Four counties awarded funds to create outdoor rec plans

Lewisburg, Pa. — SEDA-COG will receive $187,100 in grants to prepare a multi-county greenway plan for Columbia, Montour, Northumberland, and Snyder counties. Mount Carmel Borough in Northumberland County will receive $19,500. Community Conservation Partnerships Program (C2P2) grants, funded by the state departments of Conservation and Natural Resources and Community and Economic Development, are meant to fund projects that help communities improve parks and playgrounds, build and repair trails, conserve open space, restore rivers and watersheds, and grow local economies through outdoor recreation. Mount Carmel Borough will use its grant to prepare a master site development plan for the quarter-acre Oak Street Park, which will establish a framework for the site’s future development as a neighborhood recreation and gathering space. The plan will include an electronic written report and site development drawing. Supported by SEDA-COG, the borough’s planning effort will help it evaluate community needs, establish design priorities, and prepare for future funding opportunities. The work complements ongoing environmental assessment through EPA brownfields resources, helping coordinate site investigation with park planning and future redevelopment. “The project advances Mount Carmel’s broader revitalization efforts by laying the groundwork for a welcoming public space that benefits residents and strengthens the surrounding neighborhood,” said Betsy

Defense calls Lycoming DA 'racist' in bid to block death penalty

Williamsport, Pa. — During a pretrial hearing Thursday in the capital murder case against accused murderer Troy Bennett Bailey, his attorney doubled down on arguments calling Lycoming County District Attorney Tom Marino a racist as the defense sought to remove the death penalty. The hearing before President Judge Eric R. Linhardt addressed several motions filed by Bailey’s public defender, Jeana Longo. Those included a request to remove the death penalty, to obtain recordings from the Lycoming County Prison, and a request for the layout of the prison. The prison requests involve Bailey's alleged co-conspirator Muhammad Davis, who was lodged in Lycoming County Prison before being transferred to state prison on unrelated charges. Both men are accused in the plot to kidnap and kill Bailey's ex-girlfriend and her co-worker in 2024. The defense claims Davis admitted he was the shooter to another prisoner via the plumbing pipes that run throughout the facility. The primary argument was the defense’s effort to take the death penalty off the table, with Longo referencing comments Marino made in a July interview with the Atlanta Black Star. In that interview, reported by the Atlanta Black Star, Marino said: “In the Black community … there’s no supervision

Substantial Commercial Royalty Streams Terminate Section 501(c)(7) Social Club Status

Consolidated Sportsmen of Lycoming County v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2026-109, October 29, 2026. Tax-exempt social clubs operating under Internal Revenue Code (I.R.C.) § 501(c)(7) frequently generate revenues outside member dues, ranging from investment income to third-party facility leases and natural resource exploitation. A common misconception among tax advisors and exempt organization managers is that passive or third-party commercial activities—where club members spend virtually zero physical labor or administrative hours—do not count as non-exempt “activities” of the club for qualification purposes.

Group hopes to end legal venue shopping for civil cases

In 2023, a Philadelphia jury ordered Mitsubishi to pay nearly $1 billion to a New Hope man, a quadriplegic who was injured in a 2017 accident. The huge verdict was front-page news. When an appellate court vacated it two years later, not so much. Should the case have been tried before a Bucks County jury rather than in Philadelphia in the first place? The accident happened in Buckingham Township.
