Resident urges Murrysville council to revisit water fee approved last month
Summary
A resident urged the council to reopen discussion of a recently approved water fee and seek broader community input; council heard the comment during the citizen input portion but did not take immediate action.
During the citizen input portion of the Murrysville Borough Council meeting, resident Jeanette Pavlik of 4200 Colonial Drive addressed council to oppose last month’s approval of the municipality’s water fee and requested that the council revisit the decision with more community input.
"I would like to just let you know that I'm opposed to last month's approval of the water tax or fee that it is. And I'd like more input from the community and to revisit that," Pavlik said. Council acknowledged the public comment but did not schedule a reopening of the fee decision during the meeting; no formal motion or vote to revisit the fee was recorded.
Another resident, Bill Chaser of 6710 Fieldcrest Drive, offered congratulations to the newly seated council and expressed willingness to work with the council on community matters. No formal council response or directive on the water fee was recorded in the meeting minutes.
The comment was entered during the public comment section; any official reconsideration of the water fee would require an agenda item or motion at a future council meeting.
