Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 18 subject tags
The Mooncrest Historic Overlay Advisory Committee, also serving as the Historical Architectural Review Board, convened on March 12, 2014, with four members present and one member absent. The board approved the minutes of February 12, 2014, with minor corrections. Under new business, an employee reported on the Mooncrest Advisory Board, chaired by a representative of Robert Morris University’s Student Civic Engagement office. The advisory board includes representatives from the Felician Sisters, RMU, the Township Manager, Moon Area School District, and Saint Margaret Mary Church. The board has retained the Bayer Center for Nonprofit Management to develop a strategic plan for the Mooncrest Community Center, aiming to create goals and an action plan for more comprehensive community services. The existing afterschool program, run by the Felician Sisters, serves students only through sixth grade, and the board seeks to expand it. The strategic plan is expected by June 2014. A board member asked whether a Mooncrest resident sits on the advisory board; the employee was uncertain but promised to inquire. She also noted that a new program director has been hired to assist a representative at the community center. An employee presented an update on the arrowhead project, reporting that one arrowhead found near Scally’s golf course was dated to approximately 1,700 years ago. He also outlined the Old Moon Township Historical Society’s 2014 programs and distributed the Moon News newsletter and membership information. Under old business, the employee reported contacting an architect and resident, who expressed interest in serving on the HARB. A board member summarized progress on the Mooncrest history booklet: a reviewer completed a final review, the board member wrote the forward, and materials have been sent to a designer for draft design layout. Two board members met to prepare speaking topics for a public awareness program scheduled for March 14-15. An employee noted that a resident is waiting for her family to attend a dedication ceremony for a placard, likely in May or June. The meeting adjourned at 7:00 p.m. The next meeting is set for April 9, 2014, at 5:30 p.m. at the Municipal Building.The Mooncrest Historic Overlay Advisory Committee, also serving as the Historical Architectural Review Board, convened on March 12, 2014, with four members present and one member absent.
