Roadmaster reports completed paving, failing pipes to be replaced

Yellow Mountain and Forest paving operations were reported complete; Roadmaster Tom Showalter said crews will "back up edges" after the pavement hardens and that the crew has performed basin work at the sewer plant and routine equipment servicing. The board recorded that shoulder mowing was completed and that the township’s new pickleball court is rough graded.

Showalter also reported two failing stormwater pipes: "A pipe on Swamp Church Road is failing. It will be replaced by an 18” concrete elliptical pipe," he said, and a separate pipe on Mechanic Street will need replacement within the next few weeks. These repairs and the recent paving are part of routine road maintenance funded through the township’s operations budget; no additional appropriation was recorded in the meeting minutes.
