Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 47 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors convened on June 3, 2020, and took several formal actions. The board unanimously approved the minutes from the April 29 workshop and May 6 regular meeting. They passed Ordinance No. 692, amending the township code to establish a stormwater management fee, as recommended by the township manager. The board also approved an indemnification agreement with the Village at Marketplace LLC for a highway occupancy permit to install drainage along Hookstown Grade Road. Bills were paid from multiple funds: $69,299.75 from the General Fund, $16,560.24 from the Capital Reserve Fund, $2,034.00 from the Sponsorship Fund, $316.22 from the Stormwater Fund, $1,835.60 from the Liquid Fuels Fund, and $13,433.25 from the Parks & Recreation Fund. A supervisor abstained from voting on the General Fund bills because the register included a bill from Moon Township Ford, their employer. During public comment, the President of the Miracle League reported that concrete and asphalt work at the Miracle League Field is complete, fencing is expected by end of July, and the season may start in September; a grand opening is planned for next spring due to current restrictions. The board also debated the location of the 2020 Fourth of July fireworks. The Parks and Recreation Director presented three options: keep them at Moon Park, move them to Robert Morris University, or postpone them to the Moonlights Celebration in December. The Police Chief raised safety concerns about holding them at Moon Park, citing potential for the township to be a target given national unrest, and recommended Robert Morris University to encourage residents to watch from home. After discussion, the board voted 3-2 to move the fireworks to Robert Morris University. The township manager noted that Robert Morris University was willing to help make the arrangement work.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors convened on June 3, 2020, and took several formal actions.
