As hearing approaches, Probst highlights impacts of I-80 project

On a recent afternoon, state Rep. Tarah Probst (D-189th District) took a drive through Stroudsburg with constituent services adviser Jessica Smith to highlight just a few of the spots that the Interstate 80 widening project has already impacted. And there are bound to be even more issues if the project proceeds, Probst said, especially with the elimination of the Dreher Avenue exit. The representative places the blame on the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation for failing to do its due diligence in evaluating the properties which fall in the way of the widening project. “This has been going on since I was the mayor, and Stroudsburg Borough has been fighting it now for over 10 years. [PennDOT] just didn’t do their job,” said Probst, who this month won a third term in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. “They didn’t do an environmental impact statement — they took it in three sections, so they didn’t have to do that. And for whatever reason, I guess they believe that water doesn’t have connectivity.” Probst said the borough paid about $2,000 to conduct the studies on property near Bryant Street — a part of the next phase of the project — which confirmed “not

Faster Storm Intensification Could Pull Cold Air Into Northeast Pennsylvania and Bring Accumulating Snow to the Poconos and Schuylkill County Friday Morning

PENNSYLVANIA — A coastal storm taking shape off the Mid-Atlantic coast could have a bigger impact on northeast Pennsylvania if it strengthens quickly. A decent supply of cold air sits to the north, and a faster-developing storm could pull some of that colder air into the region. Accumulating snow is not the most likely outcome, but it could start showing up on forecast models for the Poconos, Schuylkill County, and areas to the northwest.

Fairways & Mulligans to offer premium virtual golf in Monroe County

It may be getting too chilly to hit the greens, but soon, avid golfers will have an opportunity to test their swings year-round in the Poconos with the opening of Fairways & Mulligans Golf Lounge in Middle Smithfield Township. The latest third space to hit the region, Fairways & Mulligans , which sits at 4545 Milford Road, East Stroudsburg, aims to be the premier indoor golf, augmented-reality darts, and cocktails and casual dining hot spot in the Poconos. Stepping into the doors, the dark leather couches and seats, cozy chandelier lighting, and elegant bar set a luxurious, but accessible, vibe. As CEO and co-founder Vince Lanni put it, the intent for Fairways & Mulligans – which is also backed by COO and co-founder Ken Tumsuden and Chief Development Officer and partner Eric Rylka – is to be a social spot for golf enthusiasts to enjoy a few rounds or some practice no matter what the weather is, all while enjoying quality time with friends, family, and some good food and drinks. And while fans of Topgolf or X-Golf may find the idea strikingly similar, Lanni said his team wants to provide a distinctly different experience. Lanni said that locations such

YMCA lawyer says project is approved, but Cherry Ridge Township doesn't

One year after the conditional use hearing for the Wayne County YMCA building project started but was never completed, the project was deemed approved by the applicant’s attorney, Mark Zimmer, who alleges a failure by Cherry Ridge Township. The township, however, says otherwise, and the whole matter may end up in court. Zimmer said in his public notice that this action is required under state law “due to the Board's failure to conduct or complete the required hearing.” The new home for the YMCA, pending other permit approvals, is being planned south of Honesdale on a field just off Route 191 along Spinner Road. If built, the Y will move from its present location at 105 Park Street in the borough, and be able to offer indoor swimming, daycare, a running track and other expanded amenities. After the hearing in August had to be postponed because the site had never been posted advertising the hearing, it was rescheduled for Oct. 21. This time, the hearing was properly posted at the site. Although the YMCA’s attorney contends the project is approved by default, the township board nevertheless went through the formality of the hearing, although it lasted only about 16 minutes.

Longtime Honesdale funeral home closes with Bryant’s retirement

Arthur A. Bryant Funeral Home at 1228 N. Main St., Honesdale, closed on Nov. 6, capping over 80 years in business. The closure of one of Honesdale’s two funeral homes came with the retirement of longtime owner Arthur “Art” A. Bryant, who chose not to sell his business. The family business was started by his father, Arthur “Bud” E. Bryant, who began his career in the 1940s and opened the funeral parlor at this location. Art Bryant became a licensed funeral director in 1979. A press release states, “With recent health challenges and a cancer diagnosis, the decision to close his practice has not come easily. Rather than simply selling the business to another Funeral Director, Bryant has chosen to personally recommend that the families who have entrusted him with their care turn to Edward R. Howell, owner and operator of Howell Family Funeral Home, Inc., in Waymart.” “Edward is no stranger to the families I have served. He knows nearly all of them personally. He is a well-known, respected, and trusted Funeral Director who has deep roots in this community.” Bryant said in the press release. “I know his character, his commitment to this profession, and I have complete
