Harrisburg Zoning Board denies parking relief for Midtown apartment project

The proposed project site at 320 Reily St., Harrisburg.

An apartment building proposed for Harrisburg faced a setback this week, as the zoning board turned down parking relief for the project.

The Zoning Hearing Board on Monday approved a special exception and variance application for a 144-unit building proposed for 320 Reily St. However, that approval excluded relief from parking requirements.

The project, proposed by Harrisburg-based GreenWorks Development, would include 160 parking spaces, located in lots at 1511 N. 3rd St. and 1530 N. 4th St. The developer requested parking relief, as city code requires 191 spaces for a project of this scope.

The three-member board denied the requested relief for those 31 spaces, while approving the rest of the project.

GreenWorks originally proposed the project in 2021 and received zoning relief. However, because they did not subsequently file a land development plan, their prior approval expired. Since then, GreenWorks updated the plan to include 11 fewer units and almost doubled the amount of proposed parking.

The board stepped out of the room to discuss its decision on the proposal in private and did not provide justification for its decision.

However, board member Claude Phipps mentioned that the developers could consider reducing the number of apartments to diminish the number of required parking spaces or bring forward a new request for relief.

“We want 100% compliance in that area,” Phipps said. “They need to stay within the code requirements for parking; that’s what we’re saying.”

The board also is requiring that the project have an easement or deed restriction to link the off-site parking lots to the project site for use by the apartment building’s tenants only.

Several city residents attended the meeting to share input on the project, with one woman also voicing concern over parking.

“Generally my concern is assuming that each unit will only have one car,” resident Rachelle Lowe said. “I don’t know that that is realistic because of visitors. I just want to make sure that parking is adequate.”

A few other residents spoke in support of the project and the requested relief.

“Parking mandates prevent homeowners, business owners and developers from being able to make decisions based on what they need,” said William Rowe. “Unnecessary parking is also a poor use of valuable real estate in a city like Harrisburg.”

Harrisburg University is pleased to have the opportunity to host this competition, placing a spotlight on the importance of financial literacy.”

The contest, which is co-sponsored by the Pa Auditor General’s office and Members 1st Federal Credit Union, kicked off in January.

Dauphin County offers additional glass recycling location in Harrisburg

Glass recycling container

Harrisburg residents now have another option to recycle glass.

Dauphin County announced on Monday that, in partnership with the city, it is accepting glass for recycling at the Dauphin County Recycling Center, adding another location to the list of drop-off sites in Harrisburg.

The city’s public works department does not currently collect glass as part of its curbside recycling collection. Residents who wish to recycle glass must take it to one of 10 containers throughout the city.

“Our recycling center frequently receives calls about glass recycling,” said county Commission Chair George Hartwick. “While most curbside recycling programs do allow it, some do not, so this partnership will be helpful to residents who want to be environmentally responsible, bolstering our citywide and countywide efforts to reduce litter and illegal dumping.”

The Dauphin County Recycling Center is located near the Steelton Borough line, at 1625 S. Cameron St.

The initiative began on Monday, at no additional cost to the county. Harrisburg has provided a two-yard dumpster for the collection and will service it weekly, or as often as needed.

The recycling center is open Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

“This is a great way to promote the partnership between the City of Harrisburg and Dauphin County to help streamline everyone’s day-to-day lives,” said Dave West, Harrisburg’s director of public works. “Instead of going to one place to recycle glass and one place to recycle everything else, now residents can do it all in one place. It’s a great idea, and one that will also help pull glass from mixing in with waste.”

Harrisburg sets spring opening for Broad Street Market tent, receives free plumbing services

Broad Street Market temporary tent

Harrisburg announced that a temporary tent to house displaced Broad Street Market vendors is slated to open early this spring, after receiving a significant donation.

According to the city, Harrisburg-area-based McClure Company has committed to install plumbing in the market tent for free, following months of the city struggling to find contractors for the project.

“Every time you turned on the news, it was impossible not to hear about it,” said Shayne Homan, president and CEO of Susquehanna Township-based McClure, in a statement. “It became harder for us to sit back and watch it unfold, when we knew we had the capacity to do the job. We just wanted to figure out financially how to make it work and help the city out.”

Harrisburg has largely completed the construction of a tent-like structure to house many of the market’s brick building vendors who were displaced by a devastating July fire. However, the city since had trouble securing bids for electrical and plumbing work.

McClure has already been working with the city to install a new HVAC system in the city’s Public Safety Building when the company became interested in donating to the market tent, Homan said.

McClure’s estimated donation of parts and labor totals around $65,000 to $70,000, according to Homan.

Crews with the company, many being members of the Local 520 Plumbers & Pipefitters union in Dauphin County, will work to supply water to the 16 vendors who have designated space in the market tent.

Homan estimates that it will take a week to mobilize his teams and another two weeks to complete the work.

Several days ago, Harrisburg also finalized a contract with KCS Electric to complete electrical work in the tent.

According to the city, once work is completed, vendors will move into the structure, with opening expected in the spring.

“None of this happens if Harrisburg isn’t a proud, union-strong city,” said Harrisburg Mayor Wanda Williams. “The road to get our Broad Street Market back has not been easy, but it will be worth it. McClure’s generous donation gets us one step closer to a grand re-opening.”

Burg Review: Savor a song and a meat pie at Open Stage’s darkly comedic, skillful “Sweeney Todd”

Open Stage’s rendition of the wickedly hysterical tragicomedy, “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street,” is peppered with darkly comedic spots, infused with intense suspense, and splashed with just a little taste of gristly gore.

Directed by Stuart Landon and Music Director Nicholas Werner, Open Stage adheres to their Season 38 theme, “Out of the Darkness,” to deliver the classic, multiple award-winning, oft-adapted, horror musical featuring victim-cum-villain Sweeney Todd (Brad Barkdoll). The penny dreadful tale is told mostly through operatic song in a dismal, Victorian-era setting, appropriately reminiscent of the inside of a slaughterhouse.

Barkdoll plays Sweeney Todd as a misunderstood murderer, a sort of vulnerable anti-hero ruffian. Singing about his bloodthirsty need for revenge, he takes on his character’s crazy eyes, under a homicidal trance. When he lunged toward the audience and swung his razor, I felt unsafe for an instant, until I remembered that I’m at the theater and it’s all just pretend. But in that moment, I recoiled and wished for a seat just a little farther back. Barkdoll is scary good, with vocals most impressive when he’s singing tongue twisters in “The Barber and His Wife” and “Epiphany,” and in his duets with Mrs. Lovett (Rachel Landon).

As Sweeney Todd’s literal partner in crime, Landon serves up a warm, funny baker with deliciously sinister undertones. Barkdoll and Landon show evident chemistry, especially during the hilarious and rollicking, “A Little Priest,” as the pair drink to their evil arrangement, and while singing to Sweeney Todd’s razor during the creepy ballad, “My Friends.” Landon adds a dash of humor to her solo, “The Worst Pies in London,” and a pinch of nurturing during “Wait.” Extra points to Landon for not missing a beat while handling kitchen props, especially her knife-tossing skills.

Slathering her maternal nature like butter on a crust, Landon sings a beautiful duet with orphan Tobias Ragg (Gabrielle Dina) in “Not While I’m Around.” Playing a cute and plucky boy, Dina’s chirpy voice rings out during the irresistible sales pitch, “Pirelli’s Miracle Elixir.”

Playing Sweeney Todd’s long-lost daughter, Johanna, Jasmine Graham hits those impossibly high notes perched several lines above a five-line staff on sheet music. In Graham’s solo, “Green Finch and Linnet Bird,” when her voice combines with Werner’s piano, it sounds like someone left an old-fashioned music box open on a forgotten dresser. Together with her suitor, Anthony Hope (Tyler Shadle), their voices mesh well together in that pleasant, unjaded, easy-on-the-ears way that young love does, especially during their duet, “Kiss Me.”

Also remarkably hitting and sustaining high notes typically outside the traditional range: TJ Creedon and Josh Dorsheimer. Further, both actors bring to life farcically comical characters (Pirelli and Beadle, respectively) who make the audience laugh out loud.

Marinated in an outpouring of talent, the entire cast blends together solid, skilled vocalists and musicians, with standout songs, “God, That’s Good!” perfectly setting the mood, and “The Ballad of Sweeney Todd” dramatically sandwiching the musical score.

If you and your guests (over 17 years old recommended) happen to visit the snack bar at intermission, be careful what you order. Although there is no audience participation, best to check for missing audience members, just in case. And if you find something tasty, may you enjoy it as much as the ensemble cast shamelessly enjoyed Mrs. Lovett’s succulent meat pies.

“Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” will run February 24 through March 16 at Open Stage, 25 Court Street, Harrisburg. For more information, check their website at https://www.openstagehbg.com/show/sweeney.

Veteran tiny home project nears completion, receives boost from local business

Crews with Renewal by Andersen installed doors and windows in tiny homes at Veteran’s Grove.

A unique project to provide homes for unhoused veterans is getting closer to completion.

Veterans Outreach of Pennsylvania (VOPA) on Friday demonstrated substantial progress on its multi-year project on S. Front Street in Harrisburg, installing windows and doors on 15 tiny homes with help from a local business.

Renewal by Andersen of Central PA provided the more than $500,000 in windows and doors and volunteered their time to install them on Friday.

“This is part of our DNA, of who we are,” said Scott Brodkorb, CEO of Renewal by Andersen. “We feel there’s a responsibility to give back to the community.”

In June 2023, VOPA broke ground on “Veteran’s Grove” on a five-acre plot of land at 1105 S. Front St., along the riverfront past the PennDOT building. The organization is currently finishing up construction on the over $4.1 million project, including the tiny homes and a community center.

After Friday’s work, next steps include adding siding to the houses, as well as painting and installing flooring inside, according to Tom Zimmerman, co-founder of VOPA and chair of the board. He estimates that VOPA will be ready to open its doors to residents by late spring or early summer.

“It’s surreal,” Zimmerman said. “This is where we are going to be servicing our veterans and helping them be able to become model citizens in our community.”

Crews work on the Veteran’s Grove community center.

Zimmerman said that VOPA will be reaching out to local service providers to take referrals for potential residents. Housing will be provided for free to veterans in need, and the length of time that they live at Veteran’s Grove will depend on each person’s needs, he said.

“I can’t wait until we can really start our operation,” Zimmerman said.

Harrisburg to develop five-year capital improvement plan for facilities

Harrisburg City Council meeting on Tuesday

An upcoming study will evaluate Harrisburg’s facilities, assets and infrastructure, aiming to create a path for improvement.

Harrisburg City Council on Tuesday evening approved a contract with Minneapolis, Minn.-based SitelogIQ to develop a five-year capital improvement plan.

“This is probably the first time that the city has had anything quite this comprehensive,” said Marita Kelley, the city’s finance director. “This is a good serious venture for us. This is real active planning.”

The company, which has a Harrisburg office, will assess the city’s government offices, parks and recreation facilities, public safety buildings, among other assets. They will also look at Harrisburg’s energy—water, fuel and electric—utilization.

SitelogIQ is slated to begin assessment in the coming weeks. They will then use the summer to create a list of prioritized projects, starting with those in most need of rehab, and present a draft improvement plan to the city in September or October, company officials shared.

The company will also assist Harrisburg in seeking grant opportunities to support improvement projects.

SitelogIQ will provide its services at a cost of $40,000 to the city.

According to Kelley, the company will start by evaluating facilities and may later move on to roads and bridges.

Also on Tuesday, council approved appointing James Hobbs to the Zoning Hearing Board. Hobbs, who previously served as an alternate for the board, will take the seat of board member Matthew Pianka, who resigned following his election as magisterial district judge. Hobbs will serve the remainder of Pianka’s term through the end of the year.

Additionally, council approved an agreement with Halcyon Interpreting Services, LLC for sign language interpreting services, at a rate of $55 per hour from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. and $60 per hour from 7 p.m. to 8 a.m. during the week. Halcyon has provided services to council since 2022.
