Conshohocken Borough Administrative Office, 1 West 1st Avenue, Suite 200, Conshohocken, PA 19428
Conshohocken Borough is in the process of bidding streetscape improvements for the 100 block of Fayette Street. Improvements will include paver treatments on bump outs at the intersections of 1st and 2nd Avenue, some pedestrian lighting, curb replacement, installation of a paver strip at the curb line and the installation of dura-therm crosswalks.
Grant funding for this phase of the project has been limited and even with the addition of Borough matching funds, there will be insufficient funds to complete all aspects of the project as completed in other blocks of Fayette Street.
The Borough will hold a meeting for property owners and tenants on Wednesday, July 22, 2009 at 4:00 p.m. at Conshohocken Borough Administrative Office, 1 West 1st Avenue, Suite 200, Conshohocken, PA 19428. Representatives from the Borough and from Remington, Vernick and Beach Engineers will be present to discuss the project. Areas to be discussed include the possible sharing of sidewalk replacement costs; how to deal with the numerous Bilco doors on the block; the time frame for construction, including an estimated start date and duration; access to businesses during construction; who to contact during construction when problems arise; and maintenance responsibilities.
Please plan to attend this important meeting, and inform any of your tenants who might be affected by the project. Those requiring special accommodations to attend the meeting should contact the Borough Administration Office at 610-828-1092 as soon as possible to make arrangements.

I am pleased to announce that last week the Borough unveiled a new website. Please be sure to visit at www.ConshohockenPA.org. The site is intended to be more user-friendly and more up-to-date. The site was a largely volunteer effort, with a lot of work from neighbors Brian Tobin and Spencer Lewis as well as Ward 3 Councilman Paul McConnell, Borough Manager Fran Marabella, Public Works Director Harvey Buek and Borough Secretary Tiffany Griffin.
Check it out and be sure to let me know what you think and offer any suggestions you may have.
