District 1 News: Public comment sought for rental permit program
Hello everyone, Last September, City Council passed legislation to permit registration and inspection of all rental properties in the City of Pittsburgh, which includes both short and long-term rentals. This program, which will be implemented by the City’s Department of Permits, Licenses, and Inspections (PLI), will provide for systematic registration and inspection of residential rental properties. I’m happy to share that PLI is now accepting public comment for the Residential Housing Rental Permit Program, which ends on Sept. 30. 09/04/2024 09:00 AM

District 10 News: Neighborhood Economic Development grants now open
Hello everyone, Last month, Chestnut Street officially reopened to the public with a brandnew brick surface, new sidewalks, new ADA compliant curbs, and an updated drainage system. I, along with Mayor Ed Gainey and the Department of Mobility & Infrastructure (DOMI) held a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of this $1.6 million project. It was always my priority to keep the historic brick surface of the street and I’m thrilled with how it turned out. I also am thankful to the community, especially Community Alliance of Spring Garden-East Deutschtown (CASGED), for their support and patience during this project. I encourage everyone to drive, walk, or bike down this newly restored street! 08/23/2024 09:00 AM

Town Talk: Happy Day Dessert Factory — We all scream for ice cream!
“You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream” are the catchy lyrics of the 1925 song entitled “Ice Cream” recorded by Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians. Many of us (who are older) have chanted that phrase as we waited our turn at the neighborhood ice cream truck or local Dairy Queen. 08/19/2024 09:00 AM

Jonah’s Call Anglican Church moves to Deutschtown
On May 5 Jonah’s Call Anglican Church moved into its new location at 907 Middle St. The move converted Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church to an Anglican Church that traces its “spiritual heritage back through the historic Church of England,” according to the church’s website. “Jonah’s Call” is in reference to the Prophet Jonah, “who was called upon to preach the news of God’s love to a city that needed to hear it,” according to Jonah 3:1-10 in the Bible. 08/14/2024 09:00 AM
