The council is also expected to recognize rescue workers as well vote to spend $20,000 on the Bristol Borough Learning Center’s advisory and oversight committee’s 2015 summer camp program.

The flood plain ordinance has been pending since the February council meetings.
Councilman Greg Pezza of the East Ward proposed the hiring of two part time police officers that would work until the full time officer was able to return to duty. Pezza explained during the meeting that the sudden interest in new police officers, almost a year after the initial push for officers began, is a result of a “more impassioned “public plea from Police Chief Arnold Porter and looking at numbers which appear feasible. Pezza described his motion for part time officers as budget neutral.
The council meets at 7 p.m. at the borough building.
