The New Brighton Borough Council held their monthly meeting tonight and discussed a few different things. One member of the community attended the meeting to voice his opinions on the property at 909 Harmony Avenue, that is slated to be demolished. He would like the chance to rehabilitate the property and said “it would be a shame to tear it down”.  Another topic of discussion was a roof in need of repairs at the Waste Water Treatment Plant.  Borough Manager Tom Albanese  stated that they would like to install an umbrella roof at a cost of 21,867 dollars. Also discussed was an agreement for the New Brighton Little Lions to utilize the practice facility at Oak Hill Field for the 2021 football season and a request by a resident to close 6th Avenue from 5th street to Strawberry Alley on a day in June for a graduation party.  A request was also made by Council Member Jay Glover to begin discussions of adding a new shelter to Big Rock Park.  Audio from the meeting can be heard below:
