Hours are 7:30 am. to 6 p.m. al resolutions in preparation for Monday through Friday and 8 — AC TAWMCLID FF 4 ITWNSMHMID Ad IVITRINDITF Fire ordinance discussed By GERI GIBBONS Dallas Post Correspondent Application of the existing fire ordinance was a topic at Tuesday night’s meeting of the supervisors. Chris Vincelli, Elmcrest Park developer, wants to utilize a controlled fire to clear land within that development, but is unsure if the idea falls under the exceptions of the ordinance. Solicitor Thomas Brennan wants to consult with zoning of- ficer Carl Alber before making a final determination on the mat- ter. Supervisor Frank Wagner cautioned that, even if con- trolled fire is approved, the fire department is required to be present to insure safety. The supervisors approved a UGI Energy services contract for April to March 2013 applies to all township buildings, which delineates a “lock-in price” over the term of the contract. The supervisors also ap- proved a resolution that will limit the township’s responsib- ility for mail boxes damaged by township snowplows. Wagner said, “PennDOT doesn’t do it, and neither will we.” The board also discussed at length a natural gas compressor station and metering station scheduled to be installed within the township later this year. Su- pervisors expressed concern at the increased noise that such in- stallations would cause. Tom Doughton, township en- gineer, said he will look into gathering a baseline noise level at the site of the compressors before they are functional so that noise regulations can be more easily enforced in the fu- ture. The board also noted that at- torney Gregory Szallar, repre- senting Acacia Services LLC, requested a postponement of a hearing for approval of an inter- municipal transfer of a liquor li- cense and that the rescheduled hearing will be held at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 3. a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at the mu- nicipal building at 25 Main St. The following fee schedule was approved: cars, small and mid-size SUVs and minivans must purchase a $10 coupon for unlimited entry; small pick-up trucks and full-size and large SUVs must purchase a $15 for each entry; fullsize pickup trucks, utility trailers and cargo vans less than one ton must pur- chase a $25 coupon for each en- try; and large vehicles weighing more than one ton must purchase a $90 coupon for a one entry lim- it.
