Carbon County Commissioner Chris Lukasevich planned to hold a town hall meeting Saturday at Mauch Chunk Lake Park to hear suggestions, concerns and comments on the facility. “I wanted to provide the opportunity for folks to come out and give them a voice on Mauch Chunk Lake Park’s recreational needs,” he said. He said the county’s Park and Recreation Board meets once a month but the meetings are during the day when people might be working or taking care of their families. He said he attends these meetings even though he’s not a member of the board. Despite his efforts to seek the public’s input, nobody attended the town hall except for Lukasevich and the news media.
