During the Board of Commissioners meeting March 21, the Lower Macungie Township Board of Commissioners approved Resolutions 2019-10 and 11.

These resolutions authorize execution of documents to convey agricultural conservation easements on the Weiner Tract to Lehigh County and the State of Pennsylvania. This will ensure permanent protection.

The oath of office was administered to special fire police members John Bergstresser, Michael Christ, James Doherty, Dale Frizzell, Donald Hoffman, James Honer, Bryan Miller and Joseph Thompson.
