The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved four bond reductions at its July 31 workshop meeting. The board reduced the bond for Wiltshire Estates Phase 3 from $26,620 to $3,300, for Crosswinds Plan No. 2 Phases 2 and 3 from $9,100 to $1,485, for Crosswinds Plan No. 2 Phase 4 from $11,000 to $825, and for Primanti Bros. from $212,646.31 to $22,664.81, all as recommended by the township engineer. During public comment, the board heard from a consultant offering services for the Main Street Moon project and from a resident supporting him. The board discussed hiring a consultant due to staff workload. The parks and recreation director reported that the splash pad is operational, the first Moon Rocks Concert drew about 100 people, and the Robin Hill concert had over 100 attendees. The board discussed a $5,000 invoice from the Moon Area School District for pool use, agreeing to hold payment until all supervisors are present and requesting an attendance report. The planning director provided updates on several developments: the Village at Marketplace Phase 1 is recommended for approval by the Planning Commission, the Park at Luna Ridge Master Plan is awaiting a traffic impact study, and the Rolling Hills Subdivision and Gilmary Ridge Plan are still addressing engineering comments. A payment request of $38,394.90 for the Moon Park playground was noted for the August 7 agenda. The engineer reported on road improvements, noting several completed roads and ongoing work on Grant Drive and the Miracle League Field. The board discussed stormwater pond maintenance and a resident complaint about mine water diversion, with the engineer suggesting contacting the Bureau of Mines. The board also discussed a slide on Pine Road, considering closing the road instead of building a retaining wall. The township manager reported on the transition to a new bank, the hiring of a new administrative secretary, and plans to interview for a finance director. The board previewed the August 7 regular meeting agenda, which includes a stormwater fee public hearing, the Village at Marketplace action item, and agreements for snow and ice removal and rock salt.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved four bond reductions at its July 31 workshop meeting.
