The board also announced a matching donation challenge for Mooncrest Neighborhood Programs, pledging to match up to $5,000 in contributions received during June. The board approved the major land development plan for the Robert Morris University Event Center, subject to conditions in the planning director’s June 5 memorandum. It also approved the minor land development plan for the Barcaskey Plan of Subdivision No. 1, with conditions from the same memorandum. A contract was awarded to The Lerro Corp. for a $37,419 switcher for the MCA-TV production trailer, as the lowest responsible bidder. Resolution R-18-2017 was adopted, authorizing the chairman to sign a reimbursement and maintenance agreement with PennDOT for ADA ramps at Brodhead and Shaffer roads. The board approved the purchase of a grapple loader rake from Groff Tractor & Equipment for $18,695 under a Costars contract, and Pay Application No. 1 to Watt Fencing Inc. for $18,430 for the Stevenson Mill Road public works garage sliding gate project. Resolution R-19-2017 was passed, amending an earlier resolution to set the salary for a part-time IT support technician in the police department. The board also authorized installation of intersection cameras at University Boulevard and Moon Plaza, with a cost not to exceed $10,500 and Robert Morris University covering 60 percent. The township manager reported on the upcoming Moon Parks and Recreation 50th anniversary celebration from July 1-4, including a 5K run, community days, a battle of the bands, and fireworks. The board approved payment of bills from May 4 to June 7; a supervisor abstained due to a conflict of interest. During audience comments, the Moon Area School District president thanked a community member, and a resident inquired about a community recreation center, which the chairman said the board continues to discuss. Supervisors thanked staff, encouraged attendance at the park celebration, and noted it was one of the best meetings in years.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved the minutes from the April 26 workshop and May 3 regular meeting.
