Ted Duran of PECO presented the check to the council and announced the money would be used study the problems with various local disconnections in the walking trail that stretched from Bristol to Easton, Northampton County.

Tullytown has also reviewed other grants to attempt to make the trail more walkable through the borough. The Pennsylvania Environmental Council is seeking grant money to improve the Delaware Canal walking trail.

At the council meeting, the sale of a police car via an online auction site was approved. The mayor also thanked residents who attended the September 11 ceremony.
