Lewisburg Borough sets June meeting schedule for council and planning board
Lewisburg’s June calendar puts three public meetings on the clock, including HARB at 5 p.m. and council work session at 6:30 p.m. on June 9.
Lewisburg residents watching a renovation, driveway permit or downtown design question will have three June meetings to track, starting June 9 with a 5 p.m. Historical Architectural Review Board session and a 6:30 p.m. Borough Council work session.
The borough’s June 2026 meeting calendar shows the Historical Architectural Review Board will meet Tuesday, June 9, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the Borough Council Chambers at 55 South Fifth Street. That same night, Borough Council will hold its monthly work session from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on the second Tuesday of the month. The Lewisburg Planning Commission will meet Wednesday, June 10, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., and Borough Council will return on Tuesday, June 16, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. for its regular monthly meeting in the same chambers.
Those dates matter because Lewisburg’s own planning and design boards shape the rules that can change how streets, buildings and neighborhoods look and function. The borough describes itself as a historic community on the Susquehanna River and a primary commercial center in Union County with the greatest density of persons anywhere in the county, a profile that makes land-use decisions especially visible. The borough also says permits are required for solicitation, sidewalk repair or replacement and driveways, which means property questions often move through a formal process before any work begins.
The Historical Architectural Review Board, or HARB, is a seven-member committee appointed by Borough Council. It reviews plans for new construction and exterior changes within the Historic District and recommends whether a Certificate of Appropriateness should be issued. Under Pennsylvania’s Historic District Act, municipalities can designate local historic districts and require that certificate before certain work, so the June 9 HARB meeting could directly affect renovations, additions, demolitions and other visible changes in the borough’s historic areas.
The borough’s calendar also gives residents a clear place to go if they want to speak before decisions are final. Borough Council work sessions are where members often sort through details before formal votes, while the Planning Commission is a key stop for development and growth questions. Lewisburg Borough lists its office at 55 South Fifth Street, Lewisburg, PA 17837, with office hours Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The borough can be reached at 570-523-3614 or office@lewisburgborough.org. For anyone following a property change, a neighborhood dispute or a downtown project, those June meetings are the ones that will set the pace.
