Other code revisions discussed

Sadsbury Township Supervisors officially adopted a storm water management act that has been in the works for quite some time.

The adoption of such came after months of negotiations, revisions and general upheaval with many area supervisors being against some of the provisions.

Supervisors Roy Whaley and Kevin VanHonk have both been outspoken in terms of the new rules having a negative effect on any new construction or household improvements in the township.

The whole process was set in rapid motion when the DEP, (Department of Environmental Protection), let it be known that they would be cracking down on the part of “Stormwater Management Act 167,” having to do with the residential aspect.

Conneaut School Board of Education members were screamed at by Joe Yeager, the school district's recently retired business manager when the directors met last Wednesday evening.

Yeager, speaking during visitor recognition, was one of three who addressed the board during their regular monthly meeting which was held at Conneaut Valley High School, the board's usual meeting place during the month of April.

The three speakers fly in the face of a headline elsewhere that said vocal residents pack budget meeting. There were roughly 40 in attendance with about half school district employees.

Yeager began his speech with a "We the people"phrase that he used throughout, saying at first that We the people began an important document about 200 years ago. He screamed that we the people are seeking your solutions for the school budget and we the people demand no tax increase.
