Transition Advisory Committee Meeting 11/5/2026

Millcreek Township’s Transition Advisory Committee met on November 5, 2026, to plan its administrative-code review, township-manager search, and public outreach about the transition to the new form of government. For the manager search, members discussed preparing an RFP/RFQ or similar solicitation for a search firm, including having the firm help develop candidate qualifications. Keystone Municipal Solutions was noted as offering a flat-fee approach, with comparable work said to typically cost about $12,000–$15,000; its proposal was still pending, and no firm was selected or contract awarded. The proposed 2027 budget includes $50,000 for the manager search and $1,500 for advertising, though the budget has not been finalized. Members discussed planning for the incoming council to have input in selecting the manager.

The committee outlined four administrative-code subcommittee meetings in November and December, with findings to be brought to the full committee in December and January; council compensation and other code questions will receive further review. The committee also discussed short public-information videos and other outreach, including township publications and social media. A vote on the proposed meeting schedule was deferred until December. No procurement award or final spending approval was identified.
