Crestwood High Student Government officers read minutes, agenda at meeting.
WRIGHT TWP. — Supervisors on Monday held their meeting with the local Crestwood Student Government and proctored the student officers.
Christina Tometchko, president; Ashley Legg, vice president; Samantha Snyder, recording secretary; Kimberly Price, corresponding secretary; and Ami Patel, treasurer, participated in the reading of the township’s minutes and agenda.
All of the high school student government officers said they had a good experience with how local government is handled and carried out.
In other business, Supervisor Donald Zampetti noted the township’s spring cleanup will be held May 2-7.
Zampetti said that arrangements can be made for pickup of items by calling the supervisors’ office Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. during April.
Dumpsters will be available behind the municipal building for residents to deposit items as well. This will take place Wednesday, May 4, through Friday, May 6, 7 a.m. to noon and 12:45 to 6 p.m. Residents who want to deposit on Saturday, May 7, can do so 8 a.m. to noon and 12:45 to 4 p.m.
Permits to deposit items in the Dumpsters must be purchased in advance and no one will be allowed to deposit items unless they have a permit. Any questions about the cleanup should be directed to the supervisors’ office.
A motion was approved for CCI Waste and Recycling Service Inc. of Dunmore to handle the spring cleanup for the township.
Also, residents in attendance expressed concerns that Washington Park is disintegrating. Zampetti said patching, where necessary, will be done in the park. He also said that after the spring cleanup is complete, he has plans to improve all streets in the park in need of paving.
Supervisors hired Borton Lawson to amend SALDO (Subdivision and Land Development Ordinances) and Zoning Ordinances to coincide with the mandatory Act 167 stormwater ordinance.
Supervisor Daniel Frascella wanted residents to know the township is taking donations for the township’s July Fourth fireworks show.
