Bethlehem City Council
is accepting letters of interest and resumes from

Controller of the City of Bethlehem, as a result of
the resignation on January 31, 2012 of Meg Holland,
City Controller. Individuals can state their interest
in filling the vacancy, to serve beginning on or before
March 2, 2012 until January 6, 2014, by submitting

The Pennsylvania Third Class City Code, Section 1701,
states the Qualifications of City Controller as follows:

throughout his term of office.
This is a NON-EMERGENCY announcement
for City of Bethlehem’s drinking water customers.
Beginning on
January 6th, 2012 and continuing through the next
four weeks, the City of Bethlehem will suspend adding
fluoride to your drinking water. The temporary suspension
is due to the replacement of a fluoride tank. Fluoride
is routinely added to the drinking water at a rate
of 0.7 mg/L. Again, this is not an emergency. The
temporary suspension will not change the quality of
your drinking water.
If you have any questions,
please call Water Control at 610-865-7077.
