McCandless Township Sanitary Authority (MTSA) operates a sanitary sewer system of 4 treatment…read moreplants, 21 pumping stations, thousands of manholes, and hundreds of miles of gravity sewer. Since 2020, I have been a customer of MTSA. I used to have an irrigation system in my yard, but in 2021, an excavation company removed it, a plumber removed the deduct meter, and West View Water Authority inspected their work. Unfortunately, for 5 years, MTSA was somehow reading my deduct meter each year (the reading number never changed) and charging me an annual fee! In 2026, MTSA mailed me a letter that the employee was not able to read it. *For almost one month*, I called and emailed multiple MTSA employees multiple times to get them to finally remove me from their deduct-meter program. An employee from the billing department said that they would be able to give me a statement credit of $45 for only the reading in 2026, not the readings in previous years. I will give a neutral rating because the sewer system appears to function properly, but I do not appreciate how I was charged hundreds of dollars for impossible readings over years and how I had to follow up for weeks to get a partial solution.

Today, I took a parent to the COVID clinic…read more It was the MOST ORGANIZED STREAMLINED EXPERIENCE. Social media said Chick Fil A should be in charge of vaccine distribution if we want to get people vaccinated quickly. Ample parking. Walked in to construction horses which created a registration line with a couple chairs along the path. No confusion on where to go. At the front of the line an "air traffic controller" directed people to open registration staff. Under 2 minutes, we were directed to the vaccine line. At the front of the vaccine line, another "air traffic controller" directed you to an open vaccinator. Any anaphylaxis to medications? Which arm for vaccine? Stand on X on floor. Receive vaccine. Directed to seating - which was paired up with social distancing between pairings. Once our sitting time was over, stopped at discharge to check out. Getting out of car to getting back in car: 22 minutes Great job by Allegheny Fire Academy & Emergency Services personnel, & the lone EMT pulling up the vaccines! We weren't permitted to take pictures - think Ford Assembly Line.

This review is limited in scope to the new Co Vid vaccine center set up here by Allegheny County…read moredepartment of health. Allegheny County has opened the fire department social hall as a vaccination center for people 65 and older only. Notifications for clinic signup can be sent via e-mail once you sign up with the county. My advice - act fast online because slots fill up within minutes. If you are fortunate to secure an appointment then you will be sent a confirmation email with your time selected on it as well as the date selected. On your scheduled day and time arrive within about a 15 minute time frame to allow yourself time to get inside. Masks are required the whole time you are there and hand sanitizer is available as you enter. Note, although this is a pay lot, parking is free if you are here for the clinic. They only ask if you or the member is over 65, have a scheduled appointment, then you can proceed inside. Once inside you go to the register desk and present your photo id. They don't want to see your health insurance or Medicare card. They will answer any questions you have and then direct you where to stand for the team to provide your injection. They have about 5 stations set up with two people at each station. The team will direct you which station to go to and then you indicate your arm of choice for the vaccine. Allegheny County is offering the Moderna vaccine here. When my turn came I was given an immunization card and a "time" card the latter of which will be surrendered when you leave. I was told that I would receive an email to let me know when to schedule my 2nd dose and if not received by the end of the third week then call the 211 scheduling number and someone would help me. After receiving the shot I went to a large socially distant sitting area with two digital clocks on the wall. My time card had the time of immunization on it and 15 minutes later time which would let me know when I can leave. No photography is allowed anywhere in the building. You are welcome to use electronic devices to pass away the time. Once your exit time arrives take the card up to the people at the desk who will ask you how you are feeling, they take the card, and you can leave. Your immunization card is filled out with the date, time, and type of vaccine received. You must fill out your name and birthdate for your records. I'm glad pretty much everything went smoothly for me and I'm hoping this center as well as the Monroeville location expand so more people can register who really want to get the vaccine. The parking lot is part of a T station park and ride and there is plenty of parking available.

What in the world is happening? For a brief moment, I wondered if a spaceship had landed in my driveway and I was in some kind of dream. But then reality hit--it was the police. My heart immediately sank. A late-night visit from law enforcement is rarely good news. The first thing I did was check on my family. As I stepped outside to speak with the officer, he informed me that he had received a call from a police department in Massachusetts. That's when my heart dropped--our daughter lives there. The officers wanted to let us know they had found her wallet. While that news was concerning, I initially assumed she had just lost it. However, when I mentioned that she was flying to France the next evening for a study abroad program, it became clear just how important this was--her credit cards, ID, and everything she needed to board the plane were inside that wallet. This review is simply to say thank you to the Malden Police Department and Officer Wade, who found her wallet and was on shift until 11 PM. I also want to thank the Monongahela, Pennsylvania police officer who came to notify us. Both departments acted so quickly, and because of their swift efforts, my daughter was able to travel as planned. Thank you for what you do--you truly made a difference for our family.

Once in late summer my dogs got out of the fence and I called them to inform them about what had happened and they showed up to look for the dogs which I caught luckily 2 doors down. I just wanted to make sure if they heard of animals running loose like 2 dogs it was mine and they don't bite. Props to the men in Blue, they are not racist like people think. Want proof... when you call them... do they ask your skin color before showing up, NO. they just do there job, and do it great. I got your backs too, like you have ours.

There are volunteers to help you if you wish to research local people, and places. There is also an old railroad caboose connected to the building, which houses part of the collection. It is worth checking out, especially if you enjoy history. They are open Tuesday through Friday, 10am - 2 pm. NOTE: Disregard the review posted below. Somehow my review of the Bridgeville Parking Authority was merged with this listing, and I am unable to delete it. The parking authority is a separate location from the historical society.
