I was telling a constituent today about what could be considered in the vernacular "the dog and pony" show of the reorganization meeting last night.  I told her that the first thing that I did after being sworn in was nominated a set of people that I believe would be better for our town to the office of President and Vice President of Council.  She was surprised because the current President has been around so long that she didn't know the position was open to any type of change.

If you want more information on how local governments are suppose to work in PA, including our borough, you can download a citizens guide at https://www.dropbox.com/s/zlpc42cyrjnc2sv/Citizens_Guide_2010.pdf?dl=0

 I went to the planning commission meeting tonight to meet the commissioners and try to get an idea about how this process is working in our borough.  There are many challenges, but I have enough to learn by concentrating on what I need for borough governance.
