We are having a benefit for the family in Coryville who lost their home and all of their belongings to the fire a couple weeks ago. I do have an event page set up on Facebook as well. Wondering if you could share that for us as we are hoping to reach many and know you have many followers who may otherwise not see our event.
The Cuba Police Department would like to introduce Officer Lewis Pettit to the community. Officer Pettit recently graduated from the Alfred State Police Academy. Officer Pettit will be filling 1 of 2 vacancies currently in our department. Here is a summary of his background in his own words.
First, I would like to thank Chief Burch, the members of the Town Board, and the rest of those who have allowed me to be in the position I am in. I do not take the honor of serving and protecting the community and the Town of Cuba lightly.
I grew up right next door in the Town of Bolivar. I graduated from Bolivar-Richburg in 2017 and moved to Canandaigua to attend Finger Lakes Community College. After completing an associate degree from FLCC in 2019, I moved to Alfred to attend Alfred State College. There, I chose to study Criminal Justice with the goal of a career in law enforcement. This past May, I graduated from Alfred State College with a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and began the Police Academy just a week after. In August, I was hired as a patrolman and have been nothing short of excited to begin my law enforcement career here in Cuba.
Also pictured is Officer Mackney who was recognized at the graduation ceremony for his commitment and dedication to the academy and the recruits throughout each phase.
Agriculture Secretary Seeks Proposals for $200,000 in Matching Grants to Boost Hemp Sales, Exports
10/17/2022
Harrisburg, PA – Today, Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding called for proposals from nonprofit marketing and promotion organizations for projects aimed at increasing sales, export or consumer awareness of Pennsylvania hemp products. The department plans to award $200,000 in matching funds to reimburse up to half of project costs, with a minimum grant amount of $1,000.
“Hemp has presented a unique opportunity to grow an industry from the ground up, supplying seemingly limitless sustainable construction materials, fiber and food products,” said Sec. Redding. “These grants will feed a new industry that was once a staple of Pennsylvania’s economy and is again presenting opportunities for farm income and jobs as well as new possibilities for climate-friendly, environmentally beneficial products.”
The department will give special consideration to projects that leverage other funding and public-private partnerships. Eligible projects may include regional or national promotion.
Projects must have started on or after July 1, 2022 and must be completed on or before June 30, 2023.
The minimum matching grant is $1,000. Applications will be selected in a competitive process.
Qualified nonprofits may apply for grants through the PA Department of Community and Economic Development online application system. The application period closes Friday, December 2, 2022 at 5:00 PM. Full grant guidelines can be found in the October 15 issue of the Pennsylvania BulletinOpens In A New Window.
These matching grants are one way in which the Wolf Administration has fed growth in the fledgling hemp industry, creating Pennsylvania Specialty Crop Block grants through the historic PA Farm Bill when federal funding for hemp was not yet available, and funding key R&D beginning in 2019 through the department’s research budget. Hemp-specific grant investments to date have topped $923,000.

Harrisburg, PA – Acting Secretary of Health and Pennsylvania Physician General Dr. Denise Johnson today announced changes to birth certificate eligibility requirements, providing access to individuals as young as 16 and creating new fee waiver options.
“When the department learned that some minors experiencing homelessness or navigating through the foster or juvenile justice system were struggling to receive their birth certificate, we made appropriate changes,” Dr. Johnson said. “Now people as young as 16 can access their personal vital records which can help them establish their identity.”
Earlier this month the department updated the birth certificate request process to lower the age of eligible applicants from 18 years old to 16 years old. The lower age will make it easier for 16- and 17-year-old individuals to obtain their birth certificate, which is necessary to apply for a driver’s license or college admission.
In addition, a new fee waiver option was implemented this month to allow individuals aged 16-24 who are, or have been, involved in foster care or juvenile justice to access their birth certificate without the $20 fee. A separate fee waiver application was created for individuals experiencing homelessness.
Each year, the department receives tens of thousands of birth certificate applications. Thus far in 2022 the department has received more than 32,000 mailed, and 35,000 walk-in applications.
