At the June 8 meeting, the Adams Township Board of Supervisors unanimously approved monthly reports, payment of $359,088.40 in invoices, two fund transfers (one record contains a likely transcription error), a Breakneck Creek contribution agreement and resolution, JSW bond reduction No. 1, and a detection-camera purchase.
The Adams Township Board of Supervisors voted unanimously June 8 to approve routine departmental reports, authorize payment of invoices totaling $359,088.40 and approve several financial and project actions. The meeting took place at the Adams Township Municipal Building in Mars and was called to order by Chairman Russell R. Ford.
The board approved the Treasurer's Report and authorized payment of invoices totaling $359,088.40. The minutes record two transfers between township accounts: one listed as a transfer of "$64,9990.80 from the Capital Reserve Account to the General Fund Account" and a second transfer of $417,880.25 from the General Fund to the Capital Reserve. The first transfer figure in the record appears to contain a transcription error and is noted in the minutes as written; the precise amount transferred was not specified elsewhere in the record provided.
