Planning Commission Appointments Tabled for Interviews
The board discussed appointing members to the planning commission. Initially, motions were made to appoint Margaret Briggs and Angelo Baron. However, a motion to table the discussion was made and approved, in order to allow for interviews of all candidates. The vacancy arose due to the passing of Mr. William Davis. There was discussion about whether all applicants had been interviewed previously, with concerns raised about a late application from Mr. Deal.
Upcoming Meetings, Events, and Holiday Schedule Announced
Several upcoming meetings and events were announced. These include meetings for Parks and Recreation, Veterans Committee, Zoning Hearing Board, Planning Commission, and EAC. The township building will be closed on July 3rd for Independence Day. The Tri Municipal Fourth of July parade is on July 4th. The July 6th board of supervisors meeting is cancelled, with mobile office hours held on July 8th. The next regular board meeting is July 13th.
Nick Valor Appointed New Township Manager
The board appointed Nick Valor as the new Township Manager. Mr. Valor was present with his wife and new daughter. Board members expressed excitement and welcomed him, anticipating the energy he would bring. He is expected to start officially on June 29th. Residents were encouraged to give him time to settle in but were assured he is eager to take calls.
New Britain Township Approves 2026 Road Program Contract
The board considered and approved the appointment of James D. Moresy Incorporated for the 2026 road program. The initial recommendation was to award the contract to James D. Moresy Incorporated for $568,527, contingent upon meeting the requirements of the responsible contractor's ordinance. It was noted that out of nine bids, eight were incomplete, making James D. Moresy Incorporated the next lowest bidder with a complete submission. A motion was made to amend the award amount to $598,425, which was within 5% of the initial estimate and within budget. The motion to issue a notice of intent to award the contract for the 2026 road program to James D. Moresy Incorporated for $598,425 was ultimately approved.
Upcoming Planning Projects and Community Events Highlighted
The engineer provided an update on upcoming projects, including two projects to be considered by the planning commission on June 23rd: a smaller project on New Galina Road and a larger warehouse project on Walnut Street. These projects may be considered by the board of supervisors on July 13th, depending on the planning commission meeting outcome. The police department is organizing a 'Christmas in July' event to support schools with back-to-school supplies and advertised a 'Battle of the Badges' blood drive for July 30th.
