CONNOQUENESSING TWP — Supervisors are still set to appoint a person to the Connoquenessing Township Sewer Authority, because one member’s term expired at the end of January.

The supervisors appointed Laura Mason to the authority board in November to fill the term of another member who had resigned. That term expired, but the supervisors tabled the appointment of a new member at a January meeting and a meeting Wednesday, Feb. 1.

Several people spoke in support of Mason, and asked the supervisors to reappoint her to the authority for a full term. The supervisors did not have a motion on the agenda to make an appointment Wednesday, but supervisor Ricky Kradel said he is exploring other options for appointments and ideas for the township’s sewer plan.

“I have some other promising ideas that never materialized,” Kradel said. “They went down by the wayside, and now I still have issues.”

Supervisor chairman Terry Steinheiser said at the meeting that he would like to reappoint Mason, but would honor Kradel’s appeal to review other options.
