Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 30 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a regular meeting on October 7, 2020, beginning with a proclamation recognizing a resident for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout. The board unanimously approved the minutes from the August 26 workshop and special meetings and the September 2 regular meeting. The board conducted two public hearings. The first concerned the revised tentative plan for the Wiltshire Estates Planned Residential Development. After hearing from the applicant’s engineer, who requested keeping the parking lot plan as is, and receiving no public comment, the board closed the hearing and unanimously approved the findings of fact and conclusions of law for the application. The second public hearing addressed proposed Ordinance No. 694, which would rezone properties formerly owned by Pittsburgh Airport, Inc. from R-4 and C-2 to RT District. Several residents spoke in opposition, expressing concerns about potential industrial uses, environmental impacts, and the lack of a specific development plan. The applicant’s representative stated the property had been studied and found free of pollutants, and that no specific buyer existed. After a brief executive session, the board closed the hearing and voted unanimously to deny the ordinance. There were no action items under that agenda heading. The township manager announced the start of 2021 budget planning sessions on October 14, the end of the farmers’ market, a free shredding event on October 17, ongoing water main flushing by the Municipal Authority, a family movie night on October 9, the Halloween Spooktacular on October 21, trick-or-treat on October 31, and vacancies on the Environmental Advisory Council and Military Banner Committee. The board approved payment of bills from the General Fund ($276,658.95), Stormwater Fund ($22,549.19), and Capital Reserve Fund ($217,063.79). During audience comments, a resident thanked the board for denying the rezoning. Supervisors encouraged resident involvement, noted the Duquesne Light Brunot Island-Crescent project, emphasized the 2020 Census, and invited residents to serve on boards and committees.
