• send Chief Vincent McGinnis and Shawn Fye of the police department for Taxer re-certification at a cost of $350.
• advertise the sale of the borough's two H&K G36 223 caliber rifles.
The purchaser is required to have met federal licensing requirements because they are considered to be automatic rifles.
• award the bid for the paving of Dorey Street to New Enterprise Stone and Lime of New Enterprise for $78,950.

• sell the borough's 2004 Crown Victoria to Tammy McBride for $800.
• approve the resolution to continue the DUI Task Force.
With school starting soon Mayor Jim Schell asked all motorists to take care and drive slowly. He also thanked all the participants in upcoming PBS television series "Our Town" on Clearfield.
With the controversy concerning the new polo shirts for the police department, McGinnis withdrew his request to allow officers to wear shorts in the summer if they so wished.
