This Week's Headline News

Correction

Two reporting errors were made in the article, ''New county building to open in 2009,'' published on Page A1 of the Sentinel's May 6 issue:
 
The article reported that state and federal funding is being used to finance construction of the new Upper Dauphin Human Services Center east of Elizabethville. This is incorrect. Private funds are being used to finance construction, not government funds.
 
State and federal funding is being used to help agencies that are renting space in the building pay for their monthly rentals. No money from Dauphin County's General Fund budget is being used to finance
construction.
 
The article stated that the property is being provided by Donlo Partnership. What should have been reported is that Donlo Partnership owns the property and is leasing it to the county. Financing for construction was obtained by Donlo through PNC Bank.
