The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved four performance security reductions for development projects. For Wiltshire Estates PRD, the board reduced security for Phase 1 from $83,033.22 to $45,589.11, for Phase 2 from $31,642.60 to $26,316.40, and for Phase 3 from $56,303.50 to $30,316.00. The board also reduced security for "A Senior Living Community at Brodhead Road" from $1,857,804.28 to $1,764,756.35. All reductions followed recommendations from the township consulting engineer. The board authorized the purchase of a 2018 Ford F-350 service duty vehicle for $49,439.00 under a Costars contract. Supervisors nominated and approved an employee for a five-year term on the Moon Transportation Authority and clarified that an employee's term on that board expires in January 2021. An employee was nominated and approved for a three-year term on the Environmental Advisory Council. The board approved a first addendum to a temporary construction easement agreement with a resident for property along Boggs School Road and Brodhead Road. During public comment, a resident raised concerns about Jackson Road. The township engineer said the road needs work but is not on the high priority list; the township manager asked if the road could be widened, and the engineer will report back in February. The planning director reported that all environmental permits have been received for four pedestrian bridges connecting Moon Park to the Montour trail, with HOLT offering to pay for public works time and materials to build them. An intergovernmental cooperation agreement with the Moon Area School District for community pool use will be on the February 7 agenda. The engineer presented the 2018 road improvement program, with a base bid list including Fern Hollow Road, Shadow Lane, and others, and alternates including Shafer Drive and Old Thorn Run Road. The engineer also reported a partial slope failure on Boggs School Road caused by a subcontractor, with the contractor accepting responsibility. The engineer announced his retirement effective March 16, 2018. The fire department requested approval to purchase a new Spartan Metro Star pumper for $595,626.00, which will be on the February 7 agenda.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved four performance security reductions for development projects.
