  • City of Scranton Council Responses – June 16, 2026 | PDF

    Jun 16, 2026

    ·Scranton, PA
    Other

    The City of Scranton administration prepared responses to City Council questions from the June 9, 2026 meeting, dated June 16, 2026. Council President Tom Schuster raised five matters: the administration declined to meet separately with PA Ambulance before issuing a Request for Proposals, citing fairness concerns, and instead directed Fitch & Associates to prepare an RFP with input from City Administration. Regarding the Emergency Operations & Training Center, the administration clarified that the facility has two components—an Emergency Operations Center for Scranton city use and potential Lackawanna County backup, and a Training Center available for regional use with terms to be determined once the project advances and grant funding is secured. The administration did not provide specific salary projections for ARPA-funded staffers in 2027 and beyond, instead redirecting to another agenda item response. For a sunken pavement cut at N Main Avenue & Clearview Street, the city will file a complaint with PennDOT as that section is state-owned and maintained. Code Enforcement, the Scranton Police Department, and the Department of Public Works were asked to address unspecified issues at Frank Grippo & Son Auto Body at 1503 N Main Avenue.

    The Madison People's Budget is a 2021 initiative by Freedom, Inc. designed to give Madison residents direct input into municipal budget allocation, with particular emphasis on voices from low to no-income Black, Southeast Asian, disabled, queer, trans, and gender non-conforming communities. The project gathered data from over 1,500 Madison residents through surveys and focus groups to identify community budgeting priorities, with the goal of creating a budget that reflects community needs rather than government decisions made with minimal public input. The report frames budgets as moral documents and advocates for resource allocation that addresses systemic disparities including police violence, housing affordability, food insecurity, and economic displacement.
