Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 46 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on January 25, 2023, and took several formal actions. The board unanimously approved Resolution R-7-2023, appointing an independent auditor for fiscal year 2022 at a rate of $7,500. They also approved the bond release for RMU School of Engineering, Math, and Science, reducing it from $45,396 to $0, as recommended by the Township Engineer. A motion to authorize the Township Solicitor to request FAA approval to operate as a public aircraft operator for an Unmanned Aircraft System passed unanimously. The board approved Resolution R-8-2023, adopting and allocating funds for an outdoor fitness court as part of the 2023 National Fitness Campaign, which includes a $30,000 grant. They also authorized the Township Manager to obtain a commercial appraisal for 203 Hirshinger Road. A request from Moon Marketplace 1, LLC to modify Section 22-402.4 of the Township Code, allowing temporary above-ground electrical service at Diamond Ridge with a performance bond for future underground installation, failed on a 4-1 vote. The board then voted unanimously to table the request. The board ratified payment of bills from the General Fund totaling $182,754.50, with a supervisor abstaining due to his employment with Aqua Filter Fress, Inc. During public comment, an employee of Columbia Gas discussed the need for an easement connecting gas systems at Duffy and Cypress Drive to prevent outages. The Planning Director reported that the state approved $1.5 million in RACP funding for the Diamond Ridge Recreation project, and discussed zoning amendments, the PIBP conditional use, and February Zoning Hearing Board applications from Sheetz, Felician Sisters, and a resident. The board also heard updates on the Felician Drive traffic concerns, a proposed comprehensive plan with Crescent Township, and extensive engineering reports on stormwater projects, park improvements, and the Mooncrest Community Center.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on January 25, 2023, and took several formal actions.
