Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 64 subject tags

At a January 30 workshop, the Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved the typical road section for the Stevenson Mill and Rouser Road connections, and also authorized a $93,335.02 final payment to Youngblood Paving for the 2018 road program and a $105,230.00 payment to Sports and Recreation Associates for the Moon Park playground. The board later appointed special counsel for the Schreiber litigation at $195 per hour.

An employee of the Moon Transportation Authority presented a proposal to expand the LERTA tax-incentive district to Market Place Boulevard. A supervisor voiced support, and the employee said an amended ordinance would return for a resolution vote in late February or early March. Hollow Oak Land Trust outlined a 2019 scope for trail services, including building a perimeter trail at Moon Park, managing volunteers, and developing a maintenance handbook. Hollow Oak also reported that two of three pedestrian bridges should be finished by the end of February and the third by the end of March.

The Community Development Department reported several upcoming matters: a February 6 public hearing on a steep-slope zoning amendment, a liquor-license transfer for Los Mariachis to University Boulevard, a simple subdivision revising lot lines in Wiltshire Estates Phase 4, and a road-dedication resolution for Candlewood Estates. The planning director also noted development meetings for townhomes on Sharon Road and a property analysis by Rubenstein Partners on Moon Clinton Road.

The engineer reported ongoing work: the Miracle Field construction has started; the Carnot fire station should finish by end of February; and bids are scheduled for March 20 for road improvements, Endeavor soccer field fencing, and the Accubrine building addition. The finance director presented unaudited December 2018 financial reports and a Capital Reserve Fund invoice listing. The parks and recreation director reported the playground nears completion with an April 20 ribbon cutting planned, and announced new events including a community camp out and a Polka Party.

The manager noted a resignation from the Parks and Recreation Board and a planned appointment. The board also discussed a request from a church to waive $684 in public works fees for a 5K run, and decided to open the Lamar Scholarship to any education opportunity, not just Robert Morris University.
