The easiest way to be in the know.

It’s Friday, Jan. 24, 2025: Something stinks in the Borough. That’s right, this week we are talking sewers. Fun, right? And while the puns abound, so do the problems. West Chester’s system is currently at max capacity meaning not even a single new residence – or specifically a couple of new restaurants – can move forward with construction until the Borough gets a corrective action plan approved by the state. So what’s the plan and when will things get moving again? I have the scoop. Also, West Chester Police arrested a suspect wanted for a series of burglaries, West Chester University’s modular dorms are taking shape on Matlack St. and could there be a new “Performance & Event Venue” coming to Market St.??? (Please, let the answer be yes.) What we know so far.

Ok, who’s ready? Let’s catch up.
