The board of the Township supports the Trustee in her duties of providing assistance and support to the community.
I want to know my neighbors better, understand the challenges they face on a day-to-day basis and be able to assist them in any way possible.
The board continually monitors the financial resources and the needs of the community. In the past year, we have completed a beautiful community center that can be used by residents of the Township, as well as added a food pantry for anyone who needs assistance in feeding themselves, and/or their family. We will also be adding a community garden.
The Trustee’s telephone number is monitored 24/7, enabling us to provide emergency services to those affected by a sudden fire or other situation. We recently coordinated 100 volunteers to help clean up the neighborhood severely affected by the tornado that ripped through the Township a couple weeks ago.
