CURWENSVILLE – One month after failing to take action in opposition of a proposed landfill’s traffic, Curwensville Borough Council took action on Monday night.
At last month’s meeting council heard a presentation by Clearfield County Commissioner Chairperson Joan Robinson-McMillen about the proposed landfill in Chest Township.
When the motion was made at that meeting to oppose the landfill traffic through the borough it died due to a lack of a second. The motion was made by Council member Sam Ettaro, who also noted at that meeting that someone going to Curwensville Lake would not know the difference between a waste truck or an ethanol plant truck.
On Monday Mark Curulla, council president, made a motion to send a letter to the county commissioners expressing council’s opposition to the proposed landfill traffic. Ettaro seconded the motion.
Council members Fred Sopic, Julie Girardi, Ettaro and Curulla voted in favor of the motion. Council member Holly Komonczi abstained due to a conflict of interest. Duane Wriglesworth voted against the motion.
