She said there are 5 junk vehicles that are on property and none of them have moved; there are piles of cut pine trees, blocks, fencing that he is throwing over hill at back of lot and composting issues and part of original structure that is left is in bad condition being half torn down. Mr. Richards asked if this is the property where DEP was there in the past. She said yes, it is said Sabo owns property; at time DEP was there a Mr. Shaffer was there he was supposed to buy or be in process of buying it however Mr. Jason White commented that Mr. Sabo is still property owner on record. Chief Moss says he remembers when DEP was there, and that DEP usually does a corrective action plan; he said he talked to Ms. White who informed him the DEP man that was there then is no longer there. Ms. White informed the board that she had talked to new guy at DEP named Matt Shawley and he said the trees, and other stuff should not be brought in there. Mr. Barbin said that is correct that you are not allowed to transport solid waste from one place to another without a license issued by DEP. Mr.Gdula confirmed name of DEP contact. Mr. Richards said it has gotten worse there recently; and between DEP and our police; they can take care of it. One of the Whites said about it being close to the road and Mr. Richards agreed said it is getting closer to the road; Ms. White said the stuff he is throwing over back is piling up against Penelec pole which isn’t good either. Sarah White brought up another house on Elton Road that is abandoned…. that is on property maintenance list that something needs done about…. that the owners should be fined. Mr. Schrader brought up how long process can be …. asked resident Mrs. Baker about her neighbor and she said five years it has gone on; in court. Mr. Richards said that DEP can look at material/trees etc. and our police can take care of the vehicles. Second,Ms.White mentioned the condition of house at corner of Mt. Airy and Post Rd which is still on property maintenance list. Chief Moss said he would talk to owner. Ms. White said they would appreciate any help to take care of these issues.
Mr. Anthony Bafile,Mr. and Mrs. McNeal, and Mr. and Mrs.Ferchalk all of the Clairwood development about stormwater runoff and the recent tar and chip that was done in development. Mr.Bafile said he has lived there for about 38 years and how things and people have changed. He said about previously what had been done to direct water. He said since the recent tar and chip (gravel was which was swept up today) that water from direction of Kelly and Centennial Drive; backs up and comes down between him and his neighbors. He said since the tar and chip the water which he had diverted is now coming onto his property. He said he had a couple of trees taken down recently and they said one went bad because of blight but two or so of them were due to water rot which took years; and also, that when he moved in there a mound of dirt developer put there after 1977 flood that he used to backfill lot; he said when Mr. Jones backfilled lot he showed him where water ran through and found two pipes. Mr.Bafile said he told him they were not his and were removed; he said he believes these were part of original piping in that area. Mr. Gdula said a few years ago …they went so far with a camera in area; didn’t see anything; but he said when they did work there; they found old cistern. He said they tied pipe from cistern into drainage system. He believes there may be more as part of old system. Mr.Bafile asked about the grant/ money available that he was told the township had applied for stormwater grant for the development. He asked about options putting in ditch to catch water, and any future plans for stormwater. He said township used to bring grader around to grade there also. Mr. Richards said if Mr. Senft did that Mr.Bafile would need to be present. The Board replied that we did apply for a grant for the stormwater. Mrs. McNeal asked about to grant also; Mr. Richards said engineer did study of stormwater of which the cost would be $650,000.00 for there. Mr. Barbin said the stormwater grant had been applied for and submitted, but we didn’t get because if we did, we would know by now. Mrs. McNeal also brought tar and chip that they just wanted holes fixed not tar and chip for road….and that kids couldn’t ride bikes; more likely to cause falls,etc. Mr. McNeal brought up that none of the other developments in township have tar and chip; the rest are paved. Mrs.Ferchalk brought up sewage updates that are being mandated and about having to dig up basements; asked about extension. Mr. Richards said that we are not involved in that; would need to attend FHMA sewage meeting to ask about getting extension. Mr. Bucci provided her with day and time of sewage meeting. Intense discussion continued about stormwater; driveway pipes on Centennial Drive; Mr. Barbin said that would be PennDOT that those residents need driveway permit from PennDOT not township; standing water ord, and Mr. Cortese about where water drains by him. Mr. Cortese who is on Planning Commission who also lives back there said today when it was raining, he followed water; that it is not all coming from the new homes on Centennial. He said he thinks if we have a stormwater meeting with Supervisors, Planning Commission, Mr. Barbin etc. to come up with plan of what we can do that we can solve half of stormwater problem; another half being Centennial. He said he would help however he can; said he is meeting with Ray from Berwind. Mr. Richards said Mr. Senft would come in morning to look at what he can do for Mr.Bafile concerning runoff. Mr. Barbin said the best thing is to come up with a plan and then work from bottom up so you don’t dump water on people below and do it in bits and pieces so you can make can afford it and to make sure that won’t happen. Mr. Cortese again mentioned about helping Supervisors with this and setting up a stormwater meeting.
Mrs. Baker asked about Geibig pretrial conference and Mr. Barbin said he got COVID a few days before so he had to cancel, and it would be rescheduled.

PUBLIC GENERAL COMMENT PERIOD:
Etta Albright with League of Women Voters of PA about Fix Harrisburg issue. She explained about the League of Women Voters being a non-partisan group that came out of Women’s Suffrage. She said about Harrisburg; about how in state legislature current legislative rules allow a few partisan leaders in positions of power complete control over which bills get a vote; should be bi partisan; should be fair and just process. Mr. Richards had a question; asked if they have gone to state representative,senator,etc. She said yes; and also mentioned Health Care Safety; staffing issues right now and gave sheet that explained that is an example of a bill about this staffing issue being blocked or not considered. Mr. Richards mentioned when we at township need help/assistance with something we go to our state representatives. Albright said that is good for you as a township; that is what it should be a collaboration. Ms. Albright asked Board to consider signing petition either online or physical copy in support of these issues. Mr. Schrader said something about the secretary doing that… and Mr. Richards said that no that would something to be done on an individual basis. Ms. Albright said she leave the Board with the information to look over and consider signing petition in support then check back.
Joe Barnouski here on behalf of Tessa Williams about discussing building permit denial and then any needed motions. Mr.Barnouski here representing his daughter; sold her 30 acres on Strip Road with intent for her to build a home on the land. He said she tried going the stick-built route but with lumber today; it didn’t work out. She found and ordered a manufactured home (double wide). He said building codes sent denial saying acreage is in middle of three different zoning areas where manufactured is not allowed; it says to come to Board to either grant exception or change zoning to agricultural; he said is here for advice/guidance on what can be done. Mr. Richards mentioned it not being allowed in any of those zoning areas; that the Planning Commission updated the ordinance, and we had public hearings at which there was no objections. Mr.Barbin said recently we changed property on zoning map; but we were able to that because one of the zoning areas bordering the property allowed that. If we changed Ms.Williams property to all agricultural, it would be spot zoning which is illegal in Pennsylvania. He said option he suggests if we want it work is to do a zoning amendment to the language under the Conservancy (S) District to allow one single residence either stick built or manufactured home on no less 20 acres provided manufactured home is built on full foundation. Mr.Barbin said that change would allow wherever Conservancy is on zoning map. He told Mr.Barnouski that when a property is in two or more zoning districts the owner can choose which one it is. But none of the 3 this property is in allows it that is why he said about doing zoning amendment to language. Discussion continued. Mr. Bucci explained difference between manufactured and modular homes after Mr. Schrader asked Mr.Barnouski where his daughter had ordered the home from. The Board told Mr.Barnouski to go to Planning Commission later this week with this issue and then if they are acceptable of zoning amendment we can proceed with change. Mr. Bucci provided him time and date of meeting. Mr.Barnouski also brought up a place in road near the S curve near Krestars that needs smoothed out or something put there. Mr. Richards said that is a state road but if the road department passed by the area; they may put something there.
Mr. Colt McKelvey who lives on Forest Hills Drive and has McKelvey Law Office up the hill here about natural gas. He said he has been trying to get natural gas on his side of Forest Hills Drive. He said he has called gas companies (Peoples/Keystone) but has not received a call back. Mr. Richards said when Representative Rigby was here two weeks ago; he is trying to help get gas to Mr. Paluch’s greenhouse on Forest Hills Drive. Mr. Bucci said that we have been dealing with this for years.; he said a few years ago he went around Old Luther development with forms to get people who were interested in Peoples gas and got them back and submitted them; no movement forward. He also said all the contacts he had numbers for back then are no longer there. Mr.Senft said if he remembers correctly that it was about money to get gas line from hill by Em’s up to that side of Forest Hills Drive or have Keystone come up Palestine. Mr. Bucci asked Mr.Paluch what they said it would cost to bring up to his greenhouse. Mr.Paluch said it changed every time; said in beginning was around 80,000 then up to 300,000. Mr. Bucci agreed price is astronomical. Mr. McKelvey asked if calling Rigby’s office directly would help; the Board said yes give him a call. The Board said this has been ongoing for years and that if the gas company brought line up, they even said they would allow them to go along township right of way. Mr.Paluch mentioned places down in St. Michael area getting gas line down there so quickly; how that happened so fast. Mr. Bucci said he said he thought the businesses Mr.Paluch mentioned all contributed to the cost to get the line down there. Mr.Paluch said yes all we want is a call back to know where things stand. Mr. Richards said one of the supervisors would try to get in contact with the gas companies to see if anything can be done.

Mr.Barbin asked it is near Chevy Lane and who currently are the owners. Mr. Morris said yes it is near there and the current owner is ECS Partnership ; it is just the one 10.1-acre parcel and is on north side by creek. Mr.Barbin said the options are to either file a curative amendment which is like a variance hearing and go before either the Zoning Hearing Board or the Supervisors ; you have to prove that you can’t use property any other way and are technically challenging the zoning ordinance. He said an easier way would be if the supervisors all agree to change/amend the zoning map/ordinance; would be quicker would take like 45-60 days and would be more cost effective also. Discussion continued; area is residential there are other houses.

Mrs. Connie Wyandt who was at the last meeting here about a few items again. First she had asked about speed limit signs in that area.

Discussion; Mr. Gdula said there are 25 mph speed limit signs at both ends of road ; he said law is that they must be ½ mile apart which they are. She asked if Board could recommend then to police to come watch that area as men coming from the mine speed through there. Mr. Bucci mentioned this to Chief Moss after the last meeting; it is in his hands. She inquired as to the complaints about the chickens ,etc. from last meeting. Mr. Bucci said that those complaints had been turned into/forwarded onto codes. She said it has gotten worse.; asked for codes contact info and it was supplied.
Mr. And Mrs. McNeal here about road conditions in Clairwood development. Mrs. McNeal said that the entrance is to down to one lane ; is deteriorating and stormwater lays there. She said all the other developments seem to have better road conditions ; they both stated these road conditions are an eyesore and affects resale values for homes.; and they are aware of drainage issues and that there was no drainage when they first moved there. Mr. Senft said that we are trying to get a grant to do the drainage. Mr. Gdula said that you must have good drainage to have a good road. Mr. Gdula and Mr. Bucci both said wouldn’t want to pave then have to cut it all up again to put in drainage. Mrs. McNeal asked if there could be temporary fix at least for the entrance. Mr. and Mrs. McNeal asked when the we would know about the grant; Mr. Bucci said we would not know until the fall whether we get the grant for it. The McNeal’s said even if the grant comes through could be another year then. Discussion continued. Mr. Senft said there was plans to do entrance last year but ran out of time. He said has plans to do the entrance, but rest of development will have to wait. Mr.Barbin asked if those were immediate plans for entrance. He said yes immediate for the entrance and rest of roads in development will have to wait to be paved. Mrs. McNeal said any improvements would be good.
Scott Good here about preliminary proposed residential development plan.; he was at Planning Commission meeting earlier this month and they recommended that he show the Board his plans and presentation. He said on 40-acre piece of land he owns is zoned R-3 ,showed proposed plan showing drawings (would be rental units/homes ; could accommodate between 20-34 units ; he said his would be around 20 units. Discussion on questions brought up by Board included stormwater, having only one egress , utilities, entrance. Mr. Good said that one of questions the Planning Commission brought up was a trust indenture. Mr.Barbin said what that is a trust that you would set up that would provide maintenance for common area for residents. Mr.Barbin said that he doesn’t see anything so far that is not allowed under the zoning ordinance although he would have to look at it as it pertains to Mr. Good’s plan ;will there but some buts and ands sure but nothing stands out ; he said Mr. Good’s next step would be to draw a sketch plan and present it to the Planning Commission. Mr. Bucci said this is a good idea and he thanked Mr. Good for coming to present his preliminary plan.

PUBLIC GENERAL COMMENT PERIOD: Ms. Connie Weyandt and Ms. Loretta Dusack who lives on Centennial Drive here about numerous issues. First Ms.Wyandt asked if you need a permit to demolish a building; the Board said yes; she explained that her neighbor said he is tearing down existing garage and put new garage on existing foundation. Mr. Barbin said if they tear down and put back up have to follow setbacks/zoning ordinance and as long as foundation stays he said we have allowed in the past and said setbacks have some relief in these areas in old mining towns where houses are close together. She mentioned liability when he would take it down if it would damage anything on her property….Mr. Barbin said they touch your garage,etc it would be considered trespassing….and then you could file with District Magistrate. Mr.Senft recommended taking pictures of garage before he does his demolishing. She commented that she already has. Both Ms.Wyandt and Ms. Dusack both commented on the animals/ livestock being in their area..what is allowed. She said someone in past had to get rid of what they had, and new people have moved in and have some. Mr. Richards said this is where you would need to file complaint with codes. Mr. Barbin read from the township zoning ordinance that the animals they are referring to are allowed in District A (Agricultural) but outside of District A you need at least 5 acres to maintain animals, no horses/cows outside District A and have to put up fence and feed/water the animals, clean up manure/manure storage ,chicken coops or other building to house animals located at least 50 feet from neighboring property, and would need special permit to do outside of District A. Next, Ms.Wyandt asked about burn permits. She said one neighbor she thinks does not have permit and/or is not burning according to what it states on permit; and mentioned he is burning building materials from his business. Mr. Barbin stated that you are not supposed to burn building/construction materials that it is against PA laws and DEP laws. Mr. Richards said to call police in that situation. She also brought up a car that that has been sitting along street and is close to fire hydrant; has been there since last fall. She asked how feet may away car needs to be from hydrant, and someone answered 15 feet . She said police had been there for another issue ; would think they would ask for car to be moved. Mr. Richards said we can get police to check that address on Centennial ;she said they know address. She mentioned another address where some young men are residing where garbage/trash is piling up.Mr. Richards replied that we can turn that address into codes to check out. She inquired also about 1274 Centennial where garage collapsed. Mr. Bucci said that codes sent background information for citation to police to fill out identifiers so charges can be filed. Then, she brought up ditches behind her residence and other residences that previously she has tried to upkeep and try to keep clean. She said they all need opened. Someone asked whose property they are. She said Berwind’s. Mr.Gdula said we have cleaned these ditches in the past so water would run freely. Mr. Richards said Mr.Senft Roadmaster can clean ditches ; Mr.Senft was not sure which one and /or where is clogged. Mr. Richards informed him on area where ditches are located. Lastly, Ms.Wyandt and Ms. Dusack said there are trucks hauling gravel(coal trucks?) that are going too fast in their area ;concerned since there are kids in the area. Mr. Richards said they are coming out of quarry back there and are bonded. She asked about posting speed limit signs and having police watch speed and the Board said would be the state since that is a state road for sign, and we can let police know about speeding. Both ladies mentioned cats…..one neighbor lady has lots of cats . Mr. Richards said cats are not required to have license like dogs. Attorney Barbin said animal control won’t do anything. He said in another township in the past they considered a cat nuisance ordinance but didn’t end up doing because the questions were how many cats do you allow 3 or 5 ? and people could say well that isn’t mine that’s a stray,etc. that the rules would be frowned upon; he said it is something that is hard to get a handle on.
Mr. Bob Cooper here for second time about water runoff/flooding; said it’s not all coming from his roof. He said he is considering putting in leech bed to help problem ; wants some guidance wants to know how close to come to road with right of way; how far from road is right of way. Mr.Gdula said the right of way in there a lot of the roads are 50 feet but there are some that are 60 feet right of way such as Adams; that he would need to measure from roadway towards his property. He mentioned he still has property stake that is 10 feet from road by electrical box ; mentioned previous conversation about animals and said his neighbor’s dog barks a lot; called police and was told to listen how long it barks for. Mr. Barbin said if he would do a leech bed ; is part clay ; water will run out over and if it would come out onto road and get icy/freeze then the township would tell you do something different. Mr. Cooper questioned/asked what else or where else he could do something for water runoff; reiterated he gets lots of water; has 2 sump pumps running and still doesn’t help; still gets water. He mentioned an open ditch along Oakridge ; questioned if that is allowed. Mr. Barbin said yes it is if you close it you need a DEP permit where you don’t if you have an open one. Also, he mentioned about water comes across road from Adams ; and goes down his driveway (driveway is concave) . Mr.Gdula said from road to his garage is downhill and mentioned that are natural springs back in Beauty line area also and that he not only one that gets water; has been at least 4 homes that had to get water pumped from basements over years; . Mr. Cooper also mentioned he has lived there for 39 years has had water issues since day 1; mentioned when sewer line went in ;what contractor did; Mr. Barbin said that could be it; water went into sewer lines before ; said there could have been cracks in line before. Mr.Gdula said his sewer must flow downhill; guys questioned where sewer lines were installed? Mr. Cooper said he has old video of when it was put in. Mr.Gdula said where does his French drain line go to? He said French drain could be his problem ; it may have no outlet ;is running along foundation and into yard. Mr. Schrader asked about French drain ;where is it located ; does it work? Mr. Cooper said it is by foundation and yes it is working. Next ,he mentioned a culvert is needed. Mr.Gdula said yes that could be done that but where do you take the runoff water to ? Have an inlet but need an outlet for drainage. He mentioned the leech bed again; Mr.Gdula said the water will fill up in there; still need an outlet for water. Mr.Gdula and Mr. Richards said Mr.Senft as Roadmaster can come look at road and see what can be done ( a swell) so that water does not come across his driveway from road but the other water is his to fix (whether it is coming from underground) or somewhere else. Mr.Senft said he did go over there one day if it is house he is thinking to look what he could do. Mr. Richards and Mr.Gdula both said again that the water coming across Adams Drive Mr.Senft could use grader/create a swell so that water would not run towards his property and other water is his to figure out what to do/where is coming from.
ADJOURNMENT:
Mr. Richards stated with no other township business to conduct he would entertain a motion to adjourn. Mr. Senft made the motion, second by Mr. Gdula. With all in favor, motion passed, and the meeting adjourned at 6:02 PM..
