North Cornwall awards paving project

This article was funded by LebTown donors as part of our Civic Impact Reporting Project.

The North Cornwall Township Board of Supervisors unanimously agreed Tuesday to award the 2026 paving project to Pennsy Supply, with a low bid of $465,302.65.

The project, which came in just under budget, includes the paving of Forney Road, Village Drive, Helen Drive, Tuck Street, a section of Walnut Street, a section of Wilhelm Avenue, Kreiser Street, South Eighth Street, and Nancy Lee Avenue. The project spans around three miles of township roads.

Pennsy Supply was the lowest of three bids received for the project.

Supervisors also unanimously agreed to sign a letter of intent to join the steering committee for a regional fire commission, which may include Annville, North Cornwall, West Cornwall, and West Lebanon townships and Cleona and Cornwall boroughs.

Supervisors agreed to join the committee, but this does not bind the township to participating in a potential regionalized department.

So far, township manager Justin Thompson said, Cleona and West Lebanon townships have formally agreed to join the committee. Others plan to act this month.

In other news, supervisors:

• Unanimously agreed to advertise for a part-time seasonal worker for summer park maintenance, with $12,000 budgeted for the role.
• Unanimously agreed to advertise an ordinance for a cable franchise agreement.
• Unanimously approved meeting minutes and the treasurer’s report, with supervisor William Yeagley abstained from some checks.

North Cornwall supervisors meet the first and third Tuesday of each month at 6 p.m. Meetings are open to the public and do not require prior registration.
