As Union Township Trustee I would work toward better communication. many of our township residents are vey uninformed or misinformed regarding issues directly affecting their tax dollars, local development, and exploration of new development. Township information should be available online with the creation of a website, and newsletter. The local newspaper should also be informed of pertinent township business. The residents need to have knowledge of township challenges and decisions.
