Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 26 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved minutes from three prior meetings and then moved through a series of action items. They authorized Change Order No. 1 for the stormwater pond mowing and tree clearing contract, decreasing the amount by $1,000, and approved a final partial payment of $5,952.50 to Custom Contracting for that same contract. The board approved a $10,250 geotechnical investigation for the municipal complex by Construction Engineering Consultants, Inc., and approved an $81,756 invoice from Musco Sports Lighting for Moon Park’s Kenny Ross Field lighting. They authorized the purchase of a 2019 Ford F-550 XL 4x4 dump truck for Public Works for $84,880 under a Costars contract. Pay Application No. 2 for the 2019 Roadway Improvement Program, in the amount of $225,855.70, was approved for Youngblood Paving, Inc. The board also approved an $11,700 tree management and assessment proposal from Bartlett Tree Experts; the Parks and Recreation Director explained the cost covers software and a three-year monitoring program for trees in Moon, Robin Hill, and Olson parks, and noted it could help with MS4 credits and grant applications. The board paid bills printed between September 26 and October 2, with a supervisor abstaining because the register included a bill from their employer, Aqua Fresh, Inc. During audience comments, two residents voiced concerns about the Duquesne Light Brunot Island-Crescent Project, a proposed high-voltage transmission line. They urged the township to get involved and encouraged residents to attend a Public Input Hearing scheduled for October 9 at Robert Morris University. The township manager announced that 2020 budget planning sessions begin October 7, and that township offices will be closed October 17 for employee training. Supervisors announced upcoming events including the library’s Moon Shine fundraiser, a Hollow Oak Land Trust trail walk, a fire company open house, Halloween Spooktacular, Trick-or-Treat night, National Prescription Drug Take Back Day, and curbside leaf and branch pickup running November 4-27.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors approved minutes from three prior meetings and then moved through a series of action items.
