Established in 1953, HHSDR has completed hundreds of facility and feasibility studies, and master plans for educational, municipal and private organizations throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The authors are: J. Greer Hayden, AIA, NCARB, PE and President John J. Carly, Site Planner and Associate Joseph A. Jendrasiak, RLA Frank Gargiulo The Master Plan was formally presented to City Council at its regular meeting on September 25, 2008, and was formally adopted by City Council at is regular meeting on November 13, 2008. The purpose of the Bicentennial Park Master Plan is to guide the City of Sharon as it considers reinvestment of resources into the Park. The Master Plan consists of two parts; this narrative report, and the site plan. The narrative report is organized to follow the requirements of the State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (PA DCNR), which provided a grant to the City of Sharon (#BRC-TAG-13-206). The existing and proposed site plans are summarized on two separate pages in this report, but detailed plans are also presented on larger format paper for ease of review. The plans include the location of a sewer installation (completed in 2009) which occurred along the length of Bicentennial Park. This project was financed in part by a grant from the Community Conservation Partnerships Program, Keystone Recreation, Park and Conservation Fund, under the administration of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and National Resources, Bureau of Recreation and Conservation. The Plan could not have been completed without the assistance of the following: City of Sharon - Mayor, Council, Department Heads and Beautification Commission Connelly Manor - Residents and Staff Greater Sharon Associates Kurtanich Engineers & Associates, Hermitage Mercer County Conservation District Mercer County Regional Planning Commission Riverside Manor - Residents and Staff Sharon Recreation Commission Shenango River Watchers Shenango Valley Performing Arts Council In addition, several sources of information have been researched to obtain background information for this report, and they are cited in footnotes on the pages in which they are referenced. The recommendations provided in this report primarily focus on physical improvements to Bicentennial Park. However, several policy recommendations are also provided that, if implemented, would enhance the physical improvements and contribute to the Park’s quality. Sharon Bicentennial Park Master Plan 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Sharon Riverbank Park (as it was first named) was constructed as part of the South Flats Urban Renewal program implemented in 1975.1 The Park was dedicated as Bicentennial Park in 1976 as part of the City’s celebration of the nation’s 200th birthday. The 3.6 acre park is curvilinear, following the bend of the Shenango River’s north shore between Connelly Boulevard and Budd Street. Its width is defined by Riverside Drive (paved but now abandoned) and two separately- owned housing developments, all of which form the western boundary. One complex consists of two high-rise apartment buildings inhabited primarily by the elderly. The other consists of two low- rise structures rented by tenants of mixed ages. Two points of public access exist. A public walk intersects with the trail entering the Park from the north near the bridge carrying Connelly Boulevard over the Shenango River. At the south, a public walk intersects with the trail entering the Park near the bridge carrying Budd Street over the river. The Park does not have permanent vehicular access; Willow, Monroe, Sterling Ave. and South Main Street once linked Riverside Drive to Connelly. Today, these streets do not exist, have been abandoned, or were converted into driveways servicing the multi-family housing developments. During the public meetings held throughout 2008, the attendees’ suggestions followed five major themes. These are presented below, along with a summary of the recommendations for Bicentennial Park presented in detail herein. 1. Improve security – replace existing poles and lighting fixtures; install new poles and energy-efficient fixtures; repair or remove play structures; remove part of the pavilion and renovate the remaining portion; enhance physical accessibility. Policy recommendations include police department foot or bike patrols for the Park and greater downtown area. 2. Implement basic Park and riverbank improvements – replace existing benches; install new waste receptacles and dispensers for bags to collect pet droppings; replace and/or relocate walkways; open views to the river and improve access to it for fishing or viewing; plan for the potential location of a small comfort station. Policy recommendations include regularly-scheduled Park maintenance, perhaps by a private contractor. 3. River-focused improvements – selectively clear vistas looking into the river; plan and implement removal of non-native species along the river bank; install decks and fishing stations; plan for a footbridge linking to the footpath on the south side of the river; plan for the relocation of the Budd Street Canoe Launch on the south side to the Park side. 4. Lack of vehicular access – plan for implementation of one of two options to provide permanent parking; one would require a right-of-way into the Park, and the other would not. 5. Lack of identity – install entry arches at both points of access to the Park. Policy recommendations include marketing the walking trail system that exists downtown Sharon. 1 Project #PA R-394, contract #1, funded by the PA Department of Community Affairs. Sharon Bicentennial Park Master Plan 3 The following table summarizes the recommended Priority of Needs and Uses. Based on a series of public meetings, review of the planning studies, the team’s observations and discussions with the Beautification Commission, the recommendations are prioritized as follows with cost estimates included. Priority of Needs and Uses at Bicentennial Park, by Phase Phase Item and Explanation Costs River-focused improvements: Study both riverbanks for the identification and future removal of non-native species; selectively clear 1 $ 260,000 vistas looking into the river; install overlook areas and fishing platforms. 2 New lighting. $ 315,000 Trail and site improvements: Including widening it to 8 feet; basic Park improvements (replace existing benches, install new waste receptacles 3 and dispensers for pet dropping collection bags); new entry arches; $ 212,000 remove existing playground and other damaged structures and replace with a new recycled reinforced rubber chip play surface. Pavilion improvements: Remove part of the pavilion and ensure the 4 structural stability and physical accessibility of the remaining portion; $ 170,740

  • The UPPER SHENANGO RIVER WATER TRAIL DETAILED
    The UPPER SHENANGO RIVER WATER TRAIL DETAILED PROJECT DESCRIPTION The upper Shenango River runs from its origin at Pymatuning State Park’s Shenango Reservoir dam, downstream and south to the Corps of Engineer’s Lake Shenango Reservoir. This is an “as the river flows” reach of some 26 miles. Historically, the river was both a commercial and recreational resource. Parts of it were components of the Erie Canal. Much structure from locks and towpaths still exist along the river. It transported trade goods, powered gristmills, and supplied clean water to various communities. Residents swam in it, dived from its bridges, and picnicked along it. More contemporaneously, it hosted canoe races, casual canoe and kayak trips, all sorts of fishers, and duck hunters. The Borough of Greenville uses it as it’s principal source of domestic water. Other pubic water suppliers who draw upon the Shenango are the Reynolds Water Company, Sharpsville Borough Water Company, and others farther down the river. At present, and in the recent past, none of these attributes are reasonably available to the public due to the severe number and extent of the blockages now obstructing the river. It is the mission of the Shenango River Watchers, Inc. (“SRW”) to re-open the channel, and then improve access to the river. We will then raise public awareness of the river’s attributes by bringing it into the Pennsylvania Water Trail system. The following comments and quotations reflect upon the inherent value of preserving the Shenango River watershed for broadly drawn environmental reasons. A Water Trail exists within, and contributes to, protecting and enhancing these virtues, whether threatened by environmental degradation or simply unknown to the general public.

  • Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for Beaver River
    Information Sheet for Beaver River Page 1 of 3 Information Sheet Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for Beaver River What is being proposed? A Total Maximum Daily Load or TMDL plan has been developed to improve the water quality in the Beaver River basin. Who is proposing the plan? To whom? Why? The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is proposing to submit the plan to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for review and approval as required by the federal regulations. In 1995, EPA was sued for not developing TMDLs when Pennsylvania did not do so. DEP has entered into an agreement with EPA to develop TMDLs for certain specified waters over the next several years. DEP developed this TMDL in compliance with the state/EPA agreement. What is a TMDL? A Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) sets a ceiling on the pollutant loads that can enter a waterbody so that the water will meet water quality standards. The Clean Water Act requires states to list all waters that do not meet their water quality standards even after pollution controls required by law are in place. For these waters, the state must calculate how much of a substance can be put in the water without violating the standard, and then distribute that quantity among all the sources of the pollutant on that waterbody. A TMDL plan includes waste load allocations for point sources, load allocations for nonpoint sources and a margin of safety. The Clean Water Act requires states to submit their TMDLs to EPA for approval. Also, if a state does not develop the TMDL, the Clean Water Act states that EPA must do so.

  • The Principal Indian Towns of Western Pennsylvania C
    The Principal Indian Towns of Western Pennsylvania C. Hale Sipe One cannot travel far in Western Pennsylvania with- out passing the sites of Indian towns, Delaware, Shawnee and Seneca mostly, or being reminded of the Pennsylvania Indians by the beautiful names they gave to the mountains, streams and valleys where they roamed. In a future paper the writer will set forth the meaning of the names which the Indians gave to the mountains, valleys and streams of Western Pennsylvania; but the present paper is con- fined to a brief description of the principal Indian towns in the western part of the state. The writer has arranged these Indian towns in alphabetical order, as follows: Allaquippa's Town* This town, named for the Seneca, Queen Allaquippa, stood at the mouth of Chartier's Creek, where McKees Rocks now stands. In the Pennsylvania, Colonial Records, this stream is sometimes called "Allaquippa's River". The name "Allaquippa" means, as nearly as can be determined, "a hat", being likely a corruption of "alloquepi". This In- dian "Queen", who was visited by such noted characters as Conrad Weiser, Celoron and George Washington, had var- ious residences in the vicinity of the "Forks of the Ohio". In fact, there is good reason for thinking that at one time she lived right at the "Forks". When Washington met her while returning from his mission to the French, she was living where McKeesport now stands, having moved up from the Ohio to get farther away from the French. After Washington's surrender at Fort Necessity, July 4th, 1754, she and the other Indian inhabitants of the Ohio Val- ley friendly to the English, were taken to Aughwick, now Shirleysburg, where they were fed by the Colonial Author- ities of Pennsylvania.

  • Left Logstown, Near the Present Site of An> Bridge, Pennsylvania, On
    FROM LOGSTOWN TO VENANGO WITH GEORGE WASHINGTON1 W. WALTER BRAHAM Washington left Logstown, near the present site of An> Georgebridge, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, November 30, 1753, and arrived at Venango, now Franklin, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday, Decem- ber 4. His route between these two points has been the subject of much speculation. Washington's biographers, from John Marshall, who blandly assumes that he went up the Allegheny River, to the late Doug- las Southall Freeman, who traced his route through Branchton inButler County, all adopt without comment the theory of a journey by a direct route from Logstown to Venango by way of Murderingtown. Dr. Free- man's recent and excellent volumes on "Young Washington'' give present point to the inquiry. The first-hand evidence on the trip of Washington to Fort Le Boeuf is of course in the diaries of Washington and of his companion, Christopher Gist, and the map of western Pennsylvania and Virginia believed to have been prepared by Washington himself and now lodged in the British Museum. 2 The diary entries are brief and may be quoted in full. Washington's diary entries concerning this part of his trip are: [Nov.] 30th. We set out about 9 o-Clock with the Half-King, Jeska- kake, White Thunder, and the Hunter; and travelled on the Road to Venango, where we arrived the 4th of December, without any Thing remarkable happening but a continued Series of bad Weather. [Dec] 4£7i. This is an old Indian Town, situated at the Mouth of French Creek on Ohio; and lies near N.
