July 28, 2004

A regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors of West Goshen Township was called to order by Chairman Patricia B. McIlvaine at 4:02 p.m. on Wednesday, July 28, 2004, at the West Goshen Township Administration Building.  All members were present.  Ms. McIlvaine opened the meeting with the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.

Ms. McIlvaine opened the floor for public comment. No comments were made.

Ms. McIlvaine announced the appointment of Michael T. Arnold as Alternate member of the West Goshen Township Sewer Authority Board.  She said that this will negate the appointment made on March 10, 2004, of Ms. Jeanne M. Denham to this position.

Ms. Evelyn Baker, 900 Sheridan Drive, inquired as to Mr. Arnold's qualifications for the position and Dr. White replied that Mr. Arnold is an accountant who lives in the Village of Shannon and was recommended for appointment by the Sewer Authority Board after six candidates were interviewed by the Board of Supervisors and members of the Sewer Authority Board.  He added that the Sewer Authority Board wanted to add a member with a financial background rather than an engineering background who could provide guidance in that area for future projects.

Dr. White announced that the Board of Supervisors met in executive session on this date to discuss real estate matters.

On motion by Mr. Meakim, seconded by Dr. White, the Board unanimously approved the bills to be paid from the General Fund, the Sewer Fund, the Capital Reserve Fund, and the Waste and Recycling Fund.

Mingey was present to represent the plan.

Ms. McIlvaine opened the floor for public comment. No comments were made.
