Residents from Gaysport thanked the council for continuing efforts to reduce flooding and asked the borough to keep the project on future agendas. Gerard Veil of 109 Bedford Street and Elder Booth of 141 Bedford Street commended council and the Sewer Authority for planned measures including a stormwater retention pond and removal of storm drains from a combined sewer in Lower Gaysport.

Borough staff reported the phase‑1 historic resources report for the Gaysport mitigation site was submitted to the State Historic Preservation Office on May 22; the office has 30 days to respond and staff expect it may take the full review period. Staff said they will notify council if a phase‑2 study is required — a development that can delay work.

Separately, council approved Resolution 2025‑19 to reallocate CDBG funds that were originally assigned to pay for a fence at the Stoll Farm stormwater detention pond. Because those CDBG funds (from a 2021 allocation) would expire in February 2026 if not spent, the borough will redirect them to removal of architectural barriers and new curb projects at a list of intersections and sidewalks. Council said future annual allocations will allow the borough to construct the pond fence later if needed.

The curb and barrier removal projects named in the reallocation include Mulberry and Wayne Streets, Jones Street next to Hometown Market, Allegheny and Jenny Streets, Jenny Street and Strawberry Alley, Allegheny and Condren Streets, Park and Hewitt Streets, and Union Street in front of the junior high. Council and staff emphasized the reallocation preserves the use of the original funding stream while ensuring the borough does not forfeit money that would otherwise expire.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Council Meeting of June 12th, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Council heard resident pleas to continue Gaysport stormwater projects, received an update that the state historic preservation office is reviewing phase‑1 findings, and approved a CDBG reallocation that redirects expiring funds to curb and barrier removal projects while preserving future options for the stormwater pond fence.","taxTitle","Hollidaysburg, Blair County, Pennsylvania","taxId",71798,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6199983,"Residents urge action after pit‑bull attack; Hollidaysburg council to add dog enforcement and sidewalks to next agenda",320,1759054,2079370,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3820150-e1f72ba216460e4c0ebfb681c887d3fc&start=1759&end=2079","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3820150-e1f72ba216460e4c0ebfb681c887d3fc/thumbnail_1759054.jpg","/articles/6199983/Hollidaysburg/Blair-County/Pennsylvania/Residents-urge-action-after-pitbull-attack-Hollidaysburg-council-to-add-dog-enforcement-and-sidewalks-to-next-agenda","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199983-992c00fd1cdaf21db3abc942cde23aaa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771186749&Signature=i0O4QFmJv4cgsptw82FQ~AGoZ7raKRxK2e~QjM5nrczOvfIYV1anM5poj-H2LGWsSOGr6AQ3~ffigtBCdzjesjdV6s9Q3Tm9nKGklvPz9YU6vWrHYfcM2rVqOeM6QxWhhSqfK0lpbi1MX~k-Wc1t9Kw9ULmBalndZsi6pB3MrXE9zn3PG1v4jSsvGz40k6BCxYhrbz5sYoe8q-MvVMBwNYDyAISUtBnoKQbNBYsJ8umJ1gXtajJen-NFKxeyVdCjNF9PnTqJZTb1khSNXQZ1VIZeWNn~bnOsK-noNF3CIqkKo01edVK1WaLR5AnGLjqCO5h883LfOgdTrpk1OA6inw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Several Hollidaysburg residents told borough council they want the borough to address public‑safety risks from loose dogs and deteriorated sidewalks after a resident reported being attacked by a dog on June 4.

Chad Repco, who lives at 710 Garber Street, described walking near the golf course the morning of June 4 when “a pretty big dog” — he said a pit bull — attacked and latched onto his dog’s neck. Repco said his dog suffered “between 20, 25 puncture wounds” and that Hollidaysburg police responded quickly. “I just want people to be aware,” Repco said.

Resident Shirley Fair, 805 Hickory Street, said she and neighbors walk daily but often must use the road because sidewalks are “in such bad repair.” Fair said she has fallen on damaged sidewalks and asked the borough to enforce sidewalk and snow‑removal codes. Council members noted a borough sidewalk cost‑share program that returns 25% of the homeowner’s cost for sidewalk replacement and urged residents to apply.

Council responded by agreeing to place “dog enforcement” and sidewalk maintenance on the next meeting agenda. A council member said they are waiting for a response from the county dog warden and acknowledged county enforcement covers the whole county and has limited capacity; the council said it would explore what local measures the borough can take.

Speakers asked the borough to consider petitions or other enforcement tools for properties with aggressive dogs and to communicate options for residents. No formal action or ordinance change was taken at the meeting; council directed staff to bring the items back for discussion at the next meeting.","Residents described a June 4 dog attack and ongoing sidewalk disrepair at a council meeting; council members said they will place dog enforcement and sidewalk concerns on next month’s agenda and follow up with the county dog warden and borough code staff.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6199988,"Hollidaysburg council approves conditional use for cage‑free dog groomer at 208 Union Street",373,462415,835710,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3820150-e1f72ba216460e4c0ebfb681c887d3fc&start=462&end=835","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3820150-e1f72ba216460e4c0ebfb681c887d3fc/thumbnail_462415.jpg","/articles/6199988/Hollidaysburg/Blair-County/Pennsylvania/Hollidaysburg-council-approves-conditional-use-for-cagefree-dog-groomer-at-208-Union-Street","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199988-f72e9ab16ab8c2144e11ca8b3d056620/orig.mp4?Expires=1771186749&Signature=WrxyMe5XPNgu6x97T-CuPyT~-fFRIDpKYptviDYCV0yI9N4AYjKR5Ut2lu3zlkRA1s9maSgzNCIncJChZjODIozpTGtV8mIkH1ua8hQD5QT9k4SdU6SOp4icpaU5s6RNPkmSK9gRmR8jTftu4UZkGZAtNKZeSIPnNEcKYGcO6AQ9SuYiy3SZlPI-NWGYjX19nMFN~42HCdzkBn0ZeE3hsHWFLxpDhNDRYFaAnW4lwQp8ZlXqVG8QJ~kShPRspCxe8AvN8sWxFrohx-pPrCLWlBvKN4EDhpkU928tFs59~Fk4XKMh9hR4Q5K~P3aPhuhseW5pSn27oIxUCozUQdbBhg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Hollidaysburg Borough Council approved a conditional‑use permit allowing Citrine Holistic Canine Parlor to operate at 208 Union Street, subject to standard conditions including compliance with zoning for any future changes and written acceptance of the conditions by the applicant.

The hearing was held after borough staff confirmed the application, filed May 7, 2025, had been advertised and the property posting and certification met ordinance requirements. Andrew Hladnik, the borough’s director of community development, told the council the application was complete and that the borough planning commission reviewed the request and recommended approval, finding no negative impact on the RV zoning district.

Owner Brogan Harr told the council she operates a “cage‑free” one‑on‑one grooming business, uses U.S.‑made organic hypoallergenic products and typically schedules clients about 30 minutes apart. Harr said the 208 Union Street site has a large parking lot but she expects only one vehicle on site at a time and that the business “won’t alter the character of the neighborhood.”

Attorney Carn (counsel to the borough) and Hladnik proposed conditions the council later read into the record: any change from a dog‑grooming parlor to another use would require a new conditional‑use application; any exterior or building changes must comply with applicable zoning and require separate approvals; signage must comply with the zoning ordinance; and the applicant must sign a written acceptance of those conditions or the approval would be deemed a denial. No members of the public spoke for or against the application during the hearing.

Council members moved to approve the conditional use with those conditions; the motion carried. The council asked counsel and staff to prepare findings of fact and conclusions of law and to present a final decision for the applicant’s signature at the next procedural step.

The approval does not authorize any work beyond the approved use: building alterations, new signage or a change of use will require additional reviews and approvals as required by the borough zoning ordinance.

The council’s hearing record includes the completed application, advertising affidavits and the planning commission’s recommendation.","Hollidaysburg Borough Council granted conditional-use approval for Citrine Holistic Canine Parlor at 208 Union Street, with conditions that changes of use, building alterations or signage must meet zoning rules and that the applicant sign an acceptance of the conditions.","actionData","errors"]
