Cranberry Awards $2.3M Paving Program, $172K Police Renovation Design, and $202K Fitness Court
Supervisors formally approved the 2026 paving program totaling $2.34 million across three contracts, awarded $172,000 for Police Department renovation design, $201,739 for a Fitness Court at Graham Park, and $217,520 for Coal Run culvert engineering, while recognizing the Parks Department for two state awards.
Cranberry Township's Board of Supervisors formally approved more than $4 million in contracts at their April 2 regular meeting, anchored by a $2.34 million road paving program and design work for the final phase of Municipal Center renovations.
The meeting began with the board recognizing the Parks and Recreation Department for receiving two Pennsylvania Recreation and Park Society Awards for Excellence — the only municipal program in the state to earn multiple honors at the 2026 PRPS conference. The first award recognized Cranberry's state-certified childcare programs, which served more than 500 children in 2025. The second highlighted the Sensory-Friendly Community Events Initiative, which introduced designated sensory-friendly hours at major community events.
The 2026 Paving Program received formal approval in three parts: $1,155,278 to Youngblood Paving for Superpave asphalt resurfacing across five alternates, $1,057,630 to Russell Standard for fiber reinforced chip seal with fog sealcoat, cape seal, and crack seal work, and $125,625 to Pavement Technology for pavement rejuvenator treatment. The multi-pronged approach uses different preservation methods based on each road's condition and traffic volume.
Two major design contracts signal the Township's next investments. A $172,000 contract with Designstream LLC will plan the Police Department renovations — the final phase of a multi-year Municipal Center overhaul addressing deferred maintenance in the Police, Human Resources, and Information Technology departments, plus mechanical system upgrades for energy efficiency. Separately, EADS Group received $217,520 for the Upper Coal Run Culvert Design, which will include preliminary design development, hydraulic and hydrologic modeling, and cost estimating to address drainage issues within the watershed.
The Cranberry Foundation's 2026 Project of the Year moved to construction phase, with Holbein Inc. awarded $201,739 for the Fitness Court Studio at Graham Park. The outdoor fitness facility is funded by the Cranberry Foundation and supplemented by a $30,000 National Fitness Campaign grant.
Additional contract awards included $57,500 to Seal Pro for resurfacing 13 pickleball courts at Graham Park, $64,000 to G & W Roofing for roof replacement at the Haine Fire Station and Public Safety Training Center (storm-damaged in 2025), and $59,190 to HRG for Community Park Phase 2 design — which will add a basketball court, three sand volleyball courts, and parking along Ernie Mashuda Drive.
Equipment purchases totaled nearly $186,000: a 2026 CAT 285 Compact Track Loader ($115,990) replacing a 2012 Bobcat, a CAT PC310 Planer ($32,400) for road repair, and $37,250 in banquet room chairs for the Cranberry Highlands Golf Course clubhouse.
The board approved two Park Place subdivision amendments creating seven additional housing units along Nolan Circle in the Phase 8B Development: Amendment No. 78 adds four units on Lot 8-30 and Amendment No. 79 adds three units on Lot 8-13. Both passed 5-0.
Ongoing capital work continues at significant scale. Partial payments approved included $727,594 for the Solids Handling Upgrade general contractor (Kukurin Contracting), with additional payments of $31,442 for HVAC, $11,161 for plumbing, and $64,084 for electrical on the same project. Community Park North Improvements drew $42,872 for general construction and $28,461 for electrical work.
Supervisors also authorized the 2026 Line Painting Program for bid and approved sanitary sewer easements at 4030 and 4040 Glen Eden Road to accommodate a new force main serving two proposed residential homes.
