Eldred Township Supervisor Vice-Chairman Gretchen Gannon-Petit said that SAMR Electronics requested permission to place a recycling container at the township building. Supervisor Chairman Clair Borger said he was not in favor of it because he could see it becoming a trash site.

The board agreed to tabling the issue until further information could be obtained.Kaspszyk said he received a letter from the attorney for Alpine Rose and it asks if Alpine Motorsports, LLC needs a lot line deletion/consolidation for the seven tax parcels that were deeded from Elizabeth Mertz to Alpine Asset Holding for a total of 351 acres and the one tax parcel deeded totaling 2.7 acres, from William and Theresa Morcom to Alpine Asset Holding.
