During Tuesday's Harrisburg city council meeting council member Sandra Reid read from a prepared statement related to her "Trash can donation program"

Is council member Reid talking about the trash problem in Harrisburg, or just trash talking?

Watch the videos of her comments:

Sandra Reid. Only 20 trash cans?

If your not part of the solution then you must be part of the problem. It is plain as the nose on my face.

Whats going on with the trash in Harrisburg? So when I asked two very powerful leaders of this community how they were going to support the trash can drive, they basically told me they were not.

Look at where the codes are being enforced. There are no children, low crime rate, and economic development is everywhere. This cannot just be a coincidence.

Petition to place York City School District into Receivership.

1 Dec
Monday @ 3:53 pm

As released by the Pa Department of Education.

Harrisburg – Acting Secretary of Education Carolyn Dumaresq today filed a petition with the York County Court of Common Pleas to place York City School District into receivership and appoint Dave Meckley as receiver.

“For nearly two years, Mr. Meckley has attempted to work with the school board to implement a financial recovery plan – approved by the board in June 2013 – that would ensure students have access to quality academic programs while restoring fiscal stability to the district,” Dumaresq said. “During this time, the board has consistently failed to follow the recovery plan and the directives of the chief recovery officer. It is now necessary for the district to be placed into receivership so the recovery plan can to be fully executed for the benefit of the students and to return the district to financial solvency.”

Under provisions of the School District Financial Recovery law, in December 2012, the Department of Education placed the district in Moderate Financial Recovery Status and appointed Meckley as chief recovery officer.

In creating the recovery plan, Meckley worked with an advisory committee, obtained input from the public and met frequently with the board, district and school administrators, teachers and staff to develop the plan.

Since the recovery plan was approved by the board in June 2013, the board has refused to implement the plan as required, leaving the district unable to advance academic achievement and begin fiscal recovery.

Dumaresq noted several areas in which the school board has failed to adhere to the financial recovery plan: taking action that is inconsistent with the plan, not specifically identified in the plan or not directed by the chief recovery officer as being necessary to implement the plan.

Today’s filing is supported by elected officials and business leaders throughout York County.
