DISCUSSION: Deputy Clerk Kisty added this site is located on So. Hope Chapel Road near the recycling facilities and this is part of a sub-station. Councilman Bressi stated when Ordinances & Resolutions come through, there should be back up with reference to a main and cross street. It’s hard enough for us to follow it and the public needs to follow it. I have been asking for this for years and can’t seem to get it. Should this happen again, I will ask it be pulled. Councilwoman Updegrave concurs asking for this in the past. Council President Nixon officially requested that information from this point and Ms. Kisty will pass it along to the staff and Township Clerk Eden.
