    1. I heard they added a new piece of equipment that required PPL to increase the size of their service cable powering the Cafe and apartments. The lady at the Cafe said Don Murphy immediately rented a large generator to get her back up and running. I don’t know anyone who would do that for their tenant. Murphy’s are awesome and that building looks amazing!

    2. All landlords have an obligation to provide electricity to their buildings, otherwise they would be condemned.

    3. "they added a new piece of equipment that required PPL to increase the size of their service cable powering the Cafe and apartments" ? Didn't anyone think about what they were doing beforehand? Didn't an electrician check this out before the equipment was added?

    4. Hum shouldn't you have the electric service in place before you get new equipment, the know if you buy 3 phase machines, this seams to be a person that made a mistake and puts blame on something else.

  5. The sign MAYBE part of the signal permit. If in fact it is part of the signal permit it is to be maintained by the Borough. All traffic signals are the responsibility of the municipality they are in regardless if they are on a state road or not. The borough has a copy of the permit and it will show if that sign is part of the permit that was issued to them.
