neighborhood candidate questionnaire

As promised, below is the letter requesting your questions for our candidates for Supervisor of LG. Hope you can participate in this new and exciting way to use our email tool.

Thanks, Carol Pfister

 

 

Dear Neighbors,

 

The members of the Traffic Committee have solicited the candidates for Supervisor of Lower Gwynedd Township to participate in an e-mail question and answer using our neighborhood e-mail system. We thought it might be a good way to get to know who these individuals are and have them respond to questions that are pertinent to our neighborhood. All three candidates (Siegel, Behr and Brooks) have indicated a willingness to participate.

 

We have made a concerted effort this past week to add a significant number of residents to our e-mail system so that we all have a chance to question these candidates and read their responses.

 

If you have a question(s), please reply to this e-mail and Carol Pfister, our e-mail coordinator, will forward the questions to the Committee. We will go through all the questions, eliminate the redundant ones and select questions that reflect the wide-range of issues that face our neighborhood. Once we receive the responses by the candidates, we will post the answers for everyone to read. If there are follow up questions, we will gladly send them to the candidates and coordinate the responses back to you all. Please send in your questions by Wednesday night, Oct 24.

 

If this Internet approach to getting to know the local candidates works for us, we will continue to use this format in future elections. We know of no other way for residents to have the opportunity to directly ask questions of the candidates at this time. Never let it be said that Gwynedd Knoll is not cutting edge!

 

We ask that in formulating your questions you consider all kinds of issues in addition to the obvious ones about traffic and the Rt. 202 Parkway. We are the largest neighborhood in Lower Gwynedd Township with almost 200 single family homes. This is not a major election year so an informed block of voters can have a significant affect on the outcome of the local election. We have the chance to affirm the status quo or opt for change. Your informed decision just may make the difference.

 

If anyone has any questions, please feel free to contact Linda Callegari at (215) 699-8472 in the evening.
