I have just received knitting help from a very nice shop in Millvale. It is McWalker Yarns on Grant St. At some point after the virus, they will again offer classes and knitting groups. For now, they have lovely yarn and all the supplies you might need. I highly recommend it. McWalker Yarns, 303 Grant St, Millvale, telephone: 412-821-5000.

[For Sale] Balanced Body Studio Pilates Reformer
by Dana Leahy 10 Sep '20

10 Sep '20

I'm selling my pine-framed Studio Reformer. The reformer was built by Ken Endelman (the founder and owner of Balanced Body) in the 1980s; however, the entire reformer was overhauled in 2013 and the following parts were replaced and upgraded: - New carriage wheels - Side wheel retrofit kit - New oval springbar - 5 new springs (standard Balanced Body set) - New footbar padding These repairs were done by The Pilates Guy <http://www.thepilatesguy.com/> after I bought the reformer from a private owner in Los Angeles. The reformer spent several years in storage after our move from California, so it has not seen a lot of use since the upgrades. The reformer comes with the original leather straps. There is some wear and tear to the carriage padding (see the pictures) and some scuff marks on the wood, but the ride is incredibly smooth and everything is in great working order. Comes with a matching pilates box. I'm selling it because we don't really have a good place to put such a large piece of exercise equipment and I'd like someone to own it who will use it! If anyone is interested in taking a look, we can set up the reformer in our garage for a COVID-conscious contactless tryout. Located in Morningside. Asking $800. Cash and/or Venmo only.

Fwd: City of Pittsburgh Residents Invited to Provide Input on the 2021 Operating Budget
by Highland Park Pittsburgh, PA 10 Sep '20

10 Sep '20

*Published:* 09.10.2020 *Contact:* Molly Onufer Assistant Communications Director Mayor's Office 412-579-8534 molly.onufer(a)pittsburghpa.gov City of Pittsburgh Residents Invited to Provide Input on the 2021 Operating Budget PITTSBURGH, PA (September 10, 2020) The City of Pittsburgh is seeking input on the 2021 Operating Budget. Given projections of decreased revenue in 2020 and uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, input from residents is more important than ever before to ensure that the City can continue to provide critical services in an equitable manner. Following three 2021 Capital Budget Forums hosted earlier this summer, the City of Pittsburgh is hosting an online 2021 Operating Budget Forum to discuss and collect input on the 2021 Operating Budget. The City is providing a survey through its EngagePGH Platform, and is highlighting several other ways to engage: 1. Understand the Operating Budget. The Budget Guide is the very first section of the full operating document and offers insight into how the City of Pittsburgh operates. Find it here <https://apps.pittsburghpa.gov/redtail/images/8055_Operating_Budget_as_appro…> . 2. Complete the 2021 Operating Budget public input survey, available on the City's new online engagement portal here <https://engage.pittsburghpa.gov/2021-operating-budget>. The surveys are due Friday, October 16th, 2020. Residents who do not have digital access or require language access can call 311 to complete the survey over the telephone. 3. Attend an education forum. The Operating Budget Public Forum will be held on September 16, 2020 at 6 p.m. via Zoom. The forum will include staff from the Office of Management and Budget, the Department of Finance, and the Department of Law. Sign up for the forum here <https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0scu-oqzsqE9P0g-JyegyC9Zi6ez_RNf…>. Those who do not wish to participate in the forum can view it live or view a recording later at youtube.com/citychannelpittsburgh <https://www.youtube.com/citychannelpittsburgh>. 4. Submit a draft budget through Balancing Act, the City of Pittsburgh's participatory budgeting tool. The tool can be found here <https://pittsburgh.abalancingact.com/city-of-pittsburgh-2020-operating-budg…>. Balancing Act also allows residents to see an unofficial breakdown of how their tax dollars are spent each year through the Tax Receipt Tool <https://pittsburgh.abalancingact.com/taxreceipt>. 5. Watch City Council budget hearings. Residents can find the meeting schedule here <https://pittsburghpa.gov/clerk/council-meetings>. The Operating Budget functions as the legal financial plan for the City of Pittsburgh. Expenditures are spread across all City Departments, Bureaus, and Elected Offices. These expenditures represent costs resulting from the administration and distribution of governmental services. These services include, but are not limited to: - Public safety (police, fire, emergency medical services, animal care and control) - Refuse collection - Snow removal - Issuance of permits and licenses - Maintenance and programming for City of Pittsburgh parks and community recreation centers In addition, the General Fund also supports the routine administration of local government that includes employee wages and health benefits, workers’ compensation benefits, utility and fuel usage, the funding of municipal pension plans, and debt service. Recordings of Capital Budget Forums from earlier this year can be found at the City's Youtube page here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P17dQ_SOMsc&list=PL2L3ZTwe78kHVfJPiTX9GbYSr…>. Residents are still able to provide input on the 2021 Capital Budget through Balancing Act here <https://pittsburghpa.gov/omb/budget-tax-receipt-simulation>.
