Due to the borough’s excellent I reputation as a family-oriented community, it has become an attractive place for younger families to reside. I In order to plan for hture change, the Emsworth Borough Planning Commission devoted itself to a year-long process to develop a comprehensive plan. A comprehensive plan is a document disclosing past and present land use trends and sets a proposed course of action. It is a means of 8 dealing with change. The planning process consists of community surveys, data collection, analysis, problem identification, setting goals and objectives, and formulating options for the 1 future. Emsworth Borough has the potential to develop its Center Avenue Business District and its commercial land along Ohio River Boulevard. Emsworth’s proximity to Downtown Pittsburgh, I Thorn Hill Industrial Park, and the Greater Pittsburgh International Airport provides the borough e with the three items that real estate brokers deem critical to success: location, location, location. Realizing the potential for growth and redevelopment in Emsworth, the borough planning commission, zoning hearing board, and borough council selected Mackin Engineering Company I as its consultant to assist with developing a comprehensive plan. Mackin is pleased to present the Borough of Emsworth with an up-to-date comprehensive plan. I The following plan is tailored to the residents of Emsworth Borough and is intended to serve as a policy guiding tool for the physical development of the borough. It states basic objectives and long-term goals as developed over the past year, and will assist the borough leaders in their I future decision-making . I I ix ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The following people are recognized for their invaluable assistance in the preparation of this plan and their commitment to planning for Emsworth Borough’s hture. Their input will enable this plan to better serve as a guide for the future orderly growth and development of the borough. These individuals and groups deserve thanks: Emsworth Borouph Council Mr. George Rossi, Mayor Mrs. Jane Gruber, President Mr. Ed Politylo, Vice-president Mrs. Margaret Daniels, Councilwoman Mr. Robert Greca, Councilman Mr. Rich Hays, Councilman Mr. John Manko, Borough Councilman Mr. Rudy Wolf, Councilman Emsworth Borough- Planning Commission (4 Year Term) Mr. Sam Galante, Chairman Mr. Robert Greca Mr. Walter Kenderski Mrs. Kathy Marrno Mr. George Rossi Mrs. Susanne Wolf Mr. Drew Potoski Mr. Larry Donald Emsworth Borough Staff Mrs. Cathy Jones, Borough Secretary Mr. Martin F.P. Vinci 111, Borough Solicitor Mr. John L. Sullivan, Administrative Consultant Mr. Ronald Lawry, Personnel Manager . Mr. David Venturella, Borough Treasurer Mrs. Lisa Miller, Assistant Borough Secretary X INTRODUCTION Emsworth Borough’s Comprehensive Plan is the end product of a year-long planning period. The planning process was guided by the Emsworth Borough Planning Commission, which directed and reviewed the operations of its planning consultant, Mackin Engineering Company. This plan identifies current conditions, issues, and assets of the borough. It develops ways to resolve outstanding issues and build upon the borough’s strengths. There are a number of advantages to having completed a Comprehensive Plan: 0 It provides the municipality with a defensible and legal basis for land use, subdivision, land development and zoning controls evolving fiom the planning effort. 0 It provides valuable information which can be used in future funding applications. It identifies natural and physical features, conditions, and limitations which may affect the location, timing, and future development of the community. It results in the preparation of a community agenda which anticipates and prepares for the future of the municipality based on the rational analysis of various conditions. 0 It provides for a thorough land use study encompassing the current use of land and the recommended future land use, which assists in the preparation of any future subdivision and land development ordinances, zoning ordinances or land use plans. The Comprehensive Plan was created in a four phase process. Phase One, the Background Studies, analyzes the demographic trends, community facilities, public utilities, the transportation network, and other components of community life in Emsworth Borough. Phase Two, the Goals and Objectives, addresses issues brought forth in the Background Studies.

  • Descendants of William Woodburn (B
    Descendants of William Woodburn (b. 1730, Ballintemple, parish of Errigal, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland) In this record, persons are numbered consecutively. If they married and are known to have children, there is a plus sign (+) in front of their name, which indicates that additional information about them can be found in the next generation. I am solely responsible for all errors in this record. Corrections and additions are appreciated. Stephen W. Johnson 222 Parkman Ave. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213 [email protected] September 12, 2013 Descendants of William WOODBURN 12 September 2013 First Generation 1. WOODBURN was born (date unknown). The name Woodburn is apparently of Scottish origin. It may come from the Scottish term for a small stream--"burn"; hence, wooded burn or tree-lined stream. Woodburn, then, would have been the name given to people living in such an area. The main connection appears to be with the Ayrshire and Dumfries areas of Scotland. There, a George Woodburn was shot for being a Covenanter (Scottish Presbyterians in the 17th cen. who subscribed to various conservative covenants) in 1685. It was not unusual, however, for people from Scotland, in times of religious persecution, to flee to Ireland and England. Thus, for example, there are a number of Woodburns in Pennington Hall, Ulverston, Cumbria Co., England. There, a Robert Woodburne, in 1654, served as the attorney for George Fox, founder of ther Quakers, in acquiring land for the first Quaker cemetery. In Ireland, Carrickfergus Co. in Northern Ireland has an area and a police station bearing the Woodburn name. Despite these connections to England and Ireland, the original Scottish connection seems indisputable.
