The Harrison Township committee held a work session on Oct. 4, a meeting that was open to the public.

The mayor and township committee first authorized the waiver of township-imposed building and subcode-permit fees for residents affected by the Sept. 1 tornado. Many residents are still recovering from the devastation that resulted from Hurricane Ida.
