The election ballot for this November is promising to be a very busy ballot, indeed. In addition to the regular elections for a township trustee, the township fiscal officer, two school board members, and four members of city counsel, there is expected to be several other issues including:
· a citizen petition initiative to place a 1.5 mil fire levy on the city and township ballot,
· a merger proposal,
· the unexpired term of a city counsel seat,
· several county-wide levies,
In addition there is potential for a capital levy and an operating levy for the fire department.
As we get closer to November, I will talk about each of the election decisions that will affect our local community, including the township's role and my personal perspective.
