Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 37 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a public hearing and then unanimously approved Ordinance No. 676, amending the zoning code to permit life care facilities in the BP District and revising supplemental regulations for assisted living facilities and personal care homes. The planning director noted the Planning Commission had recommended approval, and a supervisor commented that the market now favors personal care over office space. The board approved an indemnification and hold harmless agreement with Light Speed Management for a temporary road closure on Beaver Grade Road for the Harvest Moon Run. They authorized a $52,500 contract with Garner Economics LLC to develop an economic development marketing strategy. The major land development plan for the Day Apollo Subaru facility on Grant Drive was approved, subject to conditions in the planning director’s memorandum. The board granted a modification request from Fourway Properties LP to allow a 15-foot-wide storm sewer easement at Sunridge Estates, waiving the minimum easement width requirement. A payment of $542,306.09 to PennDOT for upgrades to the University Boulevard intersection with Campus Drive and Commercial Drive was approved; the township manager explained that Robert Morris University had contributed $230,000 and the township would bill RMU for the remainder. The board paid bills from September 6 through October 3, with a supervisor abstaining due to a conflict of interest involving Aqua Fresh, Inc. During public comment, a resident requested crosswalk markings at Grampion and Elgin Circles for safety; the manager said she would forward the request to Public Works. Representatives of Saint Margaret Mary’s Parish asked for “no thru way” signs and police enforcement to stop drivers using their parking lot as a shortcut. The police chief said enforcement is possible under the vehicle code, and the chairman directed staff to install the signs. The manager announced that garbage and recycling collection days will change in January 2019, and that glass and plastics #3–#7 will no longer be accepted for recycling. She also noted that Pittsburgh Magazine ranked Moon Township the Best Traditional Suburb.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a public hearing and then unanimously approved Ordinance No. 676, amending the zoning code to permit life care facilities in the BP District and revising supplemental regulations for assisted living facilities and personal care homes.
