πŸ“° News we're reading

β€’ Snow & Ice Removal: See Media's Ordinances Ahead Of Storm (patch.com) β€” Media Borough residents are reminded they must clear snow from sidewalks within 24 hours after a storm’s main accumulation ends, creating at least a three-foot-wide path. The borough also requires ice to be removed or treated with approved materials, bans shoveling snow into streets, and allows officials to clear noncompliant properties and bill owners, with potential fines up to $500 per day of violation.

β€’ In the heart of Delaware County, Media thrives (delcotimes.com) β€” Media’s downtown is buzzing this holiday season, with new boutique Glimmer and other State Street shops drawing crowds while Mayor‑elect Joi Washington and local leaders highlight how events like Dining Under the Stars and Fall Fest keep the borough thriving. Residents, business owners, and the Media Business Authority all point to strong community ties, near‑zero storefront vacancies, and year‑round events as key to β€œEverybody’s Hometown.”
