A Tale of Two Hanovers

This is a tale of two Hanovers. Hanover Township, Northampton County received two truckloads of road salt in July that Public Works Director Vince Milite never ordered. After an exhaustive investigation, he determined that it was actually intended for Hanover Township, Lehigh County, and sent it on its way. But he's now wondering why any township would order road salt in July. "Hanover Township, Lehigh County must know something we don't," he told Supervisors at their August meeting.

  1. Would think that ordering salt now would 1. be cheaper and 2. available. Waiting to the last minute could be more costly and depending upon demand, not easily attainable.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
