David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Officer Huddleson attended the November meeting of the Conneaut Lake Regional Police Commission in order to impart the report in Chief Pfeifer's absence. He was also on hand to answer and/or explain questions and concerns put forth by said commission.

Sadsbury Supervisors Kevin VanHonk, Lyle Hoovler and Bonnie Smith were all in attendance as were Borough Council President Richard Holabaugh and Mayor Tim Kaider. Secretary Rose Mumau was also on hand. As was mentioned above, Police Chief Todd Pfeifer was unable to attend.

A brief discussion took place about the budget with Mumau saying that they are in the black for the most part. Winter tires have been placed on the vehicles by the time of this report and new tires are on the horizon for spring. Huddleson wasn't certain that winter tires had been utilized last winter because it had been mild.

Under New Business, a motion was made, seconded and carried to approve payment of the 2017 Solvency Fee for relief from charges. This is pursuant to PA UC Law for reimbursable employers and was in the amount of $511.70.
