Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 66 subject tags

The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on September 27, 2023, taking several formal actions. The board unanimously approved Resolution R-32-2023, authorizing the purchase of real property at 102 Mooncrest Drive. They also approved a right-of-way agreement with Duquesne Light Company to install anchors and guy wires on a pole along McCormick Road. A proposal from Brycer, LLC to provide “The Compliance Engine” to the fire department was approved. The board authorized Change Order No. 1 for Contract 22-PD4 HVAC with K&K Mechanical Services Inc. for $6,507.70 to use externally insulated ductwork at the police station. Bills from the General Fund totaling $43,695.69 were ratified; a supervisor abstained because the register included a bill from their employer, Aqua Filter Fresh, Inc.

During public comment, the tax collector recommended replacing the current delinquent tax collector, Weiss, Burkardt & Kramer, with Jordan Tax Service, citing a seamless transition and single point of contact for taxpayers. The township manager will obtain 2024 proposals from both firms.

The finance director reported that the EIT/LST Joint Tax Collection Committee approved a two-year agreement with Jordan Tax Services at a reduced 1.45% commission rate. Budget work sessions were scheduled for October 11, 16, and 23. The planning director updated the board on several development items: Forest Park will have a public hearing on October 4; Walmart is adding an online shopping addition and redoing its parking lot; and a simple subdivision, Kondaveeti No. 1, was noted.

The engineer reported that the 2023 paving contractor mobilized on September 26 and expects substantial completion by mid-October. He reviewed a roadway maintenance study and resurfacing options. Stormwater projects included bids opening November 20 for Glenmore Drive and Philomena Drive stream restoration. The board also heard updates on multiple housing developments under construction, including Wiltshire Estates, Victoria Ridge, Rolling Hills, and Diamond Ridge. At the Mooncrest Community Center, plumbing and sewer extension work is nearing completion. A $500,000 grant application was submitted for the Boggs Run Fire Station waterline extension. The meeting adjourned at 9:05 p.m.
