Special Meeting
Summary
Halifax Township's Board of Supervisors held a brief Special Meeting on February 23, 2017, called to order at 7:18 p.m. by Chairman Kenneth Bechtel. Supervisors Brad Bruner and Randy Paul were present in person, while Steve Schreffler participated via telephone conference; Scott McBurney was absent. The meeting was called to handle two pending administrative items and adjourned in under 30 minutes.
- Tax collector's compensation rate set for 2018 and beyond: The board unanimously approved (4-0) a resolution establishing the tax collector's rate going forward. This item had been revisited from a February 2016 meeting, meaning it had been pending for approximately a year before final action.
