Lower Heidelberg supervisors approve personnel moves, paving contract, ADA ramp RFP and $40,000 sign purchase
Summary
At their June 17 meeting, the Lower Heidelberg Township Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a conditional hire for public works, awarded a 2024 paving contract, authorized an ADA‑ramp RFP, approved a new public‑works contract and authorized up to $40,000 for a digital sign through COSTARS.
Lower Heidelberg Township’s Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a set of personnel, public‑works and purchasing actions at its June 17, 2024 meeting.
The most immediate personnel action was a motion by Member Paul Prutzman, seconded by Vice Chair Cheryl Johnson, to approve a conditional offer of employment to Heath Isamoyer Jr. for a public works position; the board voted unanimously to approve the conditional hire. The board subsequently approved a new public works employee contract on a motion by Vice Chair Johnson, seconded by Prutzman.
The board also moved on several public‑works and capital items. On a motion by Prutzman, seconded by Johnson, supervisors awarded the 2024 paving contract (bid #1) and approved advertising a request for proposals to install Americans with Disabilities Act‑complaint ramps at Green Valley Road and Vermont Avenue. Both motions passed unanimously.
In finance and purchasing, the supervisors approved a motion authorizing spending of up to $40,000 to purchase a digital sign through COSTARS; that motion was moved by Prutzman and seconded by Johnson and passed unanimously. The Consent Agenda — which included the Treasurer’s Report, approval of the May 20 meeting minutes and the May Bills Paid list — was approved unanimously on a motion by Vice Chair Johnson, seconded by Prutzman.
Why it matters: the motions collectively move forward routine infrastructure work and staffing for the township, and authorize a capital sign purchase that the board said will be procured via COSTARS, the Pennsylvania cooperative purchasing program referenced in the meeting record.
Next steps: the board set no additional public hearings tied to these motions in the minutes; the next regular Board of Supervisors meeting was announced for July 15, 2024. The minutes record all motions passed unanimously.
