I'm running for Supervisor because the residents matter......

In July of 2020 the Plainfield Township Board of Supervisors voted against re-zoning land East of Pen Argyl Road from Farm and Forest to create a new Solid Waste Zoning District requested by WM/GCSL. I was on the Board at that time and made the motion. The Board is under no obligation to rezone the land. The Township has already provided for the use.  In September of 2024 a new proposal with the same request was submitted. Although the Plainfield Township Planning Commission reviewed the plan and recommended the Board not rezone the area at the April 24, 2025 Board meeting Ken Field made a motion and Jonathan Itterly seconded to hire a planning agency with no knowledge of the Township history to conduct another review. Nolan Kemmerer and Ken Fairchild voted for the hire and Glenn Borger voted no. What will the current Board do?  The Planning Commission brought up many relevant issues. It appears the Board may be delaying the vote until after the primary election. 

I have asked for a candidate's night or a debate. One of the candidates stated he doesn't have time. Voters need to know what candidates stand for. In local elections major issues such as rezoning over 211+ acres near residential areas for waste disposal has a huge impact on people living there. The resident's matter. 

It is time to move toward a vision of a Township that survives and thrives after the landfill closes in approximately 3 plus years. The children and residents deserve a future that doesn't rely on mountains of waste. 

I believe in .................................

- Public service and open government

- Planning Financially to limit real estate tax increases

- In having a Township Finance Committee to conduct reviews

- Long Range Planning Committee to assist the Board with reviews
- Preserving valuable resources for future generations
- Respect for emergency services
- In 5-7 year, Township Road improvement planning

- A common sense approach to government
