Mark McDonald, with Palo Inc. out of Clarion, sweeps the new sidewalk around the East First Street side of St. Stephen Catholic Church in Oil City on Tuesday as the weeks-long project at the church wraps up. Theresa Zlotnicki, with St. Joseph Parish of the Oil City Catholic Community, said St. Stephen Church had mold in it along with issues with water in the basement. McDonald said Palo installed new drains and in the process tore up and replaced the sidewalk on the East First Street side of the church. (By Kara O’Neil)
