North Tonawanda City Hall

 

By: Arthur Pappas

Mayor of North Tonawanda

Despite the fact that the number of cases in Niagara County continue to increase, the infection rate of 7.1% for our region keeps lowering.  We have 1104 cases, 108 0f them in NT and 70 individuals have died.  But the signs are positive and if we continue to social distance and wear the mask we will keep on the downward trend.

We have now entered Phase II along with additionally outside dining being allowed.  For those businesses wishing to know mandatory guidelines they can go to Niagaracountybusiness.com.  If a business needs face shields, they can be obtained at Custom Laser in Lockport.

 

North Tonawanda Mayor Art Pappas

 

Additionally, you can go to the City website to gain information by the CET group in NT.  Thank you to those who have had valuable input on the team.

Watching the news, you see disturbing incidences and images but luckily, we have not had to endure those kinds of situations.  Our law enforcement officers have been doing an exemplary job of trying to keep residents and buildings in NT safe.  Our gratitude goes to them for the protection they provide daily.

As of June 29th summer day camps may open with no stay overs allowed.   Once we move into Phase III and restaurants open, we may be able to open a few other things in town as well, providing there are no groups of more than 10.  Please continue to observe the Governors orders and stay safe in these unsettling times.

Far Too Often, Promises Have Proved Empty; Niagara Falls Needs Progress And Strategic Planning

By tony Farina · August 4, 2026

By Tony Farina Promises are nice and they bring hope for the future. But unfortunately, most of the time, promises have fallen flat for the City of Niagara Falls, some succeeding but many turning out to be empty promises and major disappointments. At this point, Niagara Falls doesn’t need more failed promises. What the city needs is progress to build a better future and a plan to make it work. City leadership must bring it all together. While there are promises to build a better future on the table and being talked about, like Centennial Park and the Niagara Digital

Governor Issues Response To McMurray’s Letter on Slag Concerns

By tony Farina · August 4, 2026

By Tony Farina The radioactive slag bubbling up across Niagara County in recent weeks, triggering state and federal testing and some remedial work and family relocations, is the ongoing and seemingly never-ending legacy of the environmental desecration of the past 100-plus years by massive corporations dumping toxic waste that was the subject of Christen Civiletto’s book Thundering Waters. “What we have again is an environmental storm,” said attorney and former Grand Island Supervisor Nate McMurray, a candidate for election to the 45th District State Assembly seat now open because of the retirement of Angelo Morinello. McMurray will run for the
