Are you going to paint the poles Mr Murphy?? The borough is telling people they have to paint,the metal is a little sabby too. Maybe Jeff will make a exception,maybe he will be afraid of you or think you might sue.
In the article it says the post came from central manor,other things came from Strasburg and other places so is there a need to confer? Maybe you should reread the mag article before you comment. As far as my money ,I try to keep it in town and can tell you I have way more invested in Columbia than you and the way this council is spending tax money it scares the hell out of most people in town.If you wood answer some of the questions it might help people understand this madness. Wheres the 8.6 million and way no police dog, it should not matter what the mayor says Columbia has a bad drug problem and a dog makes a huge difference. Thank you Your garden looks great, it had to be a lot of work ENJOY IT.
Conservative….or thoughtful. Always have been and always will be. Remember I live here too and pay these same taxes. We have not raised taxes in 10 years. Find another borough that can say that. Kelly Murphy
Where is the 8.6 million dollars, it is a simple question. One other question way has the mayors next store neighbor put in a 4+ foot retaining wall with no permit? He (MAYOR)pulls in to his drive way every day it is less than 70 feet away? A wall and a backhoe aren't hard to see. SLECTIVE ENFORCMENT not just by Jeff Helm. Who is the boss at the borough any way,the citizens see what a mess it is….COLUMBIA NEEDS HELP,A BOSS WHO CAN MAKE THING EQUAL, INFORM CITIZENS OF WHAT THE BOROUGH IS DOING OR THINKING OF DOING, NOT THE BACK DOOR,UNDERHANDED,BACK SLAPPING,AND FAVORTISM THAT THE MAYOR AND ZONING OFFICER(or what ever the paper shuffler is called now)have been doing.
Taxes are all ready to high, why don't the borough include trash collection? This town wood be cleaner, Wrighsville and Marietta and York all have it,we might not need spring clean up if we had this………..POLICE DOG TOO.
10 years it seams like the borough has to much money have we been over charged 10 years,and now because of a lackadazital zoning officer we are being fined for what was let go. It can not be cleaned up in a year, maybe the borough should give tax rebates or some insentive to clean up Helms mess.
the posts are chipping codes will be in your yard as they are going from porch to porch and making people paint . please understand you are not special you have more chipping post than the people that are getting notice that they must paint them. don't try the use of excuse they are chipping and that is a fact.

There is no due process. That is unconstitutional. But some borough officials probably think they are above that pesky piece of parchment.
