An exciting milestone has been reached with the formal
creation of a Canal Towns Partnership. Since early 2009, representatives from Harpers Ferry have been working together with
other towns along the C&O Canal the National Park Service to
form a working partnership to highlight and promote the region‘s varied and growing number of recreational and tourism
opportunities.
Harpers Ferry, Bolivar and Shepherdstown have joined
Maryland towns Cumberland, Hancock, Williamsport, Brunswick, and Point of Rocks, as gateway towns to the C&O Canal
towpath, anticipating that the Partnership's efforts will attract
increased tourism into our towns for goods, services and enjoyment of our local history. The Partnership is patterned after
the very successful Trail Town initiative along the Great Allegheny Passage in
Pennsylvania.
The Partnership will be governed by a Board consisting
of representatives from each of the towns, Harpers Ferry and
Bolivar are currently being represented by Betsy Bainbridge
and Steve Paradis. Sponsored by the Harpers Ferry Foundation, a local committee has been working on projects to improve signage, publish a services brochure, install bike parking,
erect an information kiosk, and study improved access to replace the bridge‘s circular staircase.
Everyone is invited to attend the Partnership launch
Friday, September 23, 10 AM, at C&O Headquarters, 16500
Shepherdstown Pike, Sharpsburg (contact Lois Turco at 304
876-9141 or [email protected] for more information).
The Partnership’s new website www.canaltowns.org is designed to further enhance marketing of this new program.

MESSAGE FROM CHIEF BROWN
To the Harpers Ferry and Bolivar community, I would like to take this opportunity to solicit any concerns
that you the citizens may have. The Department is moving forward providing a better service for the citizens and
the community as a whole. We want to inform every one of the reality in which we live today and make it a safer
place. We need all citizens to take a part in community policing. As a result of this request, officers are stopping
in local businesses and throughout the community making their presence known.
We have also formed a Police Committee consisting of representatives from each town council and myself. We meet the 3rd Monday of each month at 8:00 a.m. in the Bolivar Community Center. This meeting is
open to the public. I ask that you continue to be the eyes and ears for the Police Department and report any suspicious activity to us immediately. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact the office at
304-535-6366.

Vision Survey Status
David Beniamino was hired by the town to guide the community through a visioning process. The goal of this
visioning process is to develop a vision document that will be presented to the Harpers Ferry Town Council and
include possible action items and/or recommendations for the council‘s consideration. More information about
this process is provided in the July newsletter at harpersferrywv.us
The Vision Committee is completing its environmental scan, which is a detailed list of facts regarding the town
finances, demographics, utility infrastructure, and other key information for use by all stakeholders. David Beniamino is currently chairing the vision group meetings that are essentially an analysis of the scan output. This process is in preparation for the community-wide stakeholder meetings that will be designed to elicit views from specific stakeholders regarding the information in the environmental scan document. These meetings will be the first
real opportunity for the public to provide input into this visioning process.
The outreach committee will soon be contacting all stakeholders via email, US Postal Service or hand delivered
packages with information about schedules for these community stakeholder meetings. Stakeholders will also be
given the environmental scan document and the set of questions that will be provided to community meeting attendees as well as those people who are not able to attend the community meetings.

Communications Task Force Forming
After discussion of the issues surrounding the recent interruption of water service at its Sept. 12 th meeting, the
Town Council voted to establish a task force to research strategies for communicating with the public in emergency and non-emergency situations. The task force, to be chaired by Betsy Bainbridge, is to include representatives
of merchants and residents of Harpers Ferry and Bolivar; the Water, Public Service, Planning, and Landmarks
Commissions; the Police Department; the Fire Department; and other groups needing to communicate with the
public. Volunteers from these groups are urged to join the Task Force by calling Town Hall at 304.535.2206.
Betsy anticipates the Task Force will take a maximum of 3 meetings to identify when the public needs to receive
information, communication strategies available to us, and when which strategies should be utilized and by whom.
The recommendations of the Task Force will be put to the Town Council for a vote as quickly as possible. The first
meeting will take place in early October. Please consider volunteering to participate in this Task Force.

Elks Run Study Committee Represented at
Two Watershed Meetings
The Elks Run Study Committee was represented at an informational meeting for local watershed
groups about the West Virginia Phase II Watershed Implementation Plan (WIP) related to the Chesapeake
Bay Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL). The meeting, held on August 24 in Romney, WV, was an opportunity for WV state agency staff to share summaries of the Phase I WIP strategies and to explore ways in
which watershed groups can be involved in shaping -- and later implementing -- the more detailed Phase II
WIP.
The Elks Run Study Committee was also representated at the Chesapeake Bay Summit on August 31
in Martinsburg that brought together the different workgroups who have been working on Phase I strategies
to discuss their results. The four workgroups included the Wastewater Group (Jimmy Williams, manager of
the Harpers Ferry Sewage Treatment Plant, participated in this group); Developed Lands Group (mostly municipal planners, engineers, and development community representatives); Agriculture and Forestry
Workgroup (producers, conservation district supervisors, and representatives of various agencies) and Elected Officials Workgroup (Herb Snyder and Lyn Widmeyer were our state and local representatives whose
legislative efforts were noted).
The Elks Run Study Committee was involved in the Phase I effort by meeting regularly with the WV
Department of Environmental Protection, the Freshwater Institute, and Jefferson County officials to lay out
long term strategies for the protection of our drinking water. The Committee also arranged to collect a year‘s
worth of data at several places on the Elks Run and the Elk Branch and to assess stream bank erosion. While
Phase I focused on plans and data collection, Phase II focuses on actual implementation of projects designed
to improve the amount of fecal coliform impairment in the Elks Run watershed. The Elks Run Study Committee is currently partnering with the Eastern Panhandle Conservation District to carry out the Elks Run Water Quality Improvement Project. This is a significant Phase II venture that provides funding to farmers and
homeowners to implement best management practices that will keep our water source clean and safe.
At both meetings Harpers Ferry and Bolivar were singled out in praise of their stormwater management efforts including residential rain barrels, the stormwater management project, and educational outreach.

Water Commission Ordinance To Be Revised
The Water Commission is working on revisions to the Water Commission Ordinance, Article 901.
The proposed changes will involve expanding the composition of citizens eligible to serve on the Commission to include a voting member residing within the service area but not necessarily within Town of Harpers
Ferry, and to adjust certain fees associated with the administrative costs of operating the water company.
At a hearing on July 28, 2011, the West Virginia Public Service Commission‘s Administrative Law
Judge recommended that the Town of Harpers Ferry allow input from water customers living outside its
boundaries. To that end, the Water Commission will propose a revision to Section 901.02 of the ordinance
pertaining to Membership of the Water Commission.
The Water Commission is also addressing the Water Company‘s administrative costs. It has become
evident that these costs are not adequately covered by the existing schedule of rates in Section 905.05 of the
Ordinance. The Ordinance needs an appropriate fee structure for service connection and disconnection, and
special meter readings.
It is hoped that the first reading and discussion of the proposed changes will take place at the October meeting of the Town Council. When the proposed changes are available, they will be posted on the
Town‘s website and at the Town Hall for public consideration.

Regarding the Water Shut Off
On Friday, August 19, the water supply was shut
off so that a fire hydrant could be hooked into the 10 inch
line that supplies Bolivar and Harpers Ferry. The project
took 6 hours to complete due to some technical issues that
could not be avoided.
This project was originally scheduled for Monday,
August 22. The project had to be moved to the previous
Friday since school opened the following week..
Public Service Commission (PSC) regulations
require us to notify the public in advance. We chose three
ways of notification: radio & television, public posting and
e-mail. Craig Miller from the PSC stated that we had exceeded his expectations of notification.
The State Health Department required us to issue
a Boil Water Notice (BWN). This is a state prepared document over which we have no control. This notice is required to be issued as a precaution to the customers. We
cannot change the wording. The Notice is to be followed at
the customers’ discretion.
We understand that the BWN may have taken
customers by surprise. The previous managers of the Water
Department apparently did not follow the State mandated
rules for public notification. We will continue to follow
these rules and issue the BWN when required.
As an extra precaution, the Water Department
asked local Health Department officials to check in on the
job site to ensure that all regulations were being met. A
Health Department official was present during the sampling
process for the required bacteriological testing. With our
800 service connections, we are only required to collect one
sample - however, we elected to collect two samples. When
the lab confirmed that we passed the tests, the BWN was
lifted.
- Submitted by Josh Carter, Water Department Manager
From the Mayor - I authorized the earlier hydrant installation to
August 19, to ensure that any possible complications that might
develop would not impact students returning to school the following week. We should all be grateful that everything went well with
the project.
I apologize for any inconvenience this short notice may have caused
to merchants and residents, as well as the confusion over the required Boil Water Notice that followed. We are working at improving the notification process so that this won’t happen again.
Please read the article on the Communications Task Force and
how you can help us improve this process.
Thank you for your patience.

New Place to Eat in Town & It’s Not Just Pizza!
Mena‘s Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant opened its doors this past July in Harpers Ferry.
The restaurant features several options for complete Italian dinners starting at $8.50, in addition to a
variety of subs, sides and - of course - pizza. The most unusual dish is spaghetti with garlic and oil and
sausage.
Filomena Ariano is the owner. She named her place simply ―Mena‘s‖ - hoping it would be easier for
folks to pronounce and remember.
We asked Mena - as she likes to be called - what is the most difficult part about owning a restaurant.
Her reply: ―Nothing really. Just one day at a time.‖ Her positive attitude is obvious from the smile on
Mena‘s face as she greets diners when they come through the door.
Mena tells us that she loves meeting everyone in Town, as well as the tourists who come by. She wants
to thank everyone for their support since she opened.
The restaurant sports a fresh, bright and airy look and has plenty of tables for seating. Mena has completely renovated the space formerly occupied by King‘s Pizza on the same site.
Mena‘s is located on the first floor at 914 Washington Street and has plenty of parking for those ―take
out‖ orders. The building was constructed in 1951 as a Masonic Lodge, which occupies the second
floor.
