Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 33 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a regular meeting on March 3, 2021, beginning with a presentation from the Moon Transportation Authority (MTA). The executive director of the MTA detailed the authority’s operations, completed projects including the award-winning Thorn Run Interchange reconstruction, and current projects such as the Market Place District, Rouser Road Connector, and Stevenson Mill Connector. The executive director of the MTA noted that the MTA declined a request from the Moon Area School District for $81,000, citing an inability to assist at this time. A state representative then provided updates on vaccine distribution, unemployment benefits, and Capital Assistance Program grants available through March 31. The board approved the minutes from the January 27 workshop and February 3 regular meeting. A public hearing was held and then closed for the Diamond Ridge Master Plan, a planned non-residential development by Burns & Scalo Development, LLC. The board heard the applicant’s case, including waiver requests for items like benches, street trees, and lighting, with a supervisor insisting on the full number of required benches. A written decision is expected for the April 7 agenda. The board approved several action items: a minor land development for St. Philip’s Church Plan of Lots; a minor land development for Moon Dog Park; Resolution R-12-2021 establishing a Voting District Advisory Committee to address unequal polling place lines; Resolution R-13-2021 allowing the police department to accept cash donations; the appointment of a resident to the Military Banner Committee; and Resolution R-14-2021 to extend the Valley Ambulance Authority’s term. The board also filled all five positions on the Moon Parks Foundation, appointing five residents to staggered terms. The township manager announced upcoming events, including a Public Awareness Weekend, a March Madness scavenger hunt, an Easter Bunny visit, an electronics collection, and a glass recycling bin. Bills were paid from the General Fund ($85,454.99), Military Banner Fund ($170.00), Capital Reserve Fund ($13,866.94), and Bond Fund ($11,822.53), with a supervisor abstaining from the General Fund vote due to a conflict of interest. The board concluded with remarks supporting the MTA and emphasizing fiscal responsibility.
