Residents press code enforcement over Church Street paving; board schedules special meeting to finalize LSA grant application
Summary
A Tribune article prompted resident concerns about Delmont Borough seeking to charge Salem Township $24,000 for paving tied to sewage work; supervisors said they will not accept the fees. The board scheduled a Sept. 24 special meeting to finalize LSA grant quotes ahead of the Sept. 30 deadline.
Resident Kent Boggs referenced a Tribune article saying Delmont Borough tried to push a $24,000 asphalt paving charge onto Salem Township for Church Street sewage work; the board stated it would not accept those fees. Residents asked whether penalties or stop‑work orders had been issued to the contractor (Daniel's Excavating); supervisors said no stop‑work orders had been issued because the contractor is in the process of obtaining required permits.
Under new business, supervisors scheduled a special meeting for Sept. 24 to assemble quotes needed for an LSA grant application before the Sept. 30 deadline; the board noted they lacked quotes at this meeting for a mower and a shed proposed for the park and wanted to avoid missing the grant opportunity. The meeting adjourned at 8:13 p.m.; the next regular meeting is Oct. 16, 2024.
