The Pennsylvania State Association of Boroughs (PSAB) established and fostered a program that encourages Boroughs to have a high school or college student, that is a Borough resident, participate in the workings of local government.
Mayor Judith T. Wagner was instrumental collecting and organizing the necessary information in order for the Borough to become a participant of this program. At the Borough’s reorganization meeting held January 2nd, the Borough adopted a resolution authorizing participation in PSAB’s Junior Councilperson Program, and Ezra Buonopane, a Lewisburg High School student, was administered the Junior Councilperson Pledge and appointed by Council to serve as the Borough’s first Junior Councilperson.
Please see the photograph from that evening.
On January 2, 2018 a reorganization meeting of Council was held.
