Council approves $500 property purchase for gazebo access and OKs easement for kayak/canoe launch
Summary
Council approved a retroactive $500 purchase of property adjoining Municipal Lot #3 to enable a gazebo project and authorized an easement with the American Legion to install and maintain a kayak/canoe launch funded by PA Fish and Boat Commission and PA Environmental Council.
Council approved a retroactive motion to purchase a small parcel from 8 South Street for $500 to provide a connection to the northwest corner of Municipal Lot #3; the Solicitor will complete paperwork after the property survey. The motion was made by Councilor Joyce and seconded by Councilor Kerns and carried unanimously.
Separately, the Solicitor reported he is preparing an easement with the American Legion to permit installation and maintenance of a kayak/canoe launch along French Creek at the ball field. The council approved a motion to authorize the easement; the minutes state the launch is being installed with funds from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission and the Pennsylvania Environmental Council.
The minutes do not list construction timelines or maintenance details beyond the easement authorization and the solicitor's involvement in drafting agreements.
