Here’s a quick rundown of the September Supervisor’s Meeting:

A moment of silence was held in memory of Terry Kuntz, who died suddenly last week. Terry had been a vibrant member of the township government as Emergency Management Coordinator and as Bridgeton’s liaison to the Upper Bucks Regional Emergency Medical Services (UBREMS) and as a volunteer trail-building at the Bridgeton Nature Preserve.

Terry was given an Outstanding Service Award, which had been approved prior to his death.

The Short Term Rental Ordinance passed at the August Supervisor’s meeting is in the implementation phase. The Supervisors are in the process of creating an Application Form for a Short Term Rental Permit.
