MILL HALL Mill Hall Borough Council is still looking for lifeguards to apply for open positions at its pool.
Council hired 13 life guards at its meeting Tuesday night, but needs a minimum of 16 to keep the pool’s operating hours the same. The pool is open noon to 6 p.m. all week during the summer season.
Pool Manager Lane Wallace previously told council she would need 16 life guards minimum to maintain the pool’s operating hours. However, she said she’d prefer 20.
Councilman John Gugliociello Jr. asked what would happen if the borough can’t find enough life guards for this season.

Reacting to complaints about people driving or riding recreational vehicles such as ATVs and dirt bikes whereever they want despite an existing ordinance restricting it council last week voted 5-1 to amend the law regulating the activity and adding a stipulation that requires neighbors’ consent.
The restriction was given tentative approval, not final adoption.
Voting for the amendment on Jan. 26 were Councilmembers Karen Houser, Dan McCloskey, Rainelle Wallace, Fred Bucheit and Karla Hoy.
Council President Anthony Walker voted no.
Councilman John Gugliociello Jr. was absent.
The council will need to vote again to adopt it as an amendment to the borough ordinance.
