Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 23 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors awarded a $588,500 contract to Nicholson Construction Company for the Boggs School Road Soil Nailing Design/Build project, including the base bid and alternates 1 and 2, contingent on an agreement acceptable to the township manager and solicitor. The township engineer explained that the proactive soil nailing would prevent a landslide, noting that a retaining wall would have cost $700,000 to $800,000 and faced utility conflicts. The board also approved a $10,850 Dynamic Warning System for Coraopolis Heights Road from PathMaster, Inc., as recommended by the engineer and supported by PennDOT. A supervisor thanked Bayer and Convestro for their assistance on that project. The supervisors authorized the township manager and solicitor to negotiate contracts with Jordan Tax Service for collection of current and delinquent amusement admissions tax, current and delinquent local services tax, and delinquent earned income tax, and with Weiss Burkardt Kramer LLC for delinquent real estate tax collection. The board approved the minutes from the September 27 workshop and October 4 regular meetings. Bills printed between October 5 and November 1 were approved for payment. No public comments were offered. The township manager announced upcoming events, including a youth basketball clinic, a Veterans Day spaghetti luncheon and USO dance, a holiday kickoff on December 2 with a Greens and Things sale, brunch with Santa, and a light-up night, as well as a public information meeting on the Stoops Ferry Road bridge replacement project. A supervisor highlighted a local dry cleaner’s coat drive that collected over 650 coats. The chairman encouraged residents interested in advisory board appointments to submit resumes. The meeting adjourned at 7:18 p.m.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors awarded a $588,500 contract to Nicholson Construction Company for the Boggs School Road Soil Nailing Design/Build project, including the base bid and alternates 1 and 2, contingent on an agreement acceptable to the township manager and solicitor.
