Bridgeville Borough Council will hold its regularly scheduled monthly meeting tonight, and you can attend it from the comfort of your home.
For the first time ever, council will meet via internet videoconference.
At 6:30 p.m., there will be a public hearing regarding the proposed pet crematorium at 131 Washington Ave. Then at 7 p.m., the regular monthly meeting begins.
To take part, or to simply watch, you’ll have to download Zoom, the free videoconferencing app that has America’s favorite pandemic-era meeting tool. You can use a desktop, laptop, smartphone, or tablet:
- Zoom for Windows/Mac (Zoom.us)
- Zoom for iPhone/iPad (Apple App Store)
- Zoom for Android (Google Play Store)
After you download, you’ll create a free account.
Then, you’ll click “Join” and enter the following information:
Meeting ID: 7328600080
Password: 032445
You can test it ahead of time to make sure that you’re connection properly. If you join before the meeting starts, you’ll see a message like this:

It appears that there will be a public comment portion of the meeting. Residents are encouraged to submit public comment, in advance, by contacting the Borough Manager, Lori Collins, at (412) 221-6015, Ext. 11, or by email to: lcollins@bridgevilleboro.com
If you cannot attend, the meeting video will be posted online to the borough’s website for later viewing, Collins said.
The borough planning commission and zoning hearing board will also be conducting meetings via livestream later this month. It is unclear whether the Bridgeville Parking Authority will do the same.
