Maytown youths want rec center Maytown parents and teenagers asked the East Donegal Supervisors for a teen recreation area at last Thursday’s meeting. Some of the local teen- agers who congregate in Maytown Square feel they are being harassed by the police, and many older residents don’t like having the kids around the square. The group first asked that the old township shed be designated as a place where the kids can hang out. The supervisors were sympa- thetic to the idea, but refused on the grounds that the building is improperly zoned for such a use and, in any case, is up for sale. The supervisors suggest- ed that the group ask for a variance and then return at another meeting. Will Newman, a teenager, proposed that a section be set aside for field hockey. The supervisors accepted this idea and designated the rear of the Fire Hall for that use. Parents will donate goal posts and fencing. The supervisors also said they will investigate funding for a youth center. In other business, the revised plans submitted by Farmers First Bank for the new branch office were accepted. The new bank building will be at the corner of Oremine Road and Rte. 441. The entrance will be off Oremine Road.
