HRSD and Offline Storage Facility Open House
Planning for the HSRD Pressure Reducing Station (PRS) and Offline Storage Facility that will be located on the vacant land behind Fire Station 2 and Tabb High School is now 90% complete.

The open house will provide you an opportunity to receive information about the project and talk with project team members. If you are unable to attend the Open House, a presentation about the updated project design is available at www.hrsd.com/tabb-pressure-reducing-station-offline-storage-facility. Leaf Collection

Trick-or-Treating
In York County, trick-or-treating is recommended for 6:00 p.m.to 8:00 p.m. on Monday, October 31, for ages 12 and under. Trick-or-Treating Safety Tips • All costumes, wigs, and accessories should be fire-resistant • If children are allowed out after dark, fasten reflective tape to their costumes and bags or give them glow sticks • Consider wearing bright and/or light-colored costumes, which are easier to see at night. • Opt for non-toxic Halloween makeup over masks, which can obscure vision • Have an adult accompany younger children • Residents are asked to turn on porch lights to identify homes that wish to receive trick-or-treaters. Please avoid houses where porch lights are off. • Teach your children never to enter a stranger’s home or car • Tell your children not to eat any treats until they return home, and take care to avoid any food allergies • Remind children to be careful, watch for traffic, and to use flashlights. • Motorists should watch for children walking on roadways, medians and curbs, and enter and exit driveways and alleys carefully.
