As approved at the October 2, 2017 meeting, minutes of 9/18/17 follow:
The Riverside Borough Council met on Monday, September 18, 2017 in the Borough Building, 415 Dewart Street, Riverside, PA.  Meeting was called to order at 7:00 pm by President John J Novak.  In attendance this evening were Vice President Peter Fleming and Council Members Carolyn Bausch, Caressa Compton, Barb Kriner and Beth Rake.  Secretary Deborah Bausch was present.  Absent this evening were council member John Domanski and Mayor Joseph Oberdorf. 
 
In the audience this evening were Stephanie Hauck, Caitlin Patraw, Angie and Rod Kerstetter, all residents of Mainzer Hill Road.  Stephanie Hauck spoke on behalf of the group regarding the condition of their road.  She stated in the past there had been tar and chip surfacing done; however that has not happened in recent years.  There is a major rut at the top where three roads intersect - Mainzer Hill, Boyce and Molter.  Street Superintendent Dan Gable responded to the group and stated the borough is aware of the condition of the road and there is a grant pending for assistance in getting it repaired.    His crew is trying to keep up with the pot holes as they occur especially after the heavy rains we had recently.  If no response is received within the next two weeks concerning the grant, he will reach out to Northumberland County and see what the status is.  President Novak assured the residents that they would be updated on the progress of the road repair.  Dan Gable stated the street crew would be there first thing in the morning to repair the rut at the top of the road.
