South Strabane Township Supervisors took the next steps in amending their 2026 budget. During their voting meeting, they authorized the advertisement of the revised spending plan for 10 days. They also authorized the scheduling of a special voting meeting to take place on February 11 at 6:30 pm to adopt the budget. Both measures passed 3-2 as with all other votes concerning the budget. Supervisors George Rowand, Jeff Bull and Zack Morgan approved, Bob Weber and Russell Grego voted no. Supervisors also adopted a measure to direct the township manager to contact the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development to participate in an information program that could make recommendations for budget allocations. Supervisor Chairman George Rowand says that conversations held with other communities indicate that the 62% of the budget spent on public safety may be out of line. Supervisors also passed an ordinance governing the development of solar farms. The ordinance will be amended to have decommissioning fees increased and property setback lines established at 1000 feet. Supervisors also tabled a measure to advertise draft ordinances for Data Centers, Battery Energy Storage Systems and a noise ordinance. Township Manager Peter Stefansky stated that the ordinances need approval from several other governing bodies before they can be offered for public view. Stefansky also said that each of the ordinances would have public hearings before any official action would be taken.
