Council approves Main Street, HEDC allocations and tables fire‑commission vote

Hanover Borough Council approved several finance items and deferred a larger decision about the Hanover Area Fire Commission at its Nov. 25 meeting.

Council approved the consent agenda and then voted to authorize legal advertisement for an ordinance designating $40,000 for Main Street (agenda item 6.01). The motion for item 6.01 was moved and seconded and the chair recorded the motion carried. Council then considered 6.02 — a proposed $30,000 HEDC allocation tied to milestones for three $10,000 grants — which was moved, seconded and approved after a show‑of‑hands to reconcile votes from in‑room and Zoom participants.

Earlier in the meeting, the council considered but tabled item 6.03 (related to the fire commission) to allow more study after a staff presentation. The meeting also included an appointment of Officer Joseph Campo to sergeant; the motion carried and the mayor administered the oath of office.

Where recorded, the transcript notes the motions carried; precise roll‑call tallies were not provided for each vote in the public transcript. The chair said formal notices and written agendas will be posted to the borough website when tabulated items return to the agenda.
