Moravian College Ponders Track Meets at Bi-Centennial Park

Chair Roger Unangst
Though Moravian College is a Bethlehem school, it is considering Bicentennial Park for track meets this spring. Parks and Recreation Director Chuck Franz told Supervisors at their meeting last night that several high schools are already using the park for track meets. What they like is that they can see the students at all times, and consider the venue to be relatively safe.

Bicentennial Park, located along the Nor-Bath Trail between Northampton and Bath, is in my view the most beautiful park in Northampton County, with plenty of opportunity for both passive and active recreation.

I've been to Bicentennial Park on numerous occasions, but this was my first visit to an East Allen Board of Supervisors' meeting. About 20 residents and all Supervisors were present. There are two opportunities for the public to speak at these meetings, although no one exercised it. But at times, during different parts of the meeting, Chairman Roger Unangst involved the public, asking questions.

The Township is still cleaning up from Wednesday night's downpours, during which a sinkhole blossomed at Osage and Towanda. A cement truck will fill the hole (with cement) at noon today.

The Township is doing a comparison of health insurance costs at different municipalities.

      I was there bc I want to visit every municipal meeting in the LV at least once before I die and I was also curious about something that I determined is no story.

    Just to clarify, are they putting the whole truck in the sinkhole or just the concrete?

    As a life long resident change is needed on the Board. They need individuals with a vision to bring sound growth and development and not keep raising taxes because of lack of growth. Look at the municipalities that surround us, all prosperous and with 1/2 the taxes. The two new females on the board lack common sense and need to get an understanding of their responsibilities and not their personal agendas.

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.

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.
