COMMUNITY-CHANGING WORKSHOP!

On Monday we had two guests – Jim Weaver, Planning Director of the Tioga County Planning Commission, and Daniel Strousser, the Wellsboro Borough Manager. They shared with us the importance of the impending comprehensive plan. This plan will affect the borough of Wellsboro and the townships of Duncan, Delmar, and Charleston.
