During the March 4 Moore Township Board of Supervisors meeting, Chair Daniel Piorkowski administered the oath of office to 11 new fire police and fire department leaders with the Klecknersville Rangers.

In other business, supervisors heard from towing company representatives. At a previous meeting, a decision was made that placed towing companies on a weekly rotation to share police towing needs in the township.

The idea was to share tows without the police officer on duty selecting the towing company. The officer would have to follow an approved list, reportedly furnished by Northampton County to ensure the integrity of the towing company selections.

A representative of the Arthofer Towing and Transport Company addressed the supervisors, noting it is the only towing company in Moore Township and is family run, with more than 40 years serving the public. After the Arthofer presentation, the owner and operator of Hoss Towing Services of Bath also addressed council. He noted he resides in Moore Township and said there are times when he is home with his tow truck parked on his property.

After hearing the Hoss representative’s statements, Piorkowski requested the issue be tabled to the April supervisors’ meeting. The board unanimously concurred.

The supervisors approved Hahn’s Lawns to complete the annual field treatment at the township’s recreation center. Hahn’s did the treatment last year with no issues or problems, according to Craig Hoffman, public works director.

Hoffman added street sweeping on the east side of the township was to be underway this week. The west side of the township street sweeping is planned for April 21-23.

It was noted the historical commission has nearly completed researching the names of veterans in Moore Township cemeteries. The commission also expects renovation of the Edelman School House to begin in the spring.

The commission has one vacancy. Interested residents can contact the township office to apply.

Township Engineer Kevin Horvath said the Green Light Go grant request is moving forward and should be awarded next month.

He noted when Pennsylvania Department of Transportation evaluated the request for a new light to replace the only traffic light in Moore Township, it discovered the pole is compromised and will need replacement. This will increase the cost by about $100,000 — to a total project cost of $200,000. The township’s matching grant responsibility will be $40,000.

The township’s emergency management coordinator, Rob Hindley, informed township Manager Stephen Nowroski he will vacate the role Dec. 31. Interested residents can contact Nowroski at the township office to apply.

Two resolutions were approved that adopted the township emergency management plan and approved the traffic signal maintenance agreement.

The next supervisors meeting is set for 6 p.m. April 1 at the township municipal building, 2491 Community Drive.
