Radnor commissioners approve arts commission, advance stormwater authority and authorize culvert and resurfacing contracts
Summary
At the June 15 Radnor Township meeting, commissioners created a public art commission, introduced an ordinance to form a stormwater authority for later public hearing, converted four parking spaces to handicap spots, and authorized engineering and resurfacing contracts for culvert replacement and street resurfacing.
The Radnor Township Board of Commissioners on June 15 approved several administrative measures and infrastructure actions following public comment and staff presentations.
The board unanimously passed a resolution establishing Radnor’s first public art commission to explore a township public‑art program and recommend standards, locations and processes to the board. The commission’s work will include public engagement and return recommendations to the commissioners.
The board introduced an ordinance to establish a stormwater authority under the Municipality Authorities Act and authorized staff to advertise a public hearing (expected July 20). Solicitor Mr. Rice explained the authority would support stormwater planning, MS4 permit monitoring and capital projects and would be empowered to recommend fees and collect revenues under board oversight.
Commissioners approved converting four metered parking spaces along the west side of the Wayne Senior Center to handicap parking to improve access for center users. They also introduced an ordinance to restrict parking on a 650‑foot segment of Triionon Lane to address sight‑distance concerns.
On infrastructure work, the board authorized GFT Inc. to prepare design, permitting and bidding documents for the Skunk Hollow culvert replacement ($297,400) after staff and engineers reported the existing culvert is beyond repair and serves the park parking and leaf‑recycling access. Public Works Director Steve Norsini said the purchase is consistent with typical design percentages for culvert projects and noted the project will proceed through required permitting.
The board also awarded the 2026 Super Pave street‑resurfacing contract to Glasco, Inc., the lowest qualified bidder on the township’s resurfacing list.
What happens next: the stormwater authority ordinance will be the subject of an advertised public hearing; the culvert design work and resurfacing work will proceed through engineering and procurement steps and return to the board during implementation.
