City solicitor staff cautioned the raw LCB data includes expired and suspended licenses, making it “a bit cumbersome” and requiring staff to filter active licensees before producing a clean map, the solicitor said. “They include all the expired ones and suspended ones. So we're having to pull through it,” the solicitor said, and reported the data arrived as a large spreadsheet.

Council members said the city's previous map extended to Harris Street and had a “wiggly” boundary that the LCB found difficult to follow. Solicitor staff said the team is likely to propose a simpler rectangular footprint to improve clarity for both the LCB and affected business owners, but emphasized that neighbors must be informed and that council must choose the lines.

Council discussion noted that new businesses have opened since the prior map was drafted, so the map will need to incorporate current active licenses. Legal staff said they expect to have a proposal for the council's next session and welcomed council input on boundary placement prior to that meeting. No formal vote or action was taken; the matter remains in progress and will return for further deliberation.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Harrisburg City Council - Legislative Session 4/8/2025","oneSentenceSummary","City solicitor's office reported it has obtained a comprehensive but cumbersome list of licensees from the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board and is preparing a clearer map for council consideration; councilmembers emphasized the need for a simpler footprint and neighbor notification.","taxTitle","Harrisburg, Dauphin, Pennsylvania","taxId",4675,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":42,"_43":77,"_45":77,"_46":78,"_48":79,"_50":80,"_52":81,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":82,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":83,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6592251,"Tri County Community Action previews 13th Great Harrisburg Litter Cleanup; city agencies to help supply trucks and disposal",1478000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2902022-a83861844d4d346f632e23a22a2248e7&start=1478&end=1478","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2902022-a83861844d4d346f632e23a22a2248e7/thumbnail_1478000.jpg","/articles/6592251/Harrisburg/Dauphin/Pennsylvania/Tri-County-Community-Action-previews-13th-Great-Harrisburg-Litter-Cleanup-city-agencies-to-help-supply-trucks-and-disposal","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6592251-aac0b02f0f8817601e43260a5f02ad72/orig.mp4?Expires=1771173063&Signature=LW2GnQg5mcpzLk91OkSb8XxLhUAoETu0qOw2wnLdExtvUeFGh7Y~XFNTC005ePFfkmSSZF~qCcUr5iuProhY797XTDqGrTEjnsNLfMzBajExlxSoZUD5J8qJhxAbKieDEYGWLKmLdFAH642-ZLG8XHOsdboKeVpjw-q19PvlJBSx5snt9Ge0WBhIjVw0o-XAD8Y6ig-g3jDJzt2dSPa~2PuducWmFsep9yGUpWu5Bicrq3mss2DZOIAL~xQ5iCQjTu9S7dwaEusTLfAsxV7RYd0x6f9-uBPtih2Tl3yUE3PcZeueA5~O1g43dyklLRt8BRxhipZ3MgKAdaH-5r6M-Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Tri County Community Action asked Harrisburg City Council to publicize the 13th annual Great Harrisburg Litter Cleanup, a one-day volunteer event in April that covers Allison Hill, Midtown and Uptown neighborhoods.

Liz Evans Scalfaro, revitalization coordinator for Tri County Community Action, told the council the event “draws hundreds of individuals and groups” and that last year’s volunteers removed about five tons of litter and roughly 600 passenger tires (about six tons of tires) from the waste stream. “We believe that winning the hearts and minds of young people will bring about lasting change,” Scalfaro said, describing school and church participation.

Scalfaro listed partners who help run the event: Harrisburg public-works supervisors and drivers, Capital Region Water (which provides trucks and workers), the Solid Waste Management Authority (which accepted collected trash at no charge at the Harrisburg incinerator), Waste Management, Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful, area churches and schools including Logos Academy and Lighthouse Christian Academy, and volunteers from Harrisburg Area Community College.

She said the city sustainability coordinator, Madeleine Good, was arranging donated snacks for volunteers and PennDOT supplied hundreds of trash bags, gloves and safety vests; Tri County also purchases additional supplies and volunteer t-shirts.

Councilman Rodriguez later reminded residents during new business that Hotspot Saturdays and the first cleanup date on April 19 will address Ethel Alley and meet at 17th and Market streets at 10 a.m.

Scalfaro left flyers for council members and offered to answer questions after the meeting.","Tri County Community Action presented details of the 13th annual Great Harrisburg Litter Cleanup, saying hundreds of volunteers typically remove multiple tons of trash and hundreds of tires; city sustainability and public-works partners will support the April cleanup around Earth Day.",{"_33":85,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":86,"_41":87,"_43":88,"_45":89,"_46":90,"_48":91,"_50":92,"_52":93,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":94,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":95,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6592256,"Council authorizes contract negotiations for OPEB actuarial services under GASB 75",497,2547000,3044000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2902022-a83861844d4d346f632e23a22a2248e7&start=2547&end=3044","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2902022-a83861844d4d346f632e23a22a2248e7/thumbnail_2547000.jpg","/articles/6592256/Harrisburg/Dauphin/Pennsylvania/Council-authorizes-contract-negotiations-for-OPEB-actuarial-services-under-GASB-75","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6592256-84cfc24cfd029a124442993044e76276/orig.mp4?Expires=1771173063&Signature=jeLqF~NmlX2Y0eGWWjG671A1RrLuqlQhezbXmUTNAnkNLHP18chM4ig1fuQtgq6Tfv8T4aOECOWaSRezAnDU9~N7xa0pWlg5Zw6nlLvS0ctMKMK1mvbbFsD-yJlrETv5g5NWLbgzsFSz2qjsFFTQ41OXLGMhAaRNbZ9GfhJQxyMTk2cV~etmDdW4TTfVnx49wUynem~SGP68DOCcAR3wQ8ewnFzG79q8vLh-EtBEoVDmWKFBzmFBqmhELq8UtuVpgo7e-i1-XSs5yDVaQIYG3TvJ4MopCAkm8iXqC4bD2EPWVTKuWALq~UqaBs6LHw0z9SQCkqkaKtoyNAHRqHwF0w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Harrisburg City Council voted to authorize staff to negotiate and enter a professional services agreement with Conrad Siegel Incorporated for actuarial valuations of other post-employment benefits (OPEB), as required under Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 75.

Vice President Green summarized the committee review during the budget and finance work session on April 1 and reported that the accounting manager, Mr. Bridal McCutchens, provided a thorough presentation. Green asked colleagues to support the resolution and no council questions were recorded during the legislative session.

The resolution as read into the record authorizes the city “to negotiate and enter into a professional services agreement with Conrad Siegel Incorporated to continue to provide actuarial services consisting of other post employment benefits, OPEB, valuations as required by the government accounting standards board statement number 75.”

Council members recorded a unanimous vote of six yays to zero nays, with Councilwoman Daniels excused. No amendments or conditions were recorded on the floor.

Director Enderline, speaking for the Fire Bureau, said the vehicle has been in the city's fleet since 1999 after the city acquired the 1997 Seagrave used from a local municipality. “It is the oldest rig in our fleet,” Enderline said, and the bureau preferred to sell it to a neighboring borough that had been using a loaned truck rather than accept a low trade-in offer.

Council suspended rules to allow discussion, then heard from Enderline and several council members; no substantive objections were raised. After roll-call voting the council recorded six yays and zero nays, with Councilwoman Daniels excused. President Bowers announced, “Resolution 17 of 2025 passes unanimously with a vote of 6 yays to 0 nays, including the excused absence of councilwoman Daniels.”

The resolution authorizes the sale of the fire bureau’s Seagrave pumper, VIN 1F9EK28T2VCST2067, to Highspire Borough for $2,000. Council members said the borough had “fallen in love” with the truck while it was on loan and that selling the unit would allow it continued service in an area with lower call volume.

No amendments or follow-up reporting requirements were recorded during the meeting.

Votes and motions related to the item were taken during the legislative session; the council both suspended rules to permit discussion and later formally voted to adopt the resolution.","City council approved Resolution 17 to sell an aging Seagrave pumper from the fire bureau to Highspire Borough for $2,000 after brief discussion; council voted 6–0 with one member absent.",{"_33":109,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":110,"_41":111,"_43":112,"_45":113,"_46":114,"_48":115,"_50":116,"_52":117,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":118,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":119,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6592264,"Residents urge Harrisburg City Council to demand transparency after alleged police incidents",519,1806000,2325000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2902022-a83861844d4d346f632e23a22a2248e7&start=1806&end=2325","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2902022-a83861844d4d346f632e23a22a2248e7/thumbnail_1806000.jpg","/articles/6592264/Harrisburg/Dauphin/Pennsylvania/Residents-urge-Harrisburg-City-Council-to-demand-transparency-after-alleged-police-incidents","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6592264-e144343727a4e64fdbc76512eb627765/orig.mp4?Expires=1771173063&Signature=EmoVsqZPJ5QxSKW4-kNWOd~aT~MQ65sIbR8MqOLIBhLK7hg69l7wzBr45gJG3oTkJfVLkY1Ecb323J81IdNWJuTl5Ym08IMOFl6joIu8zv~TuWD1YgHxGeGpcguhZoxOxej3SWh69G2ImtBTsWVqNaAQ-HjSSjc8Sz9MejBrYoz-QHQRts5099pRzvTfSBFdQgu~DwShNzrrFS81CqKbQK9lx5OfkJbyJAGMPu9fXA~2dO7kUrP4MQigVtblisOxaBh0kbPiVK~U9YtPu3c7SqcRVuBR-Ywv62XeuNoW5g0KgAooeH174Dy4XI8b1vD-VUKMmGQ9LfQN5oLG4u2P7w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Two Harrisburg-area residents used the council's public-comment period to describe separate encounters with city police and to urge City Council action on transparency and oversight.

Robert Williams, a resident of Capitol Heights, told the council that he believes he was the victim of “police misconduct” on Jan. 27 and said his repeated requests for records and updates have gone unanswered. “This silence is not neutrality. It's complicity,” Williams said, asking the council to intervene and take specific steps.

Williams asked council members to hold a public hearing through the public safety committee, invite testimony from the police chief and the city solicitor, demand access to body-worn camera footage and incident reports, and, if those records cannot be publicly released, to view them in executive session. He also asked the council to place the incident on a legislative agenda, immediately activate the city's citizen law enforcement advisory committee, and pass a formal resolution “demanding transparency.”

Earlier in the comment period, Naima Aiken described an interaction with Harrisburg police during which she said officers pulled her from her vehicle and handcuffed her despite her explaining she uses a cane and has a leg brace. Aiken said she was later treated at West Shore Hospital for elevated blood pressure and that her court paperwork referenced “the wrong officer.” During her remarks she repeatedly asked aloud, “What did I do? What did I do?”

Council staff and the meeting chair invited both speakers to meet with Councilman Jones, the public safety committee chair, after the session for follow-up. No council action or motion concerning either case was taken during the meeting; Williams requested that the council make the matter an official agenda item and pursue the oversight steps he outlined.

The speakers also said they had filed external processes: Williams reported filing Act 22 and right-to-know requests and obtaining a subpoena for body-cam footage; he said he still had not seen the footage or received incident or use-of-force reports. Aiken said paramedics treated her after the incident and that she paid a fine related to a traffic matter in which the officer named on the paperwork was incorrect.

Council members did not debate or vote on the requests during the legislative session. Councilman Jones, who chairs the public safety committee, offered to meet with Aiken after the meeting; Williams urged formal committee action and public hearings.

The public-comment appeals place pressure on the council to decide whether to pursue the oversight steps Williams recommended, including whether to request or review restricted records in executive session.","Two residents described separate alleged police encounters and urged the City Council to pursue public hearings, access to body camera footage and formal oversight; one speaker asked the council to activate a citizen advisory board and place the matter on the legislative agenda.","actionData","errors"]
