Lower Towamensing seeks estimate for sewage system

Lower Towamensing Township supervisors last week approved an estimate for replacement of an on-lot sewage disposal system at one of its recreation facilities.

The estimate unanimously approved by the board is in the amount of $800 from Creekside Consultants LLC.

It’s for the completion of a design plan for replacement of an on-lot sewage disposal system for the Stoney Ridge Park and Recreation Center.

The action came following discussion on the facility, namely with regard to the septic system and the ball field.

Former Supervisor Brent Green, who currently serves as code enforcement officer, said there was never an agreement.

Supervisor Jay Mullikin said that he would like to see an agreement signed if they intend to use it.

Township solicitor Jim Nanovic suggested that the township send them a letter to ask if they wish to use the field and meet with the supervisors.

The topic of reactivating the township’s recreation board was then broached.

Green said that the board is basically an advisory board to the township, but that in the past, it was a very active group.

The building is now used as a recreation center at Stoney Ridge. Its 27 acres were sold to the township in 2001 by the Knights of Columbus.
