Nittany Antique Machinery Association Launches Fundraising Campaign to Purchase Its Own Property

Facing an uncertain future for its longtime leased space at Penn's Cave and Wildlife Park , the Nittany Antique Machinery Association has launched a fundraising campaign to acquire its own permanent home and create an affordable community space for other organizations. The association is looking to raise $800,000 to secure a property, saying it "has reached a point where it can no longer depend on the uncertainty surrounding its relationship" with Penn's Cave, where it has hosted its antique machinery shows for 51 years. "Despite efforts to negotiate a mutually agreeable lease renewal under the terms of its existing agreement, NAMA believes the discussions have not reflected the good-faith negotiations necessary to provide the Association with a stable and sustainable future," the association wrote in a news release. William Burnett, attorney for NAMA, told StateCollege.com that the organization has identified a potential property, but that they were not ready to disclose the location until it is under contract. "Discussions have gone well between the seller and the team at Yocum Realty," Burnett said. NAMA's current five-year lease expires at the end of this year and the organization previously said it had notified Penn's Cave in August that it planned to

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.

Chambersburg's Southgate sold to apartment-building developer

A York-based real estate development company plans to invest $40 million to build six, three-story apartment buildings with a total of 178 residential units in what is now Chambersburg's Southgate shopping center. Chambersburg Town Council approved a sale agreement on Monday, Nov, 2, between Inch & Co. and the Chambersburg Area Municipal Authority, the volunteer board that owns the westside shopping center. The sale, which is for the remaining 69% of the approximately 14-acre property, puts the borough's long-sought dream to redevelop the struggling retail district into a mixed-use neighborhood on the road to reality. Inch & Co.'s plan aligns with a concept a borough committee developed with stakeholder input, which envisioned multi-family residential buildings rising in what is now a largely unused parking lot. The agreement also requires the development company to take over the commercial spaces and leases. "By the end of 2028, this will be completely done," said Joe Eisenhauer, vice president of development for Inch & Co. What will the redeveloped neighborhood look like? Eisenhauer said he had seen the borough's request for proposals a number of years ago. It was not the right time for the company then, but today "it's the perfect fit," he

Proposed 2027 State College Budget Includes Real Estate Tax Increase

State College Borough is poised to raise its property tax for a third consecutive year. The borough's proposed 2027 budget includes a three-mill tax increase, a 12% hike that would bring State College's total millage to 27.88 mills. The tax increase, which is one mill more than that implemented for 2026, is part of a $72.2 million fiscal plan presented on Friday afternoon as Borough Council began its weeks-long budget review. For a home with a present-day market value of $300,000 and no homestead exclusion, the increase would equal $147.54 for the year, while with the exclusion it would be $72.54. For a property with a $500,000 market without the homestead exclusion it would mean an additional $245.90, or $170.90 with the homestead exclusion. The increase would generate $1,821,063 in new recurring revenue for a borough budget that remains structurally unbalanced for the seventh consecutive year. The total proposed budget includes $72,249,482 in expenditures — which is only $12,742 more than the approved 2026 budget — with revenue of $62,357,539, about $1.8 million more than 2026. It uses $9,891,943 of fund balances, as is typical. Within the overall budget, the general fund budget, which more directly represents current expenses and
