Boro Shares Information On Levee Issues

 

 

Members of the Emporium Borough Council are in contact with Eldred Borough officials to share information on levee issues.

Eldred’s levee system was recently discredited, and now residents are being forced to pay much higher flood insurance premiums on their properties.

“Small municipalities are dealing with water issues. We have to work together to see what we can do to alleviate our problems,” said Borough Council President Luann Reed. “Clearfield had five inches of rain and it caused a disaster. That could happen here—we don’t have a creek that can handle it.”
