Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 8 subject tags
The Mooncrest Historic Overlay Advisory Committee, formally the Historical Architectural Review Board (HARB), reorganized for 2016 at its January 13 meeting, reappointing a chairperson and a vice chairperson. The board voted to shift its regular meeting date to the third Wednesday of each month, a week before the Board of Supervisors Workshop, to streamline the Certificate of Appropriateness review process; the 5:30 pm time and Conference Room A location remain unchanged. Minutes from October 21, 2015 were approved as amended. Under new business, the board noted that a resident of 1246 Maple Street Extension has requested her home be added to the preservation plan inventory; staff will submit her information for formal review. An employee of the Historical Society presented the 2016 program schedule, which includes monthly meetings on the first Monday at 6:30 pm, and detailed the Historic Sign Project with planned sites at Olsen Park, the Montour Rail Road, and Carnot. An employee announced that MCA-TV’s Public Awareness Weekend will be held April 1-2, 2016, from 9 am to 9 pm, and reminded members to reserve their participation slots. For 2016, the board set four priorities: updating the Design Guidelines as the top goal, encouraging Mooncrest Neighborhood Association redevelopment, finding a qualified replacement for an absent member, and creating lists of approved contractors and products for use by historic district residents and property owners. An employee also reported on her visit to the Dormont Historical Society, praising its extensive display area and the repurposing of a renovated school building into the municipal building. The meeting adjourned at 6:45 pm; the next session is February 17, 2016.The Mooncrest Historic Overlay Advisory Committee, formally the Historical Architectural Review Board (HARB), reorganized for 2016 at its January 13 meeting, reappointing a chairperson and a vice chairperson.
