Environmental Advisory Committee Meeting

Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 18 subject tags

The Moon Township Environmental Advisory Council met May 11 and approved April’s meeting minutes after correcting a reference to a “Recycling Day” flyer redesign. A council member announced that an employee has joined the township as the new administrative assistant, though she has limited sustainability experience. No new land development plans were discussed, but the council noted the township’s 2017 plan to upgrade the Thorn Run Interchange, replacing the current exit ramp with one near the Marriott and adding traffic lights at the new ramp’s end and near the 911 Air Force Reserve Base.

Under old business, members reviewed the successful April 24 Earth Day event, reporting that children turned in over 69 worksheets, about 200 plants were given out, and more than 100 flyers promoting the At Your Door service were distributed. The Boggs School Road Cleanup was rescheduled to May 14 from 8 to 10 a.m., with a rain date decision to be made by a council member on May 13. The June council meeting was moved from June 7 to June 1. A council member is still working to create a Moon Environmental Advisory Council Facebook page and will need to include a disclaimer clause similar to the township’s page; he will email a township official with his overall plan. For the June 4 Recycling Day, a council member provided a vendor location and traffic flow map, and members agreed to add Creative Use people on the sidewalk across from Global Links; assignments will be finalized at the June 1 meeting.

A council member noted that the next Comprehensive Plan Update meeting will review requests for proposals for the township marketing analysis. She also attended the Montour Run Watershed Association meeting and encouraged others to attend future meetings. Members were reminded of the Ohio River Trail Council open house on May 12 at Robin Hill. A council member noted his family may join the Hollow Oak Land Trust. The meeting adjourned at 6:44 p.m.
