The Lower Paxton Township Board of Supervisors held its business meeting on October 20, 2026. The board approved a three-year, $27,000 agreement with ReciteMe for website and document accessibility compliance services and staff training; the stated schedule was $11,000 in the first year and $8,000 in each of the next two years. The board also considered the proposed 2027 budget, which showed an estimated $867,000 general-fund deficit. Changes included a roughly $380,000 reduction in projected health-care costs, $25,000 for Pennsylvania Municipal League dues, and $192,600 for an economic-development cost center. The board voted on the proposed budget, but the transcript’s roll-call result is incomplete. A resolution transferring certain developer-installed stormwater facilities to the authority was approved. No other contract awards or purchasing approvals were identified.
In a conditional-use hearing, the board approved application 26-01 for Local Dispensaries LLC, doing business as Zen Leaf, to relocate its medical-marijuana dispensary to 4206 Union Deposit Road. The approval motion was amended to include police access to the facility’s camera footage. The applicant described a planned investment exceeding $500,000, but this was private investment rather than a township procurement. The board tabled a subdivision plan to allow further discussion of requested deferrals or waivers for sidewalks, curbing, and street improvements; the transcript also includes public concerns about legal spending and the township’s budget pressures.
