Board adopts Resolution to decertify EXPLORE Altoona after debate and initial tabling
Summary
The Antis Township Board of Supervisors voted to adopt Resolution #3-2025 to decertify EXPLORE Altoona after an initial motion to table and subsequent debate; the meeting minutes record inconsistent vote phrasing and at least one named no vote.
The Antis Township Board of Supervisors considered Resolution #3-2025 to decertify EXPLORE Altoona and ultimately adopted the resolution after debate and a second motion. The minutes record an initial motion to table the resolution and then a later motion to adopt; the record presents inconsistent vote phrasing and records at least one supervisor expressing that EXPLORE Altoona should have an opportunity to speak on its own behalf.
According to the minutes, Supervisor Steve Winterstein moved to table the resolution, seconded by Supervisor Brian Kustaborder; the minutes record a vote described as "a 4-0 vote with Supervisor Hornberger voting no," which is internally inconsistent. After discussion with representatives of the Alliance and input from the township solicitor, Supervisor Benjamin Hornberger moved for adoption, seconded by Supervisor Winterstein; the minutes again note a 4-0 phrasing while also recording Supervisor George Bell as opposing the lack of opportunity for EXPLORE Altoona to speak. Because the minutes contain contradictory vote descriptions, the precise roll-call tally is not specified in the record.
