Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Millcreek Township public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Transition Advisory Committee legal counsel
The TAC needs a lawyer to help draft the new administrative code for the incoming council-manager government. The board chose the solicitor's own firm at no extra hourly cost, over TAC members' push for an independent firm.
FY2026 CDBG Action Plan
The township is applying for federal housing and urban development funds to support community projects.
Streetlight assessment fairness
Resident Edith Benson asked the board to study whether all township residents — not just those near a pole — should pay streetlight assessments, and whether the township should own the poles for better control over Penelec service.
Police Pension Contribution Rate
The township set the police pension contribution rate at 5.50% for 2026, keeping it level with the previous year.
Solicitor costs and fire chief residency
Former government study commissioner Art Oligeri criticized the township's high legal fees and the hiring of fire chiefs from out of state, arguing local candidates and volunteers were overlooked.
