Supervisors approved Resolution No. 29‑2024 to apply for Commonwealth funding for multi‑area waterline extensions; five candidate roads were named and estimated project costs range from $346,000 to $731,000 each.

The board approved Resolution No. 29‑2024 authorizing the township to apply for funds under the Pennsylvania Race Horse and Gaming Act (through the Commonwealth Funding Agency) for a multi‑area waterline extension project.

Supervisor Kerry Jobe said residents have requested waterline extensions over the past two years. The board identified five potential locations—Kennan, Tucker, Hornock, Kaufman, and Tower & Apple Lane—with estimated project costs between $346,000 and $731,000 per area; the board emphasized the projects are incremental, competitive for grant funding and not guaranteed. Residents were asked to e‑mail the township to report water issues for consideration.

The resolution designates an agent to act on behalf of the township for the grant application and authorizes execution and submission of pro forma documents. The motion passed unanimously.
