Columbia Water Company adds new sign to its facility

By -

 With a newly installed sign above the entrance to its facility, the Columbia Water Company has once again shown that it has SPARED NO EXPENSE on renovations that ensure our water supply is safe, clean, and efficiently delivered. The sign is a final step in a major overhaul that began over a year ago and has included new equipment and building upgrades.

 And to ensure that evening visitors can find their way, the sign will even be illuminated at night.

Not exactly ... "The Columbia Water Company provides public water service to over 10,000 customers located in Lancaster and York Counties. Operating within a franchised territory that covers Columbia, Marietta, and Mountville Boroughs and portions of West Hempfield, Manor, East Donegal and Hellam Townships ... " according to the company's Website.

I'd rather pay for the water company than the slumlord's bill for the property on Locust Street, yet it looks like we'll be paying for both.

Thank you for what? Putting a sign up? We all know what that building is. If you don't, then you shouldn't be allowed near a river or train tracks.

i strongly suggest that you do your research...go back to when this whole fiasco started and you will see it plain and clear that the COLUMBIA WATER CO CUSTOMERS ARE THE ONLY ONES PAYING FOR THE UPGRADE!

This does seem to be over the top when you consider the project was funded by the users of the system.

What's over the top about all copper spouting, that's a necessity. We all know that plain white, seamless spouting is unable to deflect water properly, it has to be made of copper.

Certain upgrades, beyond basic functional items, should not be at customers expense. If the owners want the building to have expensive gates and copper trimmings, that is great, but they can foot the bill for those items. No water customer will be better served by copper spouting.

Yeah thanks Mr Nickolas for moving to West Hempfield so you don't have to pay Columbia's taxes. Thanks for allowing all the buildings around your office on Locust St to be in disrepair. What are you thanking this guy for. This is a guy who has the means to make a difference in this town & does nothing.

Columbia's decision to ban former employee from its property may be 'unconstitutional' [Lancaster Watchdog]

By Columbia Spy -
Image
Chris Vera [Columbia Spy file photo] The following information is excerpted from a December 6, 2025 LNP Watchdog article by LNP | LancasterOnline reporter Jade Campos. Still reeling from an abrupt firing from his role as head of the Columbia Market House in March, Chris Vera was surprised to get a letter in the mail from a Columbia Borough attorney two weeks later telling him he was banned indefinitely from borough property. The letter gave no reason for the ban. Nine months later, Vera, who has served as president of the Columbia Historic Preservation Society for more than a decade and has helped with the borough’s comprehensive plan, is still banned from borough property. He believes the ban includes borough parks, which is part of the reason he moved his annual Albatwitch Day festival, which celebrates the myth of a local cryptid, to Wrightsville. Vera said he’s not sure why the borough went to such lengths to keep him away from public spaces given his termination from the borough s...

NATHAN WILLISON | LNP Staff Writer An East Donegal Township man is facing criminal charges after police say he struck a 13-year-old with his truck and fled the scene last month.  Derek Scott Mohr, 28, is charged with causing an accident involving death or injury without a license, failing to stop to render aid, driving at an unsafe speed and related charges.  Mohr had been driving a 2013 Chevrolet Silverado through Chestnut Street in Columbia around 8 p.m. March 20 when he struck a 13-year-old boy riding a motorized scooter and continued driving, according to charging documents filed by police.  When police arrived, they found the boy with a broken leg and a cut to his forehead. His scooter was lying nearby, its handlebars completely snapped off.  Another teenager who witnessed what happened described the truck to police and said that the driver made no attempt to stop after striking the boy. Surveillance footage collected from the area shows the truck striking the b...

Mayor Lutz must accept responsibility

By Columbia Spy -

  GUEST COMMENTARY [Name withheld by request out of fear of retaliation] For two decades, Leo Lutz has occupied the mayor's office in Columbia, and his supporters are quick to credit him with every positive development in our borough, but leadership is a two-way street. If Mayor Lutz is going to accept praise for Columbia's successes, many of which, frankly, he had little direct involvement in, then he must also be held accountable for our failures. The facts paint a troubling picture. Despite the mayor's repeated assurances that our streets are safe, we've witnessed a disturbing rise in assaults, shootings, and vandalism. His promises have fallen by the wayside: the foot patrol we were promised never materialized, nor did the bike patrol that was supposed to increase our sense of security. Fiscally, the situation is equally dire. Taxes have increased at least twice during Mayor Lutz's tenure, yet the borough now finds itself millions of dollars in debt. This isn...
