Supervisors vote to eliminate second-Wednesday regular meeting

The Board of Supervisors voted to change its regular meeting calendar by eliminating the second-Wednesday regular meeting, keeping a workshop on the third Wednesday and a board meeting on the fourth Wednesday of each month.

A supervisor argued the board could accomplish most business in one workshop and one meeting each month and that reducing setup and advertising burdens would be more efficient. Opponents raised concerns that eliminating a regularly scheduled meeting would create longer gaps between meetings — "three weeks" was cited as a possible span — and might hamper responsiveness while the township deals with a heavy workload. The motion passed with a recorded tally reported as four in favor and one opposed.

The board noted that special meetings may still be advertised if needed for time-sensitive matters.
