Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 61 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on November 22, 2021, with all members present except a supervisor. During public comment, a resident requested a crosswalk between Spencer Court and McCormick School District for safety; the chairman said the township is working with PennDOT and police on the matter. Two residents objected to the planned closure of the West End Avenue steps, which they and other families use daily to get children to school. The board agreed to postpone the closure and have township engineers re-evaluate the steps. The Moon Township Public Library director presented a request for a 10% to 20% increase in township funding starting in the 2023 budget, noting flat funding for the past decade and a space crisis. The board agreed to schedule further discussion in January. The board approved a memorandum of understanding with Flock Group Inc. to allow the police department to use Flock license plate reader services. They also approved two bond reduction requests for Wiltshire Estates: Phase 4 from $51,543.50 to $41,675.00, and Phase 5 from $129,314.88 to $102,567.60, as recommended by the township engineer. Bills were ratified: $5,941.62 from the General Fund and $1,100.00 from the Sponsorship Fund. The parks and recreation director reported on upcoming events, including the Moon Lights Holiday Festival on December 4, and noted that the Revival Today Church fireworks proposal for New Year’s Eve at Moon Park is under review due to staffing concerns. The planning director reported that the 1st Amendment to the Village at Marketplace and the Pindilli simple subdivision will be on the December 1 agenda for approval. The engineer provided updates on numerous capital projects, including the Downes Fire Station, municipal complex improvements, and the Mooncrest community center demolition, all facing supply chain delays. The public works manager proposed renewing an Agility Agreement with PennDOT for line striping in exchange for winter maintenance on Hookstown Grade Road; the agreement will be on the December 1 agenda.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on November 22, 2021, with all members present except a supervisor.
