Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 65 subject tags
The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on April 26, 2023, where they approved four action items. The Board unanimously approved a $1,000 Bronze Sponsor level sponsorship for the 5th annual Sr. Rene Porcopio Memorial Golf Outing benefiting Mooncrest Neighborhood Programs. They also approved entering the first option year of a rock salt agreement with Cargill, Inc. through the SHACOG Purchasing Alliance for the period of July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024. The Board approved an amended agreement with Capital Asset Protection, Inc. to extend park security services for 2023 with an increased hourly rate, and approved a $22,570 contract with Industrial Appraisal Company for a reappraisal of Township assets for fixed asset accounting and insurance valuation. During public comment, several residents of Staunton Drive raised concerns about a detention pond that remains on a temporary plan, presenting photos of sediment and dirt piles. A resident criticized the creation of a Public Safety Director position, alleging the Police Department was defunded to fund it, and requested funds be restored to the police budget. A resident expressed that officers were upset about their W-2s and felt the Township showed deliberate indifference, calling for an apology to the department. In reports, the Parks and Recreation Director noted the Bunny Hop raised $420 and food donations for the West Hills Food Pantry, and Earth Day drew 100 volunteers. He also presented a $37,893 proposal from Canvus for products made from retired wind turbine blades. The Finance Director reviewed March financials. The Planning Director provided updates on the Luna Ridge and Apex at Diamond Ridge plans, a Dog Daycare Amendment, and a conditional use request to convert 200 Grant Drive (formerly Braddock Hall) into apartments. The Engineer reported Youngblood Paving as the apparent low bidder for 2023 roadway improvements, and detailed progress on various stormwater, park, and Mooncrest Community Center projects, including change orders for plaster replacement. The Board ratified bills totaling $5,000.70 from the General Fund, $26,811.27 from the Capital Reserve Fund, and $200 from the Stormwater Fund; the Chairman abstained from the General Fund vote due to his employment with Moon Township Ford. After reconvening from executive session, the Board discussed a request from the Tax Collector to potentially switch delinquent tax collection from Weiss Burkardt Kramer to Jordan Tax Services, noting the change could not occur until January 2024.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on April 26, 2023, where they approved four action items.
