then later went back to seed several areas. They mowed the township lawn and maintained the
township equipment.

Replace the Furnace – Austin was able to get the information the Board requested, however
Paula still felt that it was not complete. She said that the questions were still unanswered. Julie
said she would take it upon herself to contact each company the following day to try to get the
answers Paula requested.
Amusement Tax – Atty. Greco has prepared this ordinance. The Board will review it. Paula
stated that she is not in favor, as it if it will hurt small fairs and such. Julie stated that she isn’t
sure about it either. There is, however, damage being done to our roads because of all the excess
traffic from the concerts being held in the township. The subject was discussed. How can the
township recoup the cost of repairing these roads?
Hazen Road Turn around – Colin is going to reach out to Floyd Long, set up a time and go out
to visit with him. He will take Austin along with him.

member to read and review to prepare for the upcoming P.C. meeting in June.

our attorney, Ed Greco. Ed contacted Julie and said that Leon was going to consult with an
attorney in Lancaster that has dealt with this subject in the past.
