Overview: In a recent meeting, the Springfield Township Council engaged in a discussion over the responsibility for utility pole maintenance, a debate sparked by a discrepancy between the township’s stance and that of the utility company jcpnl. This issue was brought to the forefront as Mayor Chris Weber questioned the financial obligations of the township regarding the maintenance costs. The matter remains unresolved. The council also authorized payment for the relocation of a utility pole that interfered with a sewer line, with provisions for potential reimbursement from jcpnl.
