“Through the years, I remember sitting at roundtables … doing grassroots organizing to better the township and to make it a more even playing ground.

Scott Chinn
“They are attempting to bury the Orchard Drive issue at No. 42 on the township priority list. This would put the solution to the safety issues several years into the future at best.”
Karen Smith
