Southern Tier trails are a gem. Summit aims to take them to next level

A day-long Southern Tier Greenways Planning Summit, hosted by Parks & Trails New York, took stock of the greenway trail plans already in motion across the region and tackled what it will take to link them into a connected regional network. The event, held Nov. 5 at the Corning Museum of Glass, focused on the eight-county Southern Tier Regional Economic Development region, which includes Steuben, Schuyler, Chemung, Tompkins, Tioga, Broome, Chenango and Delaware counties. The event paired project updates from local and regional partners with hands-on working sessions on the challenges and opportunities ahead. Kamala Keeley, President of Three Rivers Development Corporation, said trails, waterways and parks aren't amenities on the side; they're part of what makes a region a place people choose to build a life. “When our employers recruit engineers, nurses, and skilled trades, candidates want to know what life looks like outside of work," Keeley said. "Every connected mile of trail strengthens our answer, and it helps us keep the talented people who are already here.” Keeley said the Southern Tier is losing population, particularly residents who are between 25 and 44 years old. Dylan Carey, Director of Policy and Planning at Parks & Trails New York,

Tioga County museum looks to a brighter future with $2.2M campaign

It has been a year of extraordinary bright lights for this writer as the executive director of the Tioga County Historical Society. I am so proud of our staff and cadre of volunteers who, once again, helped create some wonderful exhibits that were all tied into the 250th anniversary of the United States and Tioga County history. Each day, I would walk through the museum, turning on all the lights and marveling at the artifacts that would take the visitor back to the time of the indigenous people and carry them forward to today’s world. They shone a bright light on the rich history of all the communities that make up this county. During this time, the board of trustees of the Society voted upon my urging to begin a capital campaign to build additions to the museum building that would allow us to move our collections to the upper level – well above the September 2011 flood levels that had devastated the collections and research center. Using movable shelving on two sides of the building would allow for better climate control and protection of those items. However, all of this is expensive. Attempts had been made before, and those

Wade sworn in as Lycoming County DA after Marino resigns

Williamsport, Pa. — Lycoming County has a new district attorney following the abrupt resignation of the county's chief prosecutor this week. Former First Assistant District Attorney Martin Wade was sworn in Friday as Lycoming County’s new district attorney, succeeding Tom Marino, who resigned the same day, citing health concerns. Assistant District Attorney Phoebe Yates was also sworn in as first assistant district attorney. She is the first woman to hold the first assistant position in the history of the Lycoming County District Attorney’s Office. Under Pennsylvania law, the first assistant automatically assumes the district attorney’s office when the elected district attorney resigns mid-term. Wade will serve the remainder of Marino’s term, which ends in November 2027. The office will be on the ballot next year. Marino, 74, announced earlier this week that he was stepping down. In a letter to county residents, he described the decision as “a mix of sadness and gratitude” and said he was leaving “due to a combination of health reasons.” He had previously served as Lycoming County district attorney from 1992 to 2002 before becoming U.S. attorney for the Middle District of Pennsylvania and later serving multiple terms in Congress. Wade has been first assistant

East Lycoming school receives bomb threat same day as Union County school

Lairdsville, Pa. — Renn Elementary School was evacuated this morning after a bomb threat was called into the school, according to East Lycoming School District Superintendent Dr. Gregory S. Scoggins. A bomb threat was also made to Linntown Intermediate School in Lewisburg this morning. Police have not said whether the two incidents are related. The call came to Renn Elementary School at approximately 8:35 a.m. Pennsylvania State Police were contacted immediately, and the building was evacuated. Staff and school resource officers moved students safely to an off-site location, where they sheltered in place. When it became clear that state police K-9 units would need additional time to arrive and clear the building, the district began its parent reunification process. All students were either reunited with parents and guardians or sent home on school buses. Two bomb-sniffing K-9 units later completed a thorough sweep of the building and surrounding vehicles. The school was given an all-clear shortly after noon. Scoggins said no students or staff were injured. In a letter to families, Scoggins thanked district staff, Pennsylvania State Police and local law enforcement, the Lairdsville Community Volunteer Fire Company, St. Mark’s Church, the Lairdsville Cornerstone Restaurant, bus drivers, and parents and

Williamsport council accepts bid for vacant City Hall building 5-2

Williamsport, Pa. — Williamsport City Council voted 5-2 Thursday to accept the only bid that came in for the former City Hall building at 245 W. Fourth Street, and to move ahead with negotiating a sales agreement. Scott Williams, assistant director of community and economic development and planning, told council the city received a single bid for $455,000 when the invitation-for-bids period closed Sept. 30. After review, staff found the bid complete and compliant. The resolution accepts that bid and authorizes the city to proceed with a sales agreement. Solicitors will negotiate the details, and the finished agreement will have to come back before council for a separate vote. The building sits in the central business district and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It would be sold as-is. Terms expected to be worked into the agreement include protections against demolition or major exterior changes, along with a possible right of first refusal for the city if the buyer later decides to sell. The buyer is JBAS Realty of Jessup, owned by John Basalyga. JBAS has indicated it plans to renovate the building for residential use while keeping the exterior intact. The same firm submitted a higher

Williamsport ranks second in Pa. cities where young adults want to build careers at home

Williamsport, Pa. — More than half of young Pennsylvanians say they want to stay in or return to their hometowns to build careers, according to a new survey, with Williamsport ranking second statewide among cities where that commitment is strongest. A resume.io survey of 3,052 adults ages 18–35 found that 51% of young Pennsylvanians are committed to putting down professional roots in their hometowns. Family ties and lower costs of living topped the list of reasons, and those willing to accept lower pay to stay local said they would take an average 10.5% salary cut. The survey ranked cities by the number of respondents who said they planned to stay or return, with a minimum of 50 responses per city. The top three Pennsylvania cities were: ErieWilliamsportAltoona In Williamsport, technical education and manufacturing support skilled careers in the region.
