Government Transition Advisory Committee Meeting 8/6/2026

The Millcreek Township Government Transition Advisory Committee met on August 6, 2026, primarily to discuss the administrative code revision process and compensation for future council members. The committee expressed concerns about the current approach of having township employees draft the administrative code, citing potential conflicts of interest and lack of expertise, and advocated for issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) to engage external professionals to ensure a timely and accurate code development. The committee voted to send a formal letter to the supervisors outlining these concerns and recommending approval and funding of the RFP. Additionally, the committee reviewed compensation data from similar townships to recommend a stipend for future council members, but deferred a final decision to a future meeting to gather more comparative data. The committee emphasized its advisory role and the importance of clear communication with the public and supervisors throughout the transition process.
