·Doylestown, PA
Minutes

During a Doylestown Township Board of Supervisors budget work session on September 2, 2025, the board discussed the Community Recreation Center project, which had been budgeted with a 3% contingency but experienced cost overruns addressed through change orders, with the USTA grant funds fully exhausted. A key discussion point centered on security camera installation for the courts, where Supervisor Nancy Santacecilia requested a cost estimate and further board deliberation before deferring the purchase, while Chief Zeigler noted the value of cameras and staff confirmed the township's use of a budget-friendly Rhombus camera system accessible to the Police Department. Director of Operations Dave Tomko identified that a 5% contingency would have been more appropriate for the project and reported that no additional changes to owner-supplied item spending were anticipated.
