• The Board of Commissioners authorized the sale of an agricultural Conservation easement on the Boys Home property to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in the amount of $1,670,000 or $10,000 per acre. This action will ensure the preservation to the property as open space.

• The Township has been working with Upper St. Clair Township, Representative Nick Kotik, Senator Pippy and Allegheny County on the possible reuse of the old State Mayview Hospital Property. This group has called for the formation of a special task force to begin review of this issue and its possible impacts on the surrounding communities.

The following applications for development have recently been submitted to the Township. All applications for residential and commercial development go through a series of independent reviews and evaluations. The Board of Commissioners is currently considering the following plans:

• The Board approved the Complete Fitness Center site plan which calls for the conversion of an existing building into a Fitness Center located at 3089 Washington Pike.

• The Board approved the Allegheny Place site plan which calls for the construction of a 17,000 Sq Ft commercial building along Presto-Sygan Road.
