The Holmesburg Civic Association conducted some business last week before adjourning for its annual holiday party.
For 2017, members are planning to monitor several neighborhood properties, including a planned scrap metal business at 7777 State Road; a triplex being converted into a duplex at Walker and McMenamy streets; and a proposed new use for a building on the Missionary Servants of the Most Blessed Trinity ground on Solly Avenue.
In other news, an aide to City Councilman Bobby Henon delivered a $1,000 Philadelphia Activities Fund grant.
The Holmesburg Civic Association has not decided whether its next meeting will be in January or February. ••
