This is how it works, Josephine

Remember this?  Baldwin's McNeilly Park Dan Miller sent me a map showing the boundary lines. I asked him about it yesterday.  I got it today.

Dan explained that the red corner of the property is in Baldwin.  It is in the lower right hand corner of the park. 

This is how it works, Josephine.  We had questions about McNeilly Park and we got answers.  I am still waiting to get a response from SOMEONE on the board about the 25 questions that I sent last Saturday, October 1. We have ten optimistic voters who believe you will answer our questions about the high school project.  In fact, five sincerely believe we will get nine individual responses from the board.

Thanks again, Dan.

Oh come on! Not again!!!

On the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Community Conservations Partnerships Program Grant Application Form, the Mt. Lebanon Soccer Association had pledged $125,000.  This sounds vaguely familiar.  Did that money ever come through?

On the application form, there are some points that have never been divulged publicly that suggest some unresolved issues.

On page one, section II, only Mt. Lebanon is listed as the project address; no mention of Baldwin Township.
Section III shows the MLSA pledge.

In Section V, number 2, another "Partnership" with Mt. Lebanon Youth Sports to develop the park was mentioned.  There was no mention of a recreation bond, where the "partnership" comes from our wallets.
Number 3 proposes expansion of the walking trail.

Section VII, number 9 indicates that no Federal funding will be accepted for this project. (See below.)

There is no mention of Baldwin Township on the final page.
