Upper Merion Township • Montgomery County, Pennsylvania • www.umtownship.org
Upper Merion's Government Access
Channel has provided programming since
1996, and over the years we have produced
award winning television shows. This 24/7
community service channel is found on
Verizon (Channel 33) and Comcast
(Channel 22). UMGA-TV's Community
Bulletin Board enables residents to
publicize local events. These productions
are enhanced with special graphics and
broadcasted multiple times throughout the
day. The Board of Supervisors meetings are
televised live and rebroadcasted until the
next scheduled meeting. UMGA-TV
produces several PSA's and original
programs; the longer formatted magazine
shows are produced, written, voiced, and
edited by the township's television staff or
professional consultants.

Words Matter
Pending bid procedings the following
roads will be resurfaced by the Public
Works Department in 2015. For

The Township's IT Department earns
Silver recognition by the State
Electronics Challenge, a national
environmental leadership program, for
its accomplishments in expanding its
green procurement and responsible
recycling of electronic office equipment
in 2014. This
is the second
year the
township
participated:
moving up to
silver status.
From time to time police officers hear
parents telling their children, if they
don't behave the police are going to
arrest them. We all know how difficult
being a parent is, but research has
shown that statements like these make
children afraid of the police. As part of
a new program, the Upper Merion
Township Police Department will now
give parents a small card as a gentle
reminder to explain that the police
want the children to come to them if
they need help and to not run in fear.
The card encourages the parent to stop
and introduce the child to the officer.

Dear Parent or Guardian,
Are you riding your bike with a
helmet? The Upper Merion Police
Department is looking for you.
Petrucci's at Nor View Farm is
partnering with the Upper Merion
Police Department to encourage
children to ride their bikes with a
helmet. If an officer spots a child with a
helmet they may pull them over and
issue them a Petrucci's coupon for a
FREE small water ice that is valid for
the 2015 season.

I know there is no tougher
job than being a parent.
Do you know that when you tell your
children that I will arrest them if they
are bad, you have made your child
afraid of me?
If your child gets separated from you,
is scared or in danger, I would love to
be the person your child looks to for
help.

Crow Creek Restored
Streams have always been used to meet
human needs and when activist,
residents and a supportive local
government work with the state
government, streams can be restored.
Many years ago, Indians used streams
for footpaths, drinking water, and
fishing because walking a stream was
easier than walking through a forest.
Today the need for streams have
changed; Springbrook residents want a
free-flowing, natural stream that would
be visually beautiful and
environmentally friendly for animals
and plants. So, for the first time since
the 1790's, the Springbrook
Homeowners Association, with
support and guidance from Upper
Merion Township officials and the
Pennsylvania Department of Dam
Safety, decided to remove Upper
Croton Lake Dam.
But dam removal is a complex and
expensive undertaking. Fortunately,
Pennsylvania provides Growing
Greener Grants to support stream
restoration. Upper Merion Township
acted as the grant sponsor for the
Springbrook residents' grant
application. UMT's leaders and experts
were critical in receiving the $78,570
looking, unnatural dams are gone and
Crow Creek has been restored to a
beautiful, natural, free-flowing stream.
When activist residents and a
supportive local government work
with state government, streams can be
restored to meet current human needs.

Congratulations BCA Recipients
Recipients of the Board of Community Assistance (BCA) grants and scholarships were recognized on June 23, 2015 at a
private reception at the Valley Forge Casino Resort. The Board of Community Assistance was established by the Board of
Supervisors and Valley Forge Casino Resort to provide grants to organizations that serve Upper Merion residents and awards
scholarships to high school seniors from Upper Merion Township who are continuing their education. All scholarships,
which vary in amounts, depend on the number and qualifications of the applicants. This year the BCA awarded a $10,000 and
a $5,000 scholarship to two senior students. The $10,000 scholarship, known as the General von Steuben Scholarship, is the
largest scholarship awarded during the BCA's three year history. The $5,000 scholarship is named after former township
manager Ronald G. Wagenmann. More than $145,000 was granted to 68 recipients: 38 community organizations and 30
scholarships. "It was a pleasure to see so many important organizations and deserving students being honored," said
Supervisor Greg Waks. Visit www.umtownship.org for more information. Check the UMGA-TV programming schedule for
the dates and times for the BCA awards presentation.
