» [applause]

71
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:35,680
» At this time, we have a number of
motions to take tonight. Most of which

72
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:39,600
are residents being appointed to our
citizen boards. Um, and a few others.

73
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:44,240
So, we will get started with those
action items. The first, we have a

74
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:49,120
motion to appoint our township
consultants for 2026 and accept their

75
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:54,160
rights that uh their rates. And that
motion will be read by Mr. Nelson.

76
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:58,720
» Thank you, chair. I move that township
council appoint the township consultants

77
00:06:55,919 --> 00:07:02,400
and acceptance rates for 2026 per the
attachment.

78
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,440

motion?

79
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:10,400

>> Thank you, Mr. Winesa. Mr. West will

80
00:07:07,759 --> 00:07:14,400
summarize the process and that document
for us.

81
00:07:11,039 --> 00:07:18,639
» Good. So, this is an annual uh motion
that council needs to take and we

82
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:23,680
identify professional consultants that
work for the township. talking about

83
00:07:20,479 --> 00:07:26,880
solicitor, engineer, labor council, um
sewer engineer, anything that you can

84
00:07:25,199 --> 00:07:31,680
think of that we don't have on permanent
staff. Uh council has that uh option to

85
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,720
appoint them annually. And so this is
what we're doing. We are appointing a

86
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:41,199
list of those consultants which were
included in the public meeting packet

87
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:46,720
for tonight along with the 2026 rates.
>> Rest. Are there any comments or

88
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:50,800
questions from council members?
Hearing none, we will take a roll call

89
00:07:48,479 --> 00:07:53,199
vote. Um, Mr. Monero
>> in favor.

90
00:07:51,599 --> 00:07:54,960

Our second motion of the night is a

94
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,400
motion to adopt a resolution around our
subdivision and land development and

95
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:12,960
consultant review fees. And that motion
will be read by Miss Frederick Boner.

96
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:17,919
I move that township council adopt
resolution 2026-01

97
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:21,280
subdivision land development and
consultant review fees per the

98
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:25,120
attachment.
>> Thank you. There's a motion by Mr. Fred

99
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,599
Glennonard. Is there a second?
>> Second.

100
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,840
» Thank you, Mr. Nelson. Uh Mr. West again
will summarize that document process for

101
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:36,080
us.
>> Great. Thank you. So this is a companion

102
00:08:32,399 --> 00:08:41,360
to action item A. This is very specific
to our land development process. When

103
00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:46,160
our professional consultants are
employed to review any documents related

104
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:50,399
to a land development process, we
actually charge the um the applicant for

105
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:56,399
those fees. And so these are setting
those rates that we will then bill um

106
00:08:53,279 --> 00:09:01,360
those applicants for reimbursement.
>> Any questions or comments from council?

107
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:05,200

vote. Mr. Winchester

» in favor.
>> And the chair votes in favor.

112
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:22,640
Our next series of motions are all
around appointments to our citizen

113
00:09:19,839 --> 00:09:28,160
boards. Oh, I'm sorry. No, one more
before we get to our citizen boards.

114
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:34,320
The the the ultimate citizen board in
indeed.

115
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:36,959
The um our next motion is a motion to uh
approve the employment the ongoing

116
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:41,360
employment agreement between the
township and Mr. West. And so I will

117
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:44,800
formally read that motion. I move that
township council approve the employment

118
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:48,800
agreement between township manager
Matthew West and Plymouth Township. Is

119
00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:52,800
there a second?
>> Second.

120
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:57,839
» Thank you. Any questions or comments
from council members?

121
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,480

129
00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:30,560
Okay. Now, we have a series of
appointments to of residents to our

130
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:36,079
citizen boards, which I will say we are
uh very excited to announce because when

131
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:40,240
residents step up to serve the township,
it's a significant uh contribution to

132
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:43,920
the township. So, we'll take each of
these uh one at a time and just want to

133
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:49,200
recognize each of the uh folks who are
stepping up. The first is a uh motion

134
00:10:46,399 --> 00:10:54,959
that'll be read by Mr. Nelson for an
appointment to the planning agency.

135

have um an open spot where we do not
have an appointment yet to an open spot

00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:47,120
Um, this is to our zoning hearing board

269
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:09,600
» Thank you, Mr. Nelson. And Mr. Freder,
would you read the resolution for us?

270
00:19:07,919 --> 00:19:14,080
» A resolution of Plymouth Township,
County of Montgomery, Commonwealth of

271
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:18,880
PA, appointing Karen Brlett to the
zoning hearing board. Whereas Plymouth

272
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:23,760
Township has established a zoning
hearing board pursuant to the

273
00:19:20,559 --> 00:19:27,919
municipalities planning code 53 PS
10901.

274
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:33,760
And whereas the municipalities planning
code at section 903A requires the

275
00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:38,559
township appoint members to the board by
resolution. And whereas the township

276
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:43,679
desires to appoint Karen Braramblelet to
the board. Now therefore, be it resolved

277
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:48,720
that as of this fifth day of January,
2026, Karen Bramblelet is appointed as

278
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:55,760
member to the Plymouth Township Zoning
Hearing Board with a term that shall

279
00:19:50,559 --> 00:19:59,120
expire on December 31st, 2030.
Presented and adopted by Plymouth

280
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:04,640
Township Council at a public meeting
held on this 5th day of January, 2026.

281
00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:08,200
Thank you. Any questions or comments
from council members?

282
00:20:08,799 --> 00:20:15,679
I will just add our appreciation to
Karen. Karen just finished two terms on

283
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:18,720
council and was interested in continuing
to serve the township on a citizen

284
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:23,609
board. So, just wanted to mention that
we appreciate her stepping up.

285
00:20:21,589 --> 00:20:23,609
[applause]

286
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:33,919
Okay. And we have a final uh motion on
our list, but this is another one that

287
00:20:31,360 --> 00:20:36,720
must be tabled. So, uh we do not have an
appointment at this time, an additional

288
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,919
appointment to the zoning hearing board.
So, I'll just ask for a motion to table

289
00:20:38,559 --> 00:20:42,080
that appointment.
>> So, moved.

290
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:45,440
» Thank you. Is there a second?
>> Second.

291
00:20:42,799 --> 00:20:49,200

Did we miss a roll call vote?
>> Okay. Okay. I was like, I don't know if

298
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:19,280
it's just me. My first my first night as
chair and I've already missed something.

299
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:22,400
All right. So, apparently, uh, we failed
to take a roll call vote for Karen

300
00:21:20,799 --> 00:21:27,600
Braramlet's appointment to the zoning
hearing board. We can't have that

301
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:31,120
happen. So, um, we have a motion. We
have a second. We will take a roll call

302
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:35,360
vote for Karen Bradlet's uh, appointment

Okay.
