Dormont, PA – The Borough of Dormont has been recognized as a 2023 Banner Community by County Executive Rich Fitzgerald and the Allegheny League of Municipalities (ALOM). The program, now in its 11th year, recognizes municipalities that have focused their operations on professional development, prudent fiscal management, transparency, accountability, and proactive communications. This work, in turn, engages community stakeholders. The Borough of Dormont is one of the organizations recognized this year. “It is an honor for Dormont to receive the banner community designation for the eighth year in a row. I’m proud of both our staff and elected officials who work hard to make sure that the borough meets the important benchmarks to earn this distinction every year.” said Council President Daniele Ventresca.
