Conewago Township appoints zoning hearing board solicitor, authorizes preliminary design work
Summary
The Conewago Township Board of Supervisors appointed Alexa Potts of Appel, Yost & Zee as solicitor for the Zoning Hearing Board at $215 per hour and authorized RETTEW to begin preliminary design for a three-sided building project.
The Conewago Township Board of Supervisors voted Jan. 21 to appoint Alexa Potts of the firm Appel, Yost & Zee as solicitor for the township’s Zoning Hearing Board and to authorize preliminary design work by engineering firm RETTEW for a three-sided building project.
The actions came during the board’s 2 p.m. workshop meeting in Elizabethtown. Supervisor Frank Graybill moved to appoint Potts at a rate of $215 per hour; Vice-Chair Mike Long seconded and the board recorded "All in favor, motion carried." Chair Mimi Legro later moved to authorize RETTEW to commence preliminary design for the three-sided building project; Long seconded and the motion carried.
Why it matters: appointing a solicitor establishes who will represent and advise the Zoning Hearing Board in upcoming matters, and authorizing preliminary design lets the township begin formal planning and budgeting for a new municipal structure. The minutes do not specify a project budget or a projected construction timeline.
Board members and next steps: Graybill presented the solicitor appointment motion and Long seconded. The minutes do not record roll-call tallies or any dissent. The board’s authorization enables RETTEW to begin design work; any subsequent contract approvals, design costs, or construction bids were not specified in the minutes.
The meeting adjourned at 2:49 p.m. and the minutes were signed by Secretary Jessica Hunt.
