Pledge of Allegiance.   Chairman Walkerled the group in the pledge.

 

                             Oath of Office.   Both Supervisors Hannum and Sarro had submitted the sworn Oath of Office to the Township in advance of the meeting.  Chairman Walker administered the oath for both of the  newly elected supervisors at the Public Meeting.

Public Comment Period.    Mr. Hicks of W. Locust Lane asked when the Township Auditors would be meeting.  Mr. Walker explained that there is presently no quorum, but the Supervisors will be appointing auditors soon.

Minutes of Decembers 2, 2013.  By unanimous vote (3-0, with Mr. Caudill abstaining) the minutes were approved as prepared.

Glenelg Escrow Release.   Steve Cope was present for the request.  By unanimous vote (5-0), the Supervisors approved the release of $18,535 of escrowed funds.

Unionville Park Payment.  The request for payment was postponed pending additional information.

Proposed Unionville Teen Center.    Kathy Brown spoke, representing a group of Unionville-Chadds Ford School District residents.  The group is proposing a teen center near Unionville, similar to that located in Kennett Borough.   They would anticipate that the center would be a meeting place, offering fun events, crafts, games, in addition to assistance with homework.    The presentation was for preliminary information only; there was no action requested from the Supervisors.

Unionville 5K Run.  Mr. Johnson requested approval for partial closure of specified roads in East Marlborough on April 5, 2014 for the run.  This is the third year of the fund-raising race.  Residents of the affected communities (LaReserve and Fox Lee) have provided support.  By unanimous vote (5-0), the Board approved the limited road closures, pending receipt of the insurance certificate for the event.

Stryker conditional Use.  Supervisors Walker, Weer, and Hannum were the only Board members who had been present at the hearing and therefore the only ones voting.  The Conditional Use Order was approved by a vote of 3-0, with Supervisors Caudill and Sarro abstaining.  There were eleven separate conditions in the order; all were approved by the same 3-0 vote.   The separate items included:

1) Property must be used in accordance with the sworn testimony,

2) There shall be no expansion of the building, except for compliance with ADA and PA Department of Labor and Industry regulations,

3)  The western-most parking space behind the building must be eliminated to provide clear access for emergency vehicles,
