I haven't made up my mind but I see at least two benefits.

Pete Stainthorpe

They have donated up to $600 worth of donated time and materials to the township.

Dave Mcaninch

At the time, the county planning commission strongly recommended that the township approve the rezoning so that the big retail center could be placed farther away from the roadway, so that we could work with the township and Wal-Mart to develop an access plan to minimize traffic congestion on 310. Realistically, now we have limited options available to develop appropriate access.

Everyone in Niles Township thanks you for coming out here to open your business. We will be more than happy to help you in anyway that we can. We hope that in years to come with the installation of sewer and water further down South 11th Street, which we are working on getting, many more businesses will open their doors in the township and the area will continue to grow.

Bill Myers

It's up to each individual township. If a township wants several different water suppliers, so be it. We thought it would be a lot cleaner this way. This is done in many townships throughout the state.

Wayne Henry

There are still some exceptional teams in the section. Obviously, at the moment, Upper St. Clair and Peters Township are the top two. We're fortunate that we got the first victory.

John Siira

We should have the funds authorized within the next couple of weeks, and then we will sign the contracts with United Water and the township.

Pete Stainthorpe

The ABC's position is apparently that the township council's action doesn't count.

John Ritter

The ultimate thought is, at some point, we could have a trail connection that would run all the way from the very top of Upper Hanover township, actually the highest point in Montgomery County, which is the Mill Hill preservation area, and connect down to the Green Lane Reservoir. Of course from there, the present trail already connects down to Valley Forge and Philadelphia.

Stan Seitzinger

The township would really like to see them put in their own cluster sewer system, like the Kohl's development did across the street.

Bill Giles

There is an element here of trying to wear down the township and the people. But I don't think it's going to work this time. I won't let people forget.

Neil Wallace

We are the only ones being dispatched in Springfield Township. What will happen in the future I can't say. But right now there is no rotation. We're handling all the calls.

I just kind of got gradually better and better, and then one day it clicked, and I did pretty well ever since, I'm going to miss it too much after I leave (Manheim Township).

Amy Smith

We've been having amicable discussions with Pocopson Township authorities, and look forward to reaching an agreement soon.

Gary Fuller

You've heard the expression of the people. That should mean something to the township board.

James Ramey

We called it the 'prouds' and 'sorrys'. The meetings were held to get the public's thoughts about township development. We asked them what they thought about the present development and what they would want in future development.

Jeff Gray

The township has gone overboard in order to avoid controversy and move the matter along, so no claim of good faith could be made.

Lawrence Sager

We have some real deep holes this year, that's for sure. East had a great recruiting year; Cherry Hill West got stronger; Washington Township is stronger.

John Casadia

This is probably the most excitement there's been in Baldwin Township in years.

Michael Reich

These were problems they knew about when they designed it. We met with ODOT.

We have flash flooding with less rainfall; property is being damaged and township roads are being flooded.

Charles Fuller

Lenox Township has 1,300 homes right now. We think some time in the next 10 years we'll build about 4,000 homes. We should see a 400-home increase in just the next few years.

John W. Gardner

I don't want to be caught behind. We're looking at possibly a second fire station. We're looking at something in Troy Township because it is the farthest away from our current station. Our goal is to provide more protection.

Troy Morris

The budget was the best we could do. It was at cap. We had put back in lower class sizes, and we had added personnel back in. I don't know what the Township Council will ask for, but I'm very disappointed.

Schools Dennis Mack

I was acting out of the good of the people of the High Bar section of the township.

Robert Palmer

The momentum has begun toward our goal of a creating a first-class retail destination for Cranberry township.

Robert Wiley

Madison Township has a large geographical area, and the people there, are mostly farmers, mostly rural community. For that reason, we don't have high population numbers. Our school is the smallest; still, those kids deserve to have their own school.

Ron Simmons

It wasn't necessarily created to spur development, but to solve a problem of the township. But as a result of it being there, developers could come in.

Peter Setou
