4 many active users there are, how many

 5 departments in the city use the platform, etc.

 6 But one of the questions I really

 7 wanted to know was, is it possible to get --

 8 so, Mr. Voldenberg, just to specify the

 9 question, is it possible to get a copy of the

10 current contract or to either ask the

11 administration about the contract renewal.

12 I wanted to know about the contract

13 renewal. Was it in the original contract that

14 an autorenewal would occur unless either party

15 decided to end that contract within 30 days of

16 the end date? The contract is up in April.

17 Can we get a total cost of the platform for the

18 last five years?

19 And then can we get a total cost of

20 the platform for the next five years? I

21 imagine from the answer that I got the city

22 wants to continue to use the platform. And

23 with that being said, when is that going to

24 come in front of Council for approval?

25 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.
 51

 1 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.

 2 At some point in time when we talk about

 3 stormwater with what was going on in Keyser

 4 Valley over the last few weeks, there was talk

 5 about building a retention pond in Newton and

 6 they did talk about the possibility of some

 7 land that that pond would be built.

 8 I did ask the Mayor about it, but I

 9 didn't get a response. Frank, can we ask

10 what's the status of the retention pond located

11 in Newton that Scranton planned on building?

12 Thank you.

13 Back to snow removal, the city is

14 going to continue snow removal until Thursday.

15 And one thing I did see when I was out and some

16 of the workers that I spoke to had seen the

17 same thing. This was the first snowstorm that

18 I saw people were blatantly snow blowing snow

19 into the middle of the road.

20 Workers had seen it. Some of the

21 supervisors had seen it. I had seen it

22 firsthand. So if we could just remember,

23 please do not blow snow into the middle of the

24 roadway. It's dangerous.

25 We talk about a caucus with PA
 52

 1 Water. Mr. Voldenberg is working on a caucus

 2 brining them in. We did get a response back on

 3 Open -- was it Social Contract, they're working

 4 on a caucus for a Social Contract. So we have

 5 a couple caucuses that are going to be coming

 6 up. And with that being said -- go ahead.

 7 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: This came

 8 through and I have it in my notes, 700 block of

 9 Genet Street regarding the plowing. Can you

10 call that in or send it in?

11 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir.

12 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Thank you very

13 much.

14 MR. SCHUSTER: And as I said, East

15 Mountain was -- I was getting some photographs

16 from East Mountain as I was arriving here to

17 Council if they could focus on some of those

18 higher elevations. I know the hills in South

19 Side and around the hospitals are also in need

20 of plowing. Thank you. 5-B.

16 does have a Washburn Street address. Mr.

 5 MR. MARK MCANDREW: So moved.

 6 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Second.

 7 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question?

 8 Okay, on the question, I did bring it up in

 9 caucus. As we go for the vetting -- go through

10 the vetting process for individuals that may be

11 appointed to boards, we look at the Lackawanna

12 County Assessor's office for the ownership of

13 property. We look at real estate and whether

14 taxes are up to date.

15 We look if the refuse fees are paid

16 and also if there's some code enforcement

17 violations. When we do this, if the individual

18 lives in the city, this would come on these

19 records if they live in the county, property

20 ownership would come up on the county.

21 But if the individual lives outside

22 of the city, can we just ask would we find this

23 information? I assume the answer would be no.

24 But if we could ask anyway?

25 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr.
 56

 1 Schuster.

 2 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. With this

 3 individual, can we find out if he also lives in

 4 the city? We do redact addresses on our public

 5 documents. But can we find out if he does live

 6 in the city?

 7 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will.

 8 MR. SCHUSTER: And then do all the

 9 individuals have their -- have they all

10 submitted their financial interest statement

11 forms?

12 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll check on that.

13 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much.
