BRENTWOOD-BALDWIN-WHITEHALL
From the Borough Manager’s Desk:
In a year filled with challenges that required the commitment of our Borough Council,
employees, police, public safety and our residents, it also brought about many changes in our
Borough. 2019 saw the completion of long-term projects in Baldwin Borough. We are proud of
the completion of Colewood Park Phase I which took almost 3 full years to complete. The process
started with the demolition of the existing park, construction of the new sanitary sewers and an
Equalization Tank and culminating in the final construction of the new soccer field, parking lots
and playground. The new field finally opened for use at the end of August. Also completed was
the installation of nearly 2 miles of new sanitary sewers in the Gardenville area and surrounding
roadways and yards costing nearly $2.9 million. This project was both challenging and disruptive
to all who live and traveled through this neighborhood. This federally mandated project was
scheduled to take 13 months, but was completed in just under 11 months.
Also, this year Baldwin said goodbye to some longtime employees as they retired, and to others
that have moved on to other endeavors. As we begin a new chapter here in Baldwin Borough, we
would like to congratulate the deserving retirees on their years of hard work and dedication and
would also like to welcome those who either have been promoted to new positions or have been
hired to fill the shoes of those who moved on. I am looking forward to 2020 and beyond as there
will be many exciting things taking place in the Borough. In closing, I would like to thank everyone
for their continued hard work and adaptability to the many changes that have taken place in our
Borough. Best wishes to all our residents on a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year!
Robert T. Firek, P.E.
Borough Manager
