(9/2021) Liberty Township would like to thank the Blue Ridge Sportsman’s Club for donating $4,395 to our Police Department to purchase a new ENRADD. We thank them for their kindness and willingness to work with our police department.

August has been a productive month at Liberty Township. The road crew has been working on McGlaughlin Road cutting the road in preparation for base repair in September. McGlaughlin Road is scheduled for paving in 2022. Waste from road projects earlier in the year resulted in mixed size ground blacktop millings. If anyone is interested in this blacktop fill, please contact the township. After signing a release form, the township will deliver the material to your Fairfield area location free of charge.

There is a vacancy on the Liberty Township Planning Commission. This commission meets on the third Tuesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. as needed to review Subdivision and Land Development plans. Liberty Township residents who are interested in municipal planning and can commit to attending the meetings are encouraged to contact the township with a letter of interest. Training will be provided.

During our Board of Supervisors meeting in August, the Mid-Atlantic Soaring Association presented information on a proposed new hanger and renovations to the clubhouse/terminal at the airport on Pecher Road. M-ASA is looking for support from Liberty Township as part of an application for grant funds for this project. The Board agreed that it was important to obtain input from Liberty Township residents before making a decision to support the project. A special public meeting will be held on September 7, at 6:30 p.m. regarding the Mid-Atlantic Soaring Association proposed improvements. The special meeting will begin one hour before the regular monthly Board of Supervisors meeting at the Liberty Township Municipal Building. Residents are encouraged to attend this open meeting and offer comments on this project.

School is back in session so please be mindful that the school buses will be on the roads and please be cautious of the children waiting at their bus stops. Remember when the busses have their flashing red lights on you must stop. Our police officers will be vigilant for activity at bus stops. The objective is to continue to keep everyone safe in our community. God Bless!
