Hard to imagine that in this off-year, your vote could count for something really important. Besides the library initiative getting you to the polls, consider that legislature governing Marcellus shale drilling and our DRINKING WATER will wind up in Pennsylvania’s Courts. That’s why you should vote for Wecht and give his campaign a few bucks as well. In local elections ever dollar counts!

An eye opening meeting last night at the Jewish Community Center. Facilitated by our Councilman, Doug Shields, Squirrel Hill area residents aired their grievances to Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority, Nine Mile Run Association, ALCOSAN, and City of Pittsburgh Public Works. The big picture is: due to the consistent rise in temperature, northeast cities have seen an upswing in dramatic rainwater events – for which our city’s infrastructure is ill-equipped. Residents testified to cleaning up human poop from combined sewage run-off in their yards and in their homes.
