I INTRODUCT I ON AND SUMMARY I I INTRODUCTION AND SUM-MARY -r,e cennsyivan~aNunicipaiicies riailfiiny LaGe jnc~ii0 or ,983) requires that Tennsylvania counties prepare and adopt ii I comprehensive plar, by February 21, 1992. Sach an action has both binding and non-binding consequences. I Legally, once a comprehensive plan is adopted, in whole or in part, any action of the governing body, its departments, agencies, and appointed authorities must be submitted to the I planning commission when the proposed action relates to: - the location, opening, vacation, extension, widening, narrowing, or enlargement of any street, public ground, I pierhead, or watercourse; - - the location, erection, demolition, removal, or sale of any I public structure located within the county; - the adoption, amendment, or repeal of an official map, subdivision and land development ordinance, zoning I ordinance, or provisions for planned residential development, or capital improvements program; or I - the construction, extension, or abandonment of any water line, sewer line, or sewage treatment facility. In addition, any action of a school district, following the I adoption of a comprehensive plan or any part thereof by the County, relating to the location, demolition, removal, sale, or lease of any school district structure or land, must be submitted I to the county planning commission for their recommendations. For these situations, then, the County's adoption of 211 or part I of a comprehensive plan has legally binding consequences. For all other situations the Comprehensive plan's effect is non- binding, but no less important. 1 Generally, the purpose of a comprehensive plan is to set policies. Policies are set in relation to an inventory and evaluation of as many aspects of the natural and manmade I environments as feasible and an assessment of community interests and concerns. Policies should be set with this 'big picture' in mind. In addition, they should be long range in perspective and I slightly utopian or ideal in character. As such, the plan's primary non-binding function is to guide decision-makers as they face the many difficult choices before I them. It serves as a reference; an overview of the way things are in 1989 and 1990 and how county residents feel the future of Susquehanna County should be. It should be referred to again I and again during the course of carrying our County business. 1 Act 170, the Municipalities Planning Code, stipulates that I i comprehensive plans shall include, Sut not 5e lirnited to, the I following: - 3 statement of objectives cor:cerning frrttrre developmeat including the Iccation, zharzcter, and timing of I ue iief upmac , - 2 ;?Ian for land cse which may inclzde 2rovisions for the I amount, intensity, character, and timing of various land uses: 1 - a plan to meet current and future housing needs; - a plan for movement of people and goods; 1 -a plan €or community facilities and trtilities; - a statement of the Interrelationships among plan I components; . - short - and long-range plan implementation strategies, and I - regiosal trends. B The chapter on Transportation primarily addresses the road Retwork as a limit on economic development. It identifies the I- 81 corridor and connecting highways as the primary locus of I potential commercial and industrial development and recommends that the Northern Tier Regional Planning and Development Commission's 1979-81 Corridor Study be updated and adopted as part of the County's comprehensive plan. I Susquehanna County's comprehensive plan consists of seven component chapters - Physiography - Community Facilities - I Housing - Land Use - Population - Transportation - Goals and Objectives. These components address in full or in part, those items listed above and stipulated to be in a comprehensive plan. I The first six chapters are largely descriptive, the latter contains the recommendation for action. I Summarizing: The chapter on Physiography describes the county's topography, 1 surface and groundwater resources, wetlands, soils, geology, and climate, while attempting to draw attention to the natural environment's limitations on development. I The chapter on Community Facilities is an inventory of county and municipal public and quasi-public facilities, noting any deficiencies. In general, the County is doing an adequate job I providing, maintaining, and improving county owned facilities and supporting a variety of non-County owned and operated facilities and activities. The only weak area might be in the category of U ii I I I County owned recreational facilities. 1 .. mho ~~,,-,+..'q v-l- TJ<LL -,-?D-L t7 1,--1 m'Jnlci2?2 - 2--?,2I "-- facilities should be an expanded effort to encourage and coordinate the improvement of existing facilities and the I development of new facilities through multi-municipal agreements and technical assistance relating to design, construction, and B financing. The chapter on housing provides a wide range of information on the County's housing stock, including recent trends (1980-90) I that have developed in recent years. The chapter on land use is a basic inventory of existing Land Use throughout the County. Included therein are: General land use I patterns, changes in land use, effects of changes in land use and conclusions. I The chapter on population and economy is primarily composed of graphs and charts that depict various trends in both population 1 and economy. Finally, the nuts and bolts activities suggested in answer to the question "what are we to do next?", are contained in the Goals and Objectives chapter. Goals based on the findings of the I descriptive chapters and an extensive public participation process are followed by 281 specific and implementable I objectives. For all the inventories, descriptions, analyses, projections, and recommendations typically contained in a comprehensive plan, a I plan is only as good as the extent to which it is carried out. This requires a commitment on the part of the County to allocate sufficient resources toward achieving the stated goals and 1 objectives. Therefore, it is recommended that the County Planning Office be expanded to include at least one person whose job it is to 1 oversee the implementation of the comprehensive plan. this person's duties would be diverse and include, in no particular order, long range planning, overseeing the implementation of a I zoning law, public relations, the dissemination of information, assistance to local municipalities, creation of a capital improvements program, development of a uniform permitting process I and code enforcement program, grantsmanship, and more. I I 1 iii I PHYSIOGRAPHY I I PHYSIOGRAPHY TOPOGRAPHY I Susquehanna County lies mainly within the Glaciated Low Plateaus section of the Appalachian Plateaus Province. However, a small part of the southeastern comer of the county belongs to the I Appalachian Mountain Section of the Valley and Ridge Province. The area is characterized by moderate to steep hills trending generally in a northeast - southwest direction. This is a result of the direction of glacial movement. The last of at least three glacial 1 advances which ended some 7000 years ago covered all of the area except the peaks over about 2200 feet. As the ice sheet advanced from the northeast, it ground down the hilltops, 6Ug some valleys and I deepening others, depositing glacial drift over virtually the entire area. Later, as the ice melted and the glacier retreated, much of this drift was transported by the swollen rivers and deposited as outwash. Some of the present streams are flowing over buried valleys as deep below the surface as I 300 feet. In some places they cut a series of terraces into the varied deposits of outwash. The highest point in the county is in the southeast comer of Herrick township where the North I Knob of the Elk Hills reaches an elevation of 2693 feet above sea level. Much of the rest of the county is high and rolling with, for the most part, elevations above 1500 feet.

  • May 2020 Spire
    Our Spire Volume 40 May 2020 Number 4 Reaching Up to God, Reaching Out to People 1 Pastor’s Page Dear Congregation, Just a few weeks ago, the optimist in me said that when this pandemic passes and our social distancing ban lifts, it will be as if a flag over a race track waves and, in going forward again at our regular pace, we’ll all return to What Was. Now I see there won’t be a flag. We will come out of this slowly, not all at once. There won’t be a What Was, either. We’re going to live with a new norm—at least for a lot longer than any of us initially thought. This new norm is painful for so many of us. Even us introverts long for those connections we had. We long for worship in the sanctuary, especially when we sing those familiar hymns and the sounds of the voices all around us bring the Holy Spirit right to us and right through us. We miss the chatter before and after church. The waves, the nods, the happenstance greetings for those we have and have not seen in a while feels like such a distant memory. The many, many joys of our fellowship are not just gone, they are grieved. It’s a sad time. It’s much more than that though. Yes, we have the season of sorrow, discomfort, uncertainty and loss, and we surround in prayer those who have lost a loved one to the virus. We, who are no strangers to grief, also know God is talking to us through all of this.

  • 2017-2018 Annual Report
    The Pennsylvania Basic Education/Higher Education Science and Technology Partnership 2017-2018 Annual Service Report Executive Summary The Science In Motion program sustained bipartisan support by members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly and was inserted back into the 2017-2018 state budget after deletion by the Governor. Science In Motion(SIM) was very eager to be able to provide hands-on, inquiry-based experiences to the participating schools in its role as the premier high school science education outreach program for the Commonwealth. Financial hardship of program funding over the past several years has forced many of the SIM host sites to reduce service area size, delay service to schools for several months, or completely stop service before the end of the school year. Of the sites that had science education specialists (mobile educators) from the ten-member colleges and universities, Science In Motion staff members presented over 1,590 hands-on laboratory experiences to 212 different schools. The program also provided an additional 6,206 drop-off laboratory kits for short term loan and offered 13 days of professional development workshop opportunities consortium-wide for over 55 teachers. Overall, Science In Motion provided 470 different teachers with 759 different labs creating 158,320 student experiences during the 2017-2018 school year. What is Science In Motion? Most Pennsylvania high schools cannot afford the modern, well-maintained equipment that it takes to prepare students for today’s modern technological careers in science, engineering and other technical fields. Modern scientific training is especially expensive as it requires multiple sets of equipment so that each student can get a hands-on, inquiry-based experience.

  • Workforce Development and Job Training
    Economic Development News from Tioga County, Pennsylvania Special Edition 1998 Issue 12 SPECIAL EDITION Work Force Development in Tioga County One of the key concerns of business and industry throughout Tioga County is the availability of a quality work force to meet the needs of our employers. The Tioga County Development Corporation (TCDC) , working closely with industries, has actively encouraged and supported work force development since being formed in 1991. Employers continue to search for qualified employees to compliment their work force. As the countywide economic development organization striving to assist industries and businesses to create employment opportunity for our residents, TCDC has continued to connect employers with educators in order to prepare our youths for careers which will allow them to remain in our County and contribute to our economy and our community. TCDC’s Community Economic Recovery Program (CERP) Survey conducted in 1993-94 raised the need for quality employees for our work force. Over thirty nine (39) major employers were interviewed and the resounding theme was the need for trainable employees coming out of our schools. In 1996, the 49 CORRIDOR Enterprise Zone Strategic Plan Process interviewed eleven (11) industries in the Zone concerning thirty (30) need areas. Four (4) of the top six (6) needs related to a trained workforce. Through the State’s School To Work Initiative our three (3) school districts were presented with the opportunity to jointly pursue career development for our students. For the first time, school administrators, school directors, educators, business owners and leaders, economic development organizations, community leaders and parents are working together to prepare our students for challenging careers.

  • 2014-2015 Pennsylvania School District Medicaid Reimbursements for School Based ACCESS Services
    2014-2015 Pennsylvania School District Medicaid Reimbursements for School Based ACCESS Services For nearly 30 years, schools across Pennsylvania have used Medicaid to fund the School Based ACCESS program to cover certain health-related services for Medicaid eligible children. Children covered by Medicaid may receive primary or preventive services in a school-based center, such as hearing and vision screenings. Pennsylvania also uses Medicaid dollars to help schools provide services described in a child’s special education plan under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). This includes services such as occupational and physical therapy, nursing, mental health, and aides in the classroom.
