• West York board adopts budget with tax hike and cuts to aides' hours (ydr.com) — West York Area school officials have approved a $77 million budget that raises property taxes and cuts hours for 20 full-time classroom aides to help close a multimillion-dollar deficit. Residents and several board members warned the move could hurt students, especially those needing special education and language support, but a 6-3 majority said deeper cuts or furloughs might follow without immediate action. 
• York County pizza and sub shop fails recent health inspection (ydr.com) — State inspectors recently found multiple food safety violations at Lattuca’s Pizza and Sub on West Market Street in West York, including hygiene, labeling, sanitation, and plumbing issues, though some were corrected on-site. The report also lists several other York County stores and restaurants that passed inspections, helping residents gauge where local food safety stands right now.
• Lancaster Township swears in new police chief; Seibel had been acting chief (lancasteronline.com) — Lancaster Township has made acting chief Justin Seibel its permanent police chief, highlighting his role in building the new department. Local readers may recall Seibel previously served as chief of West York Borough, and township officials say his past situation there did not influence their unanimous decision to hire him.
