The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on March 30, 2016, with all five members present. The chairman announced an executive session from March 22 regarding personnel. Public comment was empty. A representative of Moon Township Little League requested paving at the Boggs School Road entrance; the township manager said Public Works would repair the driveway apron. The representative also sought year-round parking on the grass area near Boggs School, proposing a split-rail fence to protect a historic tree. Supervisors discussed a $16,000 plan for a paved ADA-compliant lot, but a supervisor suggested allowing grass parking with repair obligations. The Board tabled the concession stand request pending further discussion. On the scoreboard dispute, a supervisor suggested alternatives like a ribbon-cutting or plaque, which the township manager offered to provide. Field allocation between baseball and softball was deferred. The Planning Commission Chairman discussed the shooting range ordinance. The solicitor read the current prohibition on firearms, air guns, and slingshots, with exceptions for licensed hunters, target shooting organizations, and law enforcement. The matter was tabled. The Planning Director reported on several items: a rezoning and text amendment for a senior living facility at 1026 Brodhead Road, with a public hearing set for June; Maronda Homes' revised Wiltshire Estates PRD plan reducing units from 164 to 162; and simple subdivision plans for Foxwood Knolls Phase 4, Crago Plan of Lots (for Patrick's Pub expansion), and Noble Woods, all slated for the April 6 agenda. The Board also discussed a RAAC GEDF grant application and an ArcGIS Online implementation proposal. The engineer reported bids for the 2016 Road Improvement Program, with Youngblood Paving apparent low bidder at $696,076 base and $959,242 with alternates, including paving for Crescent Township and MTMA driveways. Arkadia Contracting was low bidder for the Rotary Pavilion roof replacement at $50,344, under budget. Walmart construction is on schedule, with cameras requested for license plate reading. The Board discussed stormwater permits, the Brooks School sidewalk project, and the Thorn Run Interchange LED lighting. The Parks Director reported on field improvements and the new pavilion installation in early June. Earth Day is set for April 24 at Robin Hill Park. The township manager updated the Board on Mooncrest Community Center water damage repairs and a Beaver Grade Road puddle issue.
