I have been a resident of Newtown Township since 1995 and a Newtown Supervisor from October 2017 though December 2025 (8 years). 2026 marks the close of my time serving as a Supervisor, and I want to use this moment to express my deep gratitude to the residents of this community. It has truly been an honor to serve you, to be your voice on as a Supervisor, and to work every day with the belief that local government functions best when it is transparent, accountable, and open to the people it represents.
As I step away from the dais, I’m not stepping away from Newtown. I will continue to support transparency, good governance, and resident involvement in every way I can. My hope is that the work we do together continues to strengthen the connection between the governing Board and the public it serves.
The October 2026 News of Interest examines several important issues shaping Newtown's future, including the ticking 75-day due diligence clock on the Sewer Authority land sale, a revised vision for Liberty Centre in Newtown Borough, and the YMCA's uncertain future following the sale of Chandler Hall. Also featured are highlights from the September 23 Board of Supervisors meeting, residents' efforts to improve pedestrian, bicycle, and wheelchair safety, and disagreements among supervisors over shared funding for fire services and opioid settlement programs. From controversial land deals to public safety and local government disputes, these are issues every Newtown resident should know about!
“Our founders wanted us to know what our government represen-tatives are doing. They knew that a healthy press is essential to a healthy democracy—and it’s worked for almost 250 years.” – Bucks County Herald. Also important, IMHO, is for elected government representatives – past and present - to keep citizens they represent well informed.
