The Ellwood City Council is set to vote on two proposals during it’s October 21 voting meeting.
One is the amendment to the Ellwood City Medical Center zoning ordinance to add facilities and residences included in a continuum of care entity to the definition of health services.
There will be a public hearing at 5:45 regarding this amendment.
Also on the agenda will be a consideration to remove parking meters in the borough.
Council President Judith Dici said the meters are outdated and “not that great of a revenue.”
She said Ellwood City brought in $18,762 from the meter fees and $5,372 in fines. It costs the borough more than $12,000 annually for salary and benefits of the meter officer and maintenance of the meters.
Dici said the less than $12,000 brought in each year is not enough to make the meters a viable source of revenue.
The move would not impact permit parking lots.
