Forks Township Year in Review - 2009

 

Here are a few activities that affected our township in 2009.

1.  Winning the KMRD lawsuits at the lower court levels. For the KMRD Procedural Challenge the next stop may be the PA Supreme Court.

2. Approving the various 5 year plans for most of the township departments.

3. After a 10% tax increase in 2009, the BoS tighten its “belt” and found enough 09 cost savings to avoid a 2010 tax increase.

4. The 2009 local election brought two new board members.

5. Resolving the Hope Wesleyan Church issue in a rationale way. The church found a new home and we get our Community Center back on Sunday mornings. 

6. The new Public Works Building was given a “green light”, as the BoS approved the building concept and location by a 4 to 1 vote.

I will add new items to the list, as I think of them.

Update Number 1:

1. The Planning Commission developed a Solar Ordnance and will complete a Historical Ordnance for BoS review early in 2010.

Get Involved! Every Voice Counts!
