Sidewalks in the general area of Mt. Lebanon near Foster Elementary School are getting an upgrade.
A resolution approved Tuesday by Mt.

Property owners, as the parties responsible for the sidewalks, will be assessed for the cost involved. The municipality pays for work on land it owns.
Commissioner Craig Grella voted against the measure. During the discussion session preceding the regular commission meeting, he and some of his colleagues questioned whether the municipality could foot the entire bill.

We urge you to vote yes on the Climate Action Plan warrant article No. 14 at Town Meeting at 2 p.m. May 8. If you consider the climate-driven catastrophes looming during our probable life spans, you will understand why, especially for those of us in our 20s, climate change has become the defining issue of our lifetime. Unless we dramatically change course, climate change will inflict unfathomable violence on our environment and horrific suffering on our fellow human beings. Older folks shrink from trying to imagine it; younger people will live to see it firsthand.
