The Moon Township Environmental Advisory Council met on September 14, 2016, and approved the minutes from its August 10 meeting. The council introduced the Zoning and Property Maintenance Officer, who will focus on property maintenance and has expressed interest in green initiatives. An employee reported that the Senior Living Community at Broadhead Road development plan is undergoing redesign, with updates to follow. The council elected a member to attend the 3 Rivers Wet Weather Conference on October 12-13, and an employee noted that ALCOSAN would host an open house on September 17. In old business, a member is leading efforts to establish a social media presence, with an update expected at the next meeting. The council reviewed a draft design for an “At Your Door” magnet from an employee of MCA-TV; members requested reducing the size of the WM logo and adding WM’s website, email, and phone number. Two members have vendors willing to provide quotes for magnet production, with a goal of distribution by Earth Day and possibly at Farmers Market days. An employee updated the council on the Comprehensive Plan for Marketplace Boulevard, which will be a mixed-use development with residential, retail, and office space, modeled after developments like Villages of Pine; members were asked to email examples of similar developments before the next Comp Plan Committee meeting. The council reviewed a list of potential projects, including promoting public transit through the Moon Messenger and MTMA’s website and Facebook page, a joint EAC-Parks and Recreation initiative to install signs discouraging smoking in parks, exploring a shade tree commission like those in Beaver and Sewickley, and inventorying centennial trees in the township. The council set a target to have a project launched by Earth Day 2017. For the Riverfront Park cleanup, members preferred weekend participation, and an employee will request weekend opportunities. The meeting adjourned at 7:10 PM. There will be no meeting in October; the next meeting is November 9, 2016, at 6 PM.The Moon Township Environmental Advisory Council met on September 14, 2016, and approved the minutes from its August 10 meeting.
