Important Announcements for Glassport Residents and Business

---

Hello,

We wanted to make sure you received an invitation to the gateway signage ribbon cutting on June 21.  The event will be followed by a tour of the Glassport business district  with County Executive Sara Innamorato.

You're  invited to the official ribbon cutting celebration for the debut of the  new Glassport Gateway Signage, a vibrant mosaic glass creation brought  to life by talented local artist,  Sarah Cohen based on a design by Glassport artist Christopher Galiyas.

Join  us in Glassport, PA on Saturday, June 21, 2025, from 12:00 PM to 12:30  PM as we unveil the welcoming signage on Ohio Avenue near the  intersection of Broadway and across from the  former Glassport Athletic Field.

Anthony  Colecchi, Glassport Borough President, will give welcoming remarks and  be joined by County Executive Sara Innamorato to mark the occasion along  with other invited guests.

This  project was made possible through the generous support of Allegheny  Together, a program supported by Allegheny County Executive Sara  Innamorato and Allegheny County Economic Development;  Pennsylvania Council of the Arts, a state agency funded by the  Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts;  and the Opportunity Fund.

Please RSVP by Friday, June 6th, through https://www.alleghenytogether.com/event-details/glassport-gateway-signage-ribbon-cutting-event 

Questions can be directed to engage@alleghenytogether.com. 

Glassport Borough will have our annual Spring Cleanup on Saturday April 26th, 2025 starting at 9:00.  Volunteers are asked to sign in at the Senior Center on the 26th.  Free supplies will be provided while they last.  Dumpsters will be located  at 6th Street and Allegheny Avenue and are for residents only.  There will be signs on the dumpsters with a list of items that are NOT permitted to be put in the dumpster.

Pa American Water Company has posted the 500 block of Indiana Avenue for No Parking.  Restrictions are weekdays, 7:00am - 5:00pm.  The water service line  replacement project for this block is scheduled to start this week and  has a tentative end date of March 14th, weather pending.  As the work is  completed, the next block will be posted  until the entire project is finished, ending at Broadway.  Your  patience is appreciated during this construction.

Each year, HSC Mon Valley partners with the United Way’s Free Tax  Prep (FTP) Coalition to provide an FTP site. Individuals and families on  a low-income or fixed budget may be eligible to have their federal,  state, and local taxes done for FREE. Due to the nature of our program,  our volunteer tax preparers pay special attention to Earned Income Tax  Credit (EITC) and Child Tax Credit eligibility to make sure that  individuals and families are able to get their maximum tax refund.

The FTP Program runs from mid-January to mid-April, with appointment  scheduling typically starting the second week of January. To make an  appointment, taxpayers should call 2-1-1 or 1-888-856-2773 after the  second week of January.
