Original Broadcast Date: Thursday, December 9, 2010
One Towanda resident told WVIA that if all the trucks were painted military camouflage, you’d think they were being occupied by an unfriendly foreign power. But drive through downtown and see what money can do – every storefront is occupied, every parking place taken, hotels are filled and rents have tripled. Some once dirt-poor farmers are millionaires, but not everyone’s happy.
Joining WVIA President Bill Kelly in the Keystone Theatre in Towanda to discuss the issues are Bradford County Commissioner Doug McLinko, Towanda Borough Manager Tom Fairchild Jr., Standing Stone Township Secretary Diane Ward, Bradford County land owner Jim VanBlarcom, and Janice Lobdell representing the gas industry.
“Live from Boom Town Towanda†was produced in association with The Daily & Sunday Review, the countywide newspaper for Bradford County and surrounding region, a Times-Shamrock Communications newspaper.
