Dear Neighbors,

 

A reminder: PLEASE SEND YOUR QUESTIONS FOR THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON , OCTOBER 24 by replying to this e-mail. Your questions will be forwarded to the neighborhood sub-committee. Once we receive the responses by the candidates, we will post the answers for everyone to read. The election is Tuesday, November 6th.  

Thank you!

 

Please see below two letters/statements from candidates. The one from Mr. Siegel was sent previously to some of you but not all so I am including it again. If their statements prompt any questions from you, send them to me and I will get them to the committee.

Thanks, Carol Pfister

 

Mr. Booth’s statement:

Dear Linda:

 

I will be happy to be involved in an internet discussion of issues regarding Lower Gwynedd Township.

 

Having been a long time resident and property owner and watching Lower Gwynedd grow from a sleepy little community in the "60s to a highly progressive, rapidly developing, but perhaps over crowded  residential area today, there are many challenges to be faced as a supervisor to maintain the quality of life we enjoy here now.

 

My experience as a member and chairman of the LGT Municipal Authority, a volunteer position, plus having maintained a dental practice for many years in LGT gives me a significant and wise perspective regarding growth and development in the township. 

 

I am very equipped to manage the issues of the day with insight and fairness and look forward to serving as supervisor in the coming term.

 

I look forward to meeting you as well as any members of the community wishing to discuss matters regarding our great township.

 

Best regards,

 

Dr. J. Richard Booth 

 

 

Mr. Siegel’s statement:

Dear Friends of Gwynedd Knoll:

 

On November 6th, you have an opportunity to improve and foster a more open and transparent dialogue with the Board of Supervisors in our Township.  I am seeking a Supervisor role to effect positive improvement on the type of communication you have with your elected leadership, offer a more engaged model of governance, and seek active input from members of the community to understand what is important to the constituency and how you prioritize such items.  This is not a Democratic or Republican issue.  Rather it is a straightforward issue.  If you are not pleased with the leadership today, the responsiveness of the existing administration, and the lack of tools used to inform, educate, and engage each of you, then my candidacy is reflective of your beliefs and your needs.

 

I am aware that Gwynedd Knoll residents must deal with traffic challenges but have not yet received any invitation to address the questions or concerns you may have.  I welcome any inquiries collectively or individually.  My contact information appears below.  Please also visit my website at: www.keithsiegel.com
