Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 44 subject tags
The Board of Supervisors held a budget workshop on October 10, 2016, focused solely on the 2017 Capital Fund and projects. No public comment was offered. The Finance Director distributed a preliminary capital projects summary, comparing last year’s approvals, this year’s departmental requests, and staff recommendations. The Police Department requested three new vehicles, upgrades to radio sites and intersection cameras, and a dispatch project upgrade estimated at $161,000 to $200,000. The Fire Department, funded by a .2 mill fire tax and a portion of the Local Services Tax, sought a feasibility study for a new fire station, storage bays, a new engine for 2018 delivery, and four thermal imaging cameras. Public Works requested a tractor, a truck, a grapple loader rake attachment, and an Accubrine remote truck fill. MCA-TV, funded by franchise fees, requested a high-definition playout server, a switcher, a headset system, and a generator. The Engineering Department presented sidewalk construction projects on Mooncrest, Oak Drive, Juniper Drive, Brooks School Road, University Boulevard, and Beaver Grade, with $60,000 in grant money offsetting an estimated $90,000 cost. Stormwater management included a new MS4 permit application. Parks and Recreation requested playground redevelopment, tennis court repairs, park lighting, amphitheater repairs, a sand volleyball court, fence improvements, a senior center wall removal, a park maintenance facility, roof replacements, and a riverfront park survey. Facilities requested ventilation systems for two fire stations, rooftop air handlers for police and fire, parking lot lights, gas tank removal, and ADA-compliant door replacements with CDBG matching funds. An update was given on the Green Light Go traffic signal synchronization project. The board also discussed a siren site radio equipment building replacement, the road program with $500,000 for Boggs School Road, and a vehicle transfer from administration to public works. The board appointed an employee as temporary chairman for the next budget meeting.The Board of Supervisors held a budget workshop on October 10, 2016, focused solely on the 2017 Capital Fund and projects.
