Two-vehicle accident with injury on Ironville Pike

Units responded to a two-vehicle accident at Kinderhook Road and Ironville Pike shortly after 2:30 this afternoon. A Suzuki Verona traveling east on Ironville Pike reportedly collided with a Toyota Scion xB that had pulled out from a stop sign at Kinderhook Road, and the impact spun the Verona around in the opposite direction. Both vehicles sustained front-end damage, and airbags deployed in the Verona. The female driver of the Verona had to be extricated from the vehicle by emergency personnel using two sets of Jaws of Life. She was transported by ambulance due to injuries. The vehicle was then towed. The Scion was able to be driven from the scene.

Street sweeping resumed today, Monday, March 7

A source tells Columbia Spy that 50 tickets have been issued today.

Councillor urges involvement in government

A Mount Joy Borough councillor urges citizen involvement in government, in an LNP Letter to the Editor:

"The lesson of the Manheim Township school board, and the true value of the Sunshine Act, is in citizens becoming involved in their government. So read the online agendas and minutes, attend those public meetings, and become more engaged in your public councils and boards. If you don't, then all the government transparency in the world will mean nothing."
