The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on July 29, 2020, beginning with the swearing-in of two new police officers. The board then heard from a representative of the Hollow Oak Land Trust, who requested a letter of support for a state grant to acquire the former Nike Missile Site from Moon Little League to expand the Montour Woods Conservation Area. After discussion, the board asked Hollow Oak Land Trust to hold off on submitting the grant application. During public comment, two residents requested the addition of two more pickleball courts at Moon Park; the board suggested they bring the matter to the Parks and Recreation Board. The board approved several action items unanimously. They extended the township’s contract with Cargill, Inc. for road salt, pushing the deadline to purchase the minimum 80% annual requirement to December 31, 2020. They passed Resolution R-21-2020, authorizing the township manager to sign the Coronavirus Relief Fund agreement, which will bring the township $225,000. They approved a bond reduction for Cimarron Phase 6 from $44,200 to $32,000, and authorized a $7,075 geotechnical investigation for the proposed addition to the Downes Fire Station. The board also approved payment of bills totaling $297,109.82 across the General, Stormwater Management, Sponsorship, Military Banner, and Park and Recreation funds. In reports, the Parks and Recreation director noted heavy use of Moon Park, successful summer camp and farmers market attendance, and a full slate of upcoming events. The planning director updated the board on several development items, including a final PRD application for Cimarron Phase 4, a revised tentative plan for Wilshire Estates that does not meet zoning regulations, a sidewalk plan, and a draft ordinance adding landscaping requirements for engineered slopes. The engineer reported on the 2020 road program, park improvements, stormwater pond maintenance, and numerous stormwater complaint resolutions. The board also previewed the August 5 regular meeting agenda, which includes a library board appointment and several contract payments.
