Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 24 subject tags
The Board of Supervisors held a continued public hearing on the conditional use application from Revival Today, Inc. for a place of worship at 1442 Coraopolis Heights Road. The chairman opened by questioning the applicant’s credibility, noting that a traffic study was conducted only on Sundays and that a previous tent was not removed after the required 180 days. The applicant’s team, including a CFO, a traffic engineer, a civil engineer, and a sound engineer, presented updates. The CFO clarified the 800-person tent capacity includes everyone on site and stated the church would not turn people away but would use a satellite location to keep attendance at 800. He acknowledged tent No. 1 was not taken down due to costs but promised compliance with the 180-day ordinance for tent No. 2. The traffic engineer presented a PennDOT-approved traffic study, noting a left-turn lane was not warranted if off-site parking and shuttles are used. The civil engineer updated on stormwater compliance for tent No. 2. The sound engineer proposed a solar-powered remote sound monitoring system with 24/7 alerts, though he has no formal certifications and his contract with the church is not yet signed. Supervisors pressed on enforcement of the 800-person limit, off-site parking guarantees, and noise mitigation. An attorney requested the hearing be continued to September 11, 2025, to allow the Planning Commission to make a recommendation on August 20. The board voted unanimously to continue the hearing. No public comment was taken, and no other business was conducted.
