10 Pennsylvania Fabric Shops Packed With Rare Finds, Colorful Bolts, And Old-Fashioned Sewing Supplies

One Lancaster County fabric store opens its doors at 7:30 in the morning, which means some sewists are browsing bolts before most people finish their coffee. Another shop in the same county stocks more than 6,000 bolts, and I can’t decide if that sounds like heaven or a very pleasant trap.

Letter to the editor: PPL president says data center costs shouldn’t hit customers

Pennsylvania is seeing extraordinary growth in data centers and other businesses that use large amounts of electricity. That growth can bring jobs and investment to our communities. But it also raises a fair question for families and businesses: Will my electric bill go up to pay for it? At PPL Electric Utilities, our answer is straightforward: we are doing everything we can to make sure that existing customers are protected from costs created by new large energy users. That principle is at the heart of our Customer Protection Framework, which is designed to make sure large energy users pay their appropriate share of the costs needed to connect them to the electric grid. And importantly, there are protections already in place today. As interest from data centers grew, PPL Electric was the first electric utility in the state to proactively establish a separate rate class called LP-6 for qualifying large-load customers. It was approved by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission in June 2026 and is specifically designed to protect other customers from financial risks associated with serving projects that require significant electricity and infrastructure investments. Under this rate class, large-load customers must make substantial financial and usage commitments before connecting

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
