LINDEN — Mid-Penn Engineering will review Woodward Township’s stormwater management ordinance to ensure it is in compliance with state requirements, according to the supervisors.

The supervisors on Wednesday agreed to have Gary Knarr, zoning administrator, give a copy of the ordinance to Mid-Penn.

“I did speak with Mid-Penn as far as to do our storm water update,” said Knarr. He said the engineering firm would review the existing ordinance and make recommendations if they believe any changes need to made.

When the ordinance is properly amended, Mid-Penn will reach back to the Lycoming County Planning Commission and make sure the modifications meet the stormwater policy of the county as well as the state Department of Environmental Protection.

Knarr explained that Mid-Penn estimated that it would take five to 10 hours to review the ordinance and it would cost the borough between $500 and $1,000.

“I don’t see any issue with that,” said Supervisor Alan Worth. The board unanimously approved the project, which is aimed at maintaining township standards for its stormwater ordinance.

In other business, the supervisors unanimously agreed to apply for aid from Lycoming County in the amount of $2,500 for road repairs.

The aid would assist in paying for the seal-coating of “various roads,” said Supervisor Wayne Robinson.

According to Worth, about two to three miles of the township’s 19 miles of road need to be re-sealed using the “tar and chip” method.

In another matter, Worth praised Robinson and the other men on the road crew for monitoring the weather during recent heavy rains. Their actions prevented the roads from backing up or flooding, he said.

Robinson confirmed that he and his crew “worked a lot of all-nighters,” taking measures to “keep the water flowing and keep it moving.”

“Most people don’t realize we do that stuff at night because they’re in bed,” said Robinson.

In other business, Worth issued a warning about mailers seeking donations to local fire departments. He said those are not from the Woodward Township Fire Department and cautioned people to be wary.

“That’s something to watch for,” Worth said.

Besides Worth and Robinson, Jack Coleman attended the meeting. The next Woodward Township meeting is at 7 p.m. Sept. 19 at the township building along Route 220.
