Tyrone Preliminary Budget Includes Tax Increase

Tyrone Borough Council members approved a preliminary 2027 spending plan that includes a proposed 0.5-mill property tax increase aimed at stabilizing the municipality’s long-term finances. Reportedly, under the proposed budget, general fund revenues are projected at roughly $4.5 million against approximately $4.2 million in estimated expenditures.

Can Centre County expect its first snowfall this weekend? What to know

Centre County has enjoyed an unusually warm fall, but that appears to be coming to an end — at least for a weekend. Temperatures in the State College area are predicted to approach freezing Friday night and dip below freezing at around 26 degrees Saturday night. But, despite early forecast models that prematurely predicted several inches of snow, AccuWeather meteorologist Alex DaSilva said there likely won’t be any significant snowfall in Happy Valley. It’s still possible, DaSilva said, that State College might technically record its first snowfall of the year Friday into Saturday. But, with minimal precipitation, he’s projecting it would likely amount to one-tenth of an inch or a trace of snow, the latter of which would technically not qualify as the season’s first snowfall because it must be a measurable amount. “I’m not ruling that out,” DaSilva told the CDT, referring to a measurable one-tenth of an inch. “I just don’t think people should expect to wake up Saturday morning, look outside and see white.” Last year, the first measurable snowfall came Nov. 10 at a half-inch. In 2024, it was Nov. 24. And, in 2023, it was Halloween on Oct. 31. If locals don’t experience a measurable

Big Dean’s Hot Chicken to Close in Downtown State College as Owners Plan ‘New Concept’

Downtown State College soon will have one fewer place for chicken tenders. Big Dean's Hot Chicken , 208 W. College Ave., will close on Nov. 25 after five years in business, according to signs inside the restaurant thanking customers for their patronage. The signs encouraged customers to "visit Dean's staff down the street at Snap Custom Pizza," which shares the same ownership, and "at our new concept opening in Spring 2027." The director of operations for Big Dean's and Snap told StateCollege.com that the new concept restaurant will open in the current Big Dean's location, but deferred questions to co-owner and founder Peter Howey, who did not respond to a message seeking comment on Wednesday afternoon. Big Dean's Hot Chicken opened in 2021, offering award-winning chef Dean Dupuis' Nashville Hot, Inferno and homestyle fried chicken in tenders and sandwiches. Selections also come with a choice of sauces, such as BD's Signature and Tennessee Sunshine BBQ, Texas toast, cole slaw, crinkle-cut fries and homemade pickles. Sandwich varieties include BBQ, Buffalo, hot honey and classic, while dessert offerings feature Tennessee mudslide and banana pudding. The State College location was the first for Big Dean's Hot Chicken, which last year opened a shop
