A property on Frothingham Avenue is being donated to Jeannette and city officials said a home on it may be rehabilitated or demolished. City council last week accepted the donation of 148 Frothingham Ave. in a 4-1 vote. Councilwoman Michelle Langdon cast the opposing vote. City manager Ethan Keedy said demolition is an option, as is potentially rehabilitating the home. Either project could be funded through dedicated streams of county, state or federal dollars, he said.
