Resident asks board to raise Planning Commission pay; solicitor to investigate
Summary
At the Dec. 2 meeting a resident asked the board to increase Planning Commission member pay from $10 to $35; Solicitor Thomas S. Nanovic said he will investigate and report back. A second resident noted neighboring township pay rates.
During public comment at the Dec. 2 Penn Forest Township supervisors meeting, resident William Miller asked the board to increase Planning Commission member pay from $10 to $35 per meeting. Solicitor Thomas S. Nanovic said he will investigate the issue and report back to the board.
Resident Judy Knappenberger addressed the board after Miller, noting that Kidder Township pays its Planning Commission members $30 to $35 and describing prior informal assistance with plan-review mailings provided by a municipal office staffer when needed. The comments were recorded during the meeting’s non-agenda public-comment period; the board did not take immediate formal action on the request beyond directing the solicitor to review the matter.
The board adjourned shortly after public comment; the solicitor’s findings or recommended next steps were not part of the minutes.
