Chairman Edward L. Heiser, Jr. Robert Rahauser Doug Royer Kerry D. Tyson i I .J NITTANY VALLEY JOINT COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING INITIATIVE Under the guidance of Attorney Ben Novak, seven Centre County Municipalities joined together in 1988 with the goal of updating their Comprehensive Plans and Zoning Ordinances. They were: J Bellefonte Borough J Benner Township J Centre Hall Borough ! J Marion Township J Port Matilda Borough J Spring Township J Walker Township Huston Township was originally part of the group, but subsequent- I ly resigned and was replaced by Port Matilda Borough. i Nittany Valley was selected as a common name for the group as five municipalities, Bellefonte Borough plus the four Townships, lie in the Nittany Valley between Nittany and Bald Eagle Moun- tains. These five communities also comprise the Bellefonte Area School District and have formally been designated the Nittany Valley Subregion by the Centre County Planning Commission. Centre Hall Borough, just over Mount Nittany in Penns Valley, and Port Matilda Borough just over Bald Eagle Mountain in the Bald Eagle Creek Valley have similar problems and concerns, and thus opted to join the group. The primary motivations behind this effort were the recognition and acknowledgement that: 1 0 All of the participating municipalities either did not I have or had outdated plans and ordinances, 0 By participating together, the region's problems could be faced squarely with less chance for duplication of effort or misunderstanding, 0 By participating together, a common format for codes and ordinances could be achieved, and 0 By proceeding concurrently with common consultants, lower costs could be realized. i The joint venture has been an unqualified success. First a grant was received from the Pennsylvania Department of Community Affairs to help defray a portion of the costs; a grant that otherwise might not have been received had the joint effort not f been made. Secondly, a number of decisions were made on a joint basis which were best both for the region and for the individual municipalities; decisions which might not otherwise have been made. And thirdly, by presenting a united front it is hoped to better gain the attention of both State and County Agencies re- garding funding for needed projects. 1 ! The group plans to continue joint efforts in the future. i - iv - CONTENTS Centre Hall Borough Officials ............................ iii Contents ................................................... v Resolution ................................................ ix Background Reports 1.

  • Chapter Title
    Centre County Demographics and Travel Patterns The purpose of this chapter is to describe Centre County in terms of demographics, major and minor trip generators, planning and zoning, and travel patterns. This information, when considered relative to the inventory of available transportation modes in Centre County, helps to identify specific areas that present the greatest need for transportation improvements. The large land area of Centre County (almost 1,100 square miles), and the County’s mountain ridges and valleys impact the physical layout of transportation infrastructure. Demographic indicators must also be considered within the context of these geographic attributes. Within this chapter, socioeconomic data at the census tract level from the 2010 US Census, 2009-13 American Community Survey (ACS), and the information from Chamber of Business and Industry of Centre County (CBICC) is presented relative to the following categories: • Population and Density • Vehicle Availability • Income and Poverty • Labor Force and Unemployment • Public Assistance and SSI Income • Educational Attainment • Distribution of Jobs • Distribution of Age 65 and Older Population and Social Security Income • Distribution of Disabled Population • Housing Figure 2, which is a map of census tracts within Centre County, is presented on the following page.

  • Penns Valley Rail Trail
    CHAPTER 2 PHYSICAL FEASIBILITY— what is the condition of the railbed now, and what are the opportunities and constraints to repurposing it as a rail trail? Like the ingenuous footpaths Native Americans mapped out along the most dry level and direct route through the ridges and valleys centuries ago, the L&T’s surveyors and engineers followed the lowlands near the center of the valley and the gaps through the mountains carved by the creek to avoid steep slopes, locating the railbed on the natural bench above the creek or creating a new bench for the railbed where none existed before to avoid wet areas and washouts from annual Spring freshets and the occasional 100 year flood or hurricane. For the most part, that strategy worked, explaining why much of the railbed remains intact today, more than a century after it was built. Nevertheless, the corridor is not without its issues. Many sections of the railbed are overgrown with small trees and impassable thickets of invasive shrubs, the stone ballast oftentimes hidden from view beneath verdant beds of grass and moss. Puddling occurs in places where culverts filled in after the railbed was abandoned. In some areas, the railbed has been altered, removed or already repurposed for driveways, fencerows and cropland, or more intensive uses, like the Penn Township sewer plant and the Grange Fair concessions area. Some lands are in ag preservation, which prohibits non-agricultural activities, including trails. The floor of both tunnels are littered with rock, calling into question the safety of their use by the general public.

  • The Central Pennsylvania Conference (EV) 1850-1871 Compiled from the Conference Archives
    The Central Pennsylvania Conference (EV) 1850-1871 compiled from the Conference Archives I. Annual Conference Records Because of denominational unions and boundary adjustments, the Central Pennsylvania Conference of the United Methodist Church includes congregations with roots in more than a dozen distinct predecessor conferences. In order to service its constituency, the Conference Archives seeks to acquire and maintain as complete a collection as possible of the journals of these various conferences. Congregations with roots in one of the three primary Methodist Episcopal, United Brethren or Evangelical Association conferences that served central Pennsyl- vania have access to virtually complete conference records and statistics. Even in these instances, however, conference journals can be incomplete. Early journals of all the predecessor denominations list only charge statistics. While they clearly identify the pastor assigned to each charge, they do not provide information about individual churches -- nor do they even identify which churches are on which charges. Hidden within the minutes, however, are specific reports that provide valuable primary source information at the congregational level. Missionary Reports : When conferences began printing their journals, they tried to contain expenses by producing a product that many people would be willing to purchase. Including a detailed report of missionary giving proved to be the key, for people like to see their name in print -- especially when connected with noble causes. Accordingly, many conferences listed the people at each appointment on each charge who contributed to missions -- and often listed the amounts of the individual contributions. These reports not only identify what churches were on what charges, but they also identify which families attended which churches.
