Mahoning Township continues to iron out any kinks before it moves into its new headquarters on Route 443.

On a unanimous measure, supervisors on Wednesday approved a price quote of $11,000 from Magnum Excavating for a new septic system at the former Diaz building at 2175 Blakeslee Blvd. Drive West.

The township needs to relocate a new system due to stormwater issues.

“It’s just inundated with water,” Supervisor Ronald Reeser said. “That pump is running constantly.”

“We’re supposed to move in there next month,” Board Chairman Robert Slaw said.

The township hopes to move into the building sometime between mid to late February.

In a related matter, the board approved the land lease of the Diaz property to Nev & Nise Produce Greenhouse.

In May, bids for the township’s new headquarters came in under its anticipated price tag.

Township secretary Natalie Haggerty said that the four low bids came in at $915,201.

In April, supervisors on a 4-0 vote ratified an advertisement to receive bids for the building renovation at the former Diaz building.

That came after supervisors on a 4-0 vote in March agreed to bid out the former Diaz building.

In July 2022, supervisors and township police Chief Audie Metz met at the site, west of Normal Square, with architect Jeffrey Biehn of Watkins Architect.

The purpose of that meeting was to review the renovation project for the building that will house the township’s offices and police department.

Biehn heard feedback from supervisors, including board Chairman Robert Slaw, who said he was on board as long as the price tag was under $1 million.

The former medical office on Route 443, just west of Normal Square, was purchased in July 2021 at a cost of $375,000.

The two-story building and 14 acres of land was assessed at $595,000.

The Mahoning Township Police will use the lower level, and the township offices will be located on the second floor.
