Cleona Borough Faces Financial Strain After Snowstorm Expenses

Cleona Borough Faces Financial Strain After Snowstorm Expenses

The borough of Cleona, Pennsylvania, is facing financial difficulties after exhausting most of its emergency funds due to snow removal costs from February's snowstorms. Mayor Matt Zechman announced that the borough will not receive reimbursement for these expenses, which have consumed 96% of the annual snow removal budget. The lack of state and federal support has left the borough in a precarious financial position as it prepares for the upcoming fall and winter seasons. Zechman emphasized the importance of self-reliance and the need for the borough to build systems that do not depend on contingent funding.
