Authority Board Meeting 5/26/26

The Lower Paxton Township Authority held a meeting on May 26, 2026, focusing on various operational and capital projects related to sanitary sewer and stormwater management. Key procurement-related actions included the ratification of an engagement letter appointing Salzman Hughes as the new authority solicitor and the approval of the sale of Lots 1 and 2 at Commerce Park for $540,000, generating a profit of $115,000 for the authority. Updates were provided on ongoing sewer televising and repairs, including the Locust Lane sewer inspection ahead of a PennDOT paving project, and the Trunk H sewer replacement project, which is in the design phase with plans to bid early next year. The Wilshire Road low-pressure sanitary sewer extension project was discussed, noting a mandatory connection ordinance for affected homeowners and grant funding covering public costs. Stormwater projects included repairs at Dow Howard and Twin Lakes, a multi-phase Mountain View Acres stormwater project slated to last over a year, and ongoing coordination on an asset management plan with consulting engineers. The board also reviewed reports on complaint management, emergency repairs, and upcoming paving schedules. No new contracts were awarded during the meeting, but several project updates and planning activities were highlighted to support future procurement and construction efforts.
