Deadline to appeal is April 2.
Property owners looking for information and a better understanding of Allegheny County court-ordered reassessments came to the Baldwin High School auditorium on Wednesday night for a town hall meeting featuring county executive Rich Fitzgerald and county council member John Palmiere, of Baldwin Township.

The deadline to make a formal appeal on the assessments is April 2. The form to do so is available online or by visiting the Office of Property Assessments. The deadline to schedule an informal review has passed, but those who have already taken that route can still …

DiNardo won election to the board in November.
Though he recently swore into a two-year term on the Baldwin-Whitehall School Board during a reorganization session on Dec. 7, Sam DiNardo Jr. has resigned from the board, effective Dec. 22. The reason for his resignation is unavailable at this time. DiNardo first joined the B-W School Board in February 2011 when he was appointed to fill a vacant seat. He then won public election to the board in November. DiNardo is the husband of former B-W School Board member Nancy Sciulli DiNardo, whose resignation for personal reasons in September 2010 opened a place for former board member John Palmiere to fill Sciulli DiNardo's seat the next month. Palmiere then resigned in January 2011 to join the Allegheny County Council. Technically, Sam DiNardo …

Allegheny County Executive-elect Rich Fitzgerald has applauded county council members for their "courageous vote" on Tuesday to raise county taxes 1 mill for 2012. According to a story in the Dec. 7 Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, council divided, 11-4, along party lines to approve a $784-million operating budget and the tax hike to pay for it. All Democrats voted for the budget and tax bills, and all Republicans voted against them. "I know that it was a difficult decision, but I stand with many leaders of our community in commending the members for recognizing that increasing the millage was something that had to be done," Fitzgerald said in a press release. "With council's vote, services to the disabled, children and elderly in our community …

Also, budget planning for 2012 is discussed in these remaining notes from the Nov. 16 Whitehall Borough meeting.
“Do you build prisons, or do you invest in children?” were the words of South Hills Interfaith Ministries (SHIM) Executive Director Jim Guffey as he spoke to the Whitehall Borough Council on Wednesday night, asking for its support in the continued funding of his organization. Particularly, Guffey wanted the Whitehall Council to formally back his organization’s efforts by contacting higher-ranking government officials and asking for their support, as well. Guffey told Whitehall council members that SHIM is looking at cutting programs and/or a block of employees should it not receive a favorable amount of Allegheny County funding soon. According to its website, SHIM’s Prospect Park Family Center (in Whitehall) was established in February …

Steven Hvozdovich, another democrat, has withdrawn from the ballot. Primaries will be held on May 17.
John Palmiere, a democrat from Dewalt Drive in Baldwin Township who is serving out the remainder of Joan Cleary's term on the Allegheny County District 6 council seat, will be the only name on the District 6 county council ballot come time for May 17 primary elections. Only one other person – Steven Hvozdovich of Leona Drive in Whitehall Borough – had qualified to run against Palmiere for the full, four-year term, but Hvozdovich removed his name on March 21, two days before the deadline to do so. Hvozdovich's qualification was not challenged, and he withdrew from the ballot on his own volition, according to the Allegheny County Division of Elections. Not only will Palmiere not be officially challenged for a Democratic nomination to the …

Bryan O'Black is the only other person motioned for appointment, though the O'Black motions never reached a voting stage.
The Baldwin-Whitehall school board held a regularly scheduled agenda meeting at the Baldwin-Whitehall school district office on Feb. 2, though, atypically, the board also voted on four items to begin the meeting, including two motions to appoint new board members. Motions to appoint Laurencine Romack and Sabatino DiNardo Jr. to the board (in that order) both passed after the board accepted the resignations of John Palmiere and John Egger (also in that order). Palmiere resigned from the B-W school board in January to accept Allegheny County's District 6 council seat, and Egger resigned in January as well to focus on a new business venture. DiNardo is the husband of former Baldwin-Whitehall school board member Nancy Sciulli DiNardo, whose …
