• Addision Court residents speak on future of affordable housing in State College (wjactv.com) — Addison Court residents are urging neighbors to speak out at State College Borough Council’s June 18 meeting against rezoning that could clear the way for high-rise student housing on the site. Tenants say they’re facing poor communication, declining maintenance and the possible loss of low-income housing status, and community members packed Schlow Library to hear how they can help protect affordable housing downtown. 
• State College Council Mulls Parking Ordinance Changes, Pilot Programs (statecollege.com) — State College Borough Council is weighing new parking rules that could add special-event neighborhood parking fees, extend downtown meter limits, and tighten enforcement for chronic violators. Council is also considering one-way conversions on several downtown streets to add parking and improve safety, with key votes expected June 15 and in early July that could change how you park and drive around town.
• ‘The Tussey Mountain Moonshiners' concert, picnic to be held in Centre County (wtaj.com) — A free outdoor concert and picnic featuring The Tussey Mountain Moonshiners is coming to South Hills School of Business and Technology’s State College campus on June 21.
