It’s Friday, July 31, 2026: This week, we have some very important news about West Chester’s Stream Protection fee. It’s the kind of news that will impact every single Borough resident, and probably many well beyond. It’s also going to leave Borough Council wrestling with some big decisions over the coming months. We get into it in our first story. It’s an important one, so we are making it free to all subscribers.

Plus, repair work continues at Chestnut Square Apartments, East Bradford announces a road closure that is expected to last through October, West Chester Borough gets ready for its big America 250 Celebration on Sunday, and a West Chester Little League team is headed to the World Series. How fun is that??

Ok, who’s ready? Let’s catch up.
