Graham Township Supervisors hold meeting
Friday, September 14, 2012
MORRISDALE - Graham Township Supervisors held their monthly meeting Monday.
It was reported that the ISO report came back with a new classification. Residential properties came in at a four and commercial properties at a five. The scale runs from one to 10, with one being excellent and 10 being very poor. The previous score was a nine. What this means is that residents of Graham Township qualify for lower insurance premiums on their homes and businesses. Residents are urged to call their homeowners insurance company and report the ISO change. Supervisor Steve Condo thanked Chairman Jeff Williams for his time and effort on this project.
A motion carried to approve the Robert Carr subdivision. The Dan Curley subdivision was presented, and it will be approved after being reviewed by Engineer Joel Albert.
Dave Shoening from the Neighborhood Crime Watch Committee urges residents to attend the meeting Thursday at 7 p.m. The Watch meeting will be exclusively for residents with issues regarding ATVs and the problems they cause. A panel of insurance agents, a state trooper and legal representative will answer questions and give advice on these problems. The meeting is open to anyone who wants to attend. There is limited seating, so participants may want to bring a chair.
A motion was carried to accept a quote from A&R Tree Service for "daylighting" 4.4 miles of Schoonover Road. The bid was $16,800. The work will start late this month for two weeks. This project will be funded by the Schoonover Road Turnback allocation.
The annual September Fest will be held at Big Run Park Sept. 22 at 3 p.m. There will be games, a Chinese auction, 50/50, food, flea market and music. Volunteers and donations are appreciated. For more information, call Sue Pase at 345-6793.
