At the August twentieth meeting of the New Milford Township supervisors, the room’s adornments and seating capacity had been significantly decreased. This was due to planned renovations to the township building.

On August 14th, it was announced, the township had sent out an official letter to award the bid for the construction and upgrade of the township building to Axtell Llc. of Clarks Summit. Due to the expected start of construction, the next month’s meeting was to be in the temporary office (the job trailer), unless the size of the crowd dictated it be held in the garage.

On August eighteenth Montrose borough held their second meeting of the month.  In a previous meeting they had planned to hold a public hearing at that meeting regarding Joe Hunt’s conditional use request for the old Montrose Publishing building project.  With only three council member present however, Mr. Lamont, Mr. Granahan, and Mr. Reimel, there was no quorum.  Therefore action on this item was again postponed. 

It was noted that it would be three weeks, September eighth, before the council again convened for a regular meeting.  They asked Mr. Hunt if this was too late for him, and he related that it was not as his group had obtained the building permit.
