Board of Supervisors Workshop Meeting

Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 41 subject tags

The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved a $20,225 invoice from Satira Construction for concrete stairs and handrails at the Public Safety Building, as recommended by the township engineer. They also passed Resolution R-25-2019, appointing the township manager as the voting delegate for the Pennsylvania Municipal League’s annual business meeting. Two bond reductions were granted for the Crosswinds development: Phase 2 and 3 bonds were reduced from $1,485 to $0, and Phase 4 bonds from $825 to $0, both per the engineer’s recommendation.

During public comment, a resident presented a history of Moon Township, including the Joshua Meeks and Staunton Farm properties, and offered to provide further survey and patent details at a future meeting. An employee of Hollow Oak Land Trust proposed that the township acquire roughly 100 acres of tax-delinquent properties for a new park or transfer to the land trust; the solicitor agreed to research the legal process. The police chief reported on traffic issues on Moon Clinton and Becks Run roads, noting that Shell’s construction workforce will drop from 6,000 to 600 employees by mid-2021, and suggested the board tour Findlay Township’s police station.

The Parks and Recreation Department announced the grand opening of the Moon Park playground and splash pad, the end of summer concert series, and strong enrollment in flag football and fall programs. The Community Development Department noted that a simple subdivision for the Betzler consolidation and a payment for the Moon Park playground improvements will be on the September 4 agenda. The engineer reported that 2019 road improvements on Grant Drive and Shafer Drive are expected within 30 days, and that options for repairing the Pine Road slide range from $200,000 to $350,000. The board also discussed a resident complaint about a missing “No Left Turn” sign at Sheetz and agreed to continue the Moon Area School District pool agreement through the end of 2019.
