The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on February 26. The board unanimously approved four land development actions: a simple subdivision for the Pindilli lot line revision, a lot line shift for the Montour Parkway Plan of Lots No. 4, a simple subdivision for the Village at Marketplace Phase 2C Amendment 2, and a license agreement with Heritage Valley Health System for overflow parking for the Bunny Hop and Earth Day events. The board also approved a lot consolidation for Moon Golf Club, 4-1, with the chairman dissenting. Bills totaling $395,190.16 were ratified, with a supervisor abstaining due to a conflict of interest with a vendor. The board heard a presentation from a representative of the Hollow Oak Land Trust, who proposed a partnership to preserve the Hyde School building from demolition, noting it could serve as a community or nature center but requires significant renovation. The board expressed interest in further discussions. The police chief reported on department hiring, noting 9 of 11 applicants passed initial tests, with interviews scheduled for early March. The finance director reviewed January financials, noting elevated costs from three payroll cycles, and reported the township is reevaluating its strategy for purchasing a new fire truck. The planning specialist provided updates on upcoming public hearings for Buddy’s Ace Hardware outdoor storage conditional use and the Village at Marketplace revised tentative plan, set for March 4. She also outlined proposed ordinance amendments covering logging, streets, sidewalks, subdivisions, and zoning matters. The board approved an RFP for a combined 10-year Comprehensive Plan and Parks and Recreation Plan update. The engineer reported the 2024 road program closed, with bids opening March 24 for the 2025 program, and provided an update on ongoing MS4/stormwater permit reviews. A supervisor reported on the Moon Economic Development Group and SHACOG meetings, while another supervisor requested a private meeting between the township manager and library director to discuss finances.The Moon Township Board of Supervisors held a workshop meeting on February 26.
