Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 64 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors, meeting in a workshop session on July 31, 2013, approved a series of eight motions tied to the Walmart development on University Boulevard, including a development agreement, a stormwater operations and maintenance agreement, an indemnification agreement for highway occupancy permit facilities, and several easement agreements for traffic signal mast arms and a pedestrian crosswalk. All motions carried unanimously. The board also approved a first addendum to the development agreement with Verizon Wireless, modifying the insurance cancellation notice requirement to allow a 30-day notice for any reason except non-payment, to enable Verizon Wireless to proceed with construction of a pole essential to Moon Park lighting. Two bond reduction requests were approved: No. 7 for Building 100 of the Pittsburgh International Business Park, reducing the bond from $564,095.51 to $234,775.10, and No. 6 for Building 110, reducing from $1,180,671.80 to $570,427.55, both as recommended by the alternate township engineer. During public comment, a representative from Elite Runners requested road closures for the Harvest Moon race on October 12. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board chairs updated the board on park priorities, with the board agreeing to move forward with a maintenance building, basketball court, and restrooms, possibly funded through a bond issue. Robert Morris University presented proposed shuttle stop locations, and the board directed continued work with the township manager and solicitor. The board authorized $9,999 for a GPS unit for stormwater mapping, to be used by planning, parks, and public works. The board also discussed the field-use lighting policy and the PennDOT contribution agreement for the Montour Run and Beaver Grade Road intersection project, deferring action to a regular meeting. An amendment to the development agreement for Marrone Auto Repair Shop, reducing insurance requirements, was supported. The board directed the township manager and solicitor to review the comprehensive plan consultant’s request for additional funding and decided to attend the August Planning Commission meeting to discuss the plan.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors, meeting in a workshop session on July 31, 2013, approved a series of eight motions tied to the Walmart development on University Boulevard, including a development agreement, a stormwater operations and maintenance agreement, an indemnification agreement for highway occupancy permit facilities, and several easement agreements for traffic signal mast arms and a pedestrian crosswalk.
