He stated that the township's roads need a lot of work and township workers have been fired for associating with the wrong people. Spinola said that planning is his main concern. We are growing too quickly to just address the problems as they come along. We must be proactive. Spinola said that commercial development is another major concern for the township.
Commercial development is critical to diversifying our tax base and reducing our property taxes.
Spinola also said that one of his first goals as supervisor would be to form a task force to study the Route 209 corridor through the West End. We are working with Polk, Ross, and Eldred on regional open space planning and we should extend that collaboration to the Route 209 issue.
