The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a budget workshop on October 16, 2023, with all five members present. The finance director presented the proposed 2024 General Fund budget, projecting total revenues with interfund transfers at $19,027,458 and total expenditures with interfund transfers at $20,405,370. The finance director noted the 7.3% increase over 2023 was not significant. The board discussed a possible tax increase for the first time since 2009; the current millage is 2.74 mills. A supervisor suggested skipping a year of road paving or paving only the most needed roads. The township manager identified Ewing Road as a top priority. A supervisor requested a list of all roads needing paving from the township engineer and proposed that each board member review and prioritize capital project requests before the next budget meeting. The board agreed to increase funding for the Moon Township Public Library from $184,000 to $200,000 annually, a $15,272 increase. Discussion also covered the admissions tax and police coverage for Robert Morris University events; the township manager suggested the Robert Morris University police chief meet with the Moon Township police chief.
