RNN SELINSGROVE 05/21/26          A THREE-YEAR LEGAL BATTLE BETWEEN THE BLOOMSBURG FAIR ASSOCIATION AND THE TOWN HAS FINALLY ENDED. FAIR OFFICIALS ANNOUNCED THEY WILL NOT APPEAL A COURT RULING THAT STRUCK DOWN THE TOWN’S OUTSIDE RACING BAN BUT DENIED THE FAIR ONE MILLION DOLLARS IN DAMAGES. WHILE THE FAIR WON’T HOST ANY RACES THIS YEAR, A NEWLY REVISED TOWN ORDINANCE ALLOWS THEM—OR ANY LOCAL GROUP—TO APPLY FOR SPECIAL NOISE PERMITS FOR YEAR-ROUND EVENTS.          PPL ELECTRIC UTILITIES IS PROPOSING A NEW NINE-MILE TRANSMISSION LINE PROJECT THROUGH LYCOMING AND UNION COUNTIES TO BOLSTER REGIONAL POWER GRID RELIABILITY. THE UTILITY PROVIDER PLANS TO HOST A PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE ON JUNE 3RD FROM 6TO 8PM AT THE CLINTON TOWNSHIP VOLUNTEER FIRE COMPANY IN MONTGOMERY, TO SHOWCASE PRELIMINARY ROUTES AND FEATURE THE TRANSMISSION STRUCTURES BEING PROPOSED. .          AROUND 60 RESIDENTS PACKED A NESCOPECK BOROUGH COUNCIL MEETING TO DEMAND STRICTER RULES ON A PROPOSED DATA CENTER ORDINANCE. THE CURRENT PLAN WOULD ALLOW DATA CENTERS ON AGRICULTURAL LAND NEAR ROUTE 93, BUT NEIGHBORS ARE RAISING CONCERNS OVER TRAFFIC, MASSIVE ELECTRICITY USE, AND NOISE. STATE LAWMAKERS AND RESIDENTS ARE URGING THE BOROUGH TO DELAY THE VOTE.   COUNCIL WILL REVIEW THE ORDINANCE DURING A SPECIAL MEETING ON JUNE 1ST.
