UNT Supervisors Meeting – June 15, 2022
ANNOUNCEMENTS
The Recreation Committee is hosting a showing of Encanto on Saturday, June 18th, 8:00PM at Tuskes Park. Free popcorn and water will be provided by the Fire Department.
There is an open position on the Environmental Action Committee. Anyone interested in volunteering should contact the Township office
PUBLIC COMMENT
Residents on St. Elmo Street lodged a complaint about a distressed property in their neighborhood which is infested with rats. The situation is so bad the rats are now spreading to other houses in the area forcing residents to contract with pest removal services to prevent a rodent invasion in their own house. The homeowner of the distressed property does not even sleep in the house anymore but spends nights in her car.
Supervisor Robert Disbrow brought up another distressed property the township should look into on George Street. Lisa Klem says the owner does not live there but they are trying to get in contact with them.
