The board also approved two change orders for the Moon Park Phase I electrical project, increasing the contract with R.E. Yates Electric by $950 to $340,674, and authorized a confidentiality agreement with Jordan Tax Service for tax collection records under Act 32. A resolution was passed authorizing the chairman to sign grant agreements for the West Hills Sobriety Checkpoint Program and appointing a sergeant as program director. The board ratified a lease with Laurel Capital Corporation for seven in-car video systems at $39,635 over 36 months at 2.8% interest. An additional agenda item, a $199,080.81 pay application for the Moon Park electrical contractor, was deferred to the regular meeting.

During discussion, Robert Morris University presented updated traffic and pedestrian plans for its proposed dormitory at the former Holiday Inn, with the board raising concerns about crosswalk safety at University Boulevard intersections. The board postponed action on a PennDOT contribution agreement for the Montour Run/Beaver Grade Road intersection project pending the state transportation bill. The solicitor reported that the zoning ordinance codification is nearing completion, with final documents expected by mid-August. The board approved a revised conflict waiver for the solicitor’s firm to represent Speedway on a Neville Township matter. On the tax exemption for the RMU Holiday Inn property, the board agreed to file an appeal if no agreement is reached by the July 1 public hearing. The engineer reported that the North Flaugherty Run Road bridge is open to both lanes, the 2013 road program will begin in early July on Commerce Drive, and stormwater work at 119 Beacon Hill Drive is ongoing.
