The City of Hazleton received the first allotment of much-needed trash receptacles that have been placed in the Downtown area. Thanks to a donation, and coordination of the project from the Chamber’s Downtown committee, a donation from PPL Corporation, and the in-kind donation from the Keystone Job Corps Center, forty-one new trash receptacles are in the process of being manufactured with eight being completed to date and placed on sidewalks in the Downtown area.

According to Bill Spear, Chamber Downtown chairman, “This project was a direct result of our Downtown committee’s suggestions to use the talents of the students at the Keystone Job Corps Center. We all thought it would be a great opportunity for us to get a product that we desperately need to help rid the area of litter, and a terrific opportunity to work with the students and staff in the trades department at the Keystone Job Corps Center.” Spear continued, “We know we have an excellent source of talent right here in our own back yard and we wanted to take full advantage of this talent. The committee could have simply purchased the entire unit from a company but felt that this was certainly the way to proceed with the students.”
