Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 23 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors convened its regular meeting on February 5, 2014, at 7:00 PM, following a 6:00 PM executive session. All four supervisors were present. After the pledge and roll call, the board unanimously approved the minutes from the October, November, and December 2013 budget and workshop meetings, as well as the January 6, 2014 reorganization meeting. In recognition, the board issued proclamations honoring five Eagle Scouts, with each supervisor reading a proclamation. The board then took several action items. They approved a request to reduce the performance security for the Sonoma Ridge Estates Phase 5 Plan of Lots from $645,865.00 to $17,800.00, as recommended by the Township Consulting Engineer. They also exonerated the real estate tax collector from collecting delinquent 2013 taxes, transferring that responsibility to Keystone Municipal Collections. An employee was appointed to a three-year term on the Cable TV Advisory Board, but a nomination for a two-year term was tabled due to no candidates. An employee was appointed as Planner/Economic Development Coordinator at an annual salary of $60,000. The board continued the public hearing on Speedway LLC's conditional use application for a gas station at 1225 Maple Street Ext. After testimony, the board recessed for legal advice and voted to continue the hearing to March 5, 2014, requesting Speedway submit a written response to the Michael Baker review letter and a plan for proposed traffic improvements. The Township Manager's report included announcements about the new Facebook page, MCA-TV weekend, park pavilion rentals, library events, and an update on the Wal-Mart project. The board approved paying all bills, including checks and EFTs across various funds. There was no public comment, and supervisors had no remarks, though one thanked the Road Department for recent work. The meeting adjourned at 10:00 PM.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors convened its regular meeting on February 5, 2014, at 7:00 PM, following a 6:00 PM executive session.
