In other business, Coaldale council on Tuesday:

• Fall cleanup will take place on Oct. 3. Coaldale residents can put out up to 10 bags of trash which can include appliances, but freon must be removed first. The weekend before will be dedicated to yard sales to give residents a chance to sell their things before deciding to throw them away. The yard sales will take place the weekend of Sept. 26 and 27 from 4 to 8 p.m.

• Ann Gallagher of East High Street put together a petition to reconstruct Moser Avenue from Third Street to Fourth Street. She presented her petition, which contained 23 signatures, to the board and council Vice President Claire Remington said the exact issue is already on the town’s list of things to do. Remington outlined that the town will have to take care of some other streets first.

“We’re going to dig the street up this year, pack it, then pave it next year and put drainage in,” Remington said. “We’re going to be paving next week to put some stone down (in the meantime).”

She said the town has a lot of roads that need to be done but the residents on Moser Avenue haven’t been forgotten.

• Council President Angela Krapf asked Mayor Herbert Whildin what the town’s Halloween plans are and he confirmed that plans for Halloween are currently undecided. Krapf said no matter what is decided, something will be planned for local kids.

• Remington requested there be someone dedicated to issuing quality of life violations. Whildin said there are some new borough workers that can be delegated to the job but said he’d talk to the borough workers about it before confirming who would be in charge of it.

• Remington said a borough worker needs to be put in charge of rechecking street work to ensure jobs have been completed correctly.

“If we open up a street, we need someone to inspect it before we close it up,” she said.

Member Wayne Figner raised the question of borough workers’ knowledge in inspection and said they’d need to be trained in some way to be able to identify an issue. Solicitor Robert Yurchak said he’d try to find someone to teach the workers to know what they’re looking for.
