Upper Dublin Township - An Opportunity to Reduce Waste!

I see the role of commissioner as two-fold: One, to point Upper Dublin toward the future, and two, to solve constituents’ problems/issues and work with constituents to improve our community. Working together we have accomplished many things for the betterment of our community.

Working Together!

Hi All,

Today I am officially announcing that I am running for re-election as your Ward 3 Commissioner in 2019.

It has been a privilege to serve as your Commissioner and I value your support.

Working together we have accomplished a great deal! When issues are raised we work together to solve them. Together we improved the safety of our children going to school by placing a crossing guard at Derry & Kenmare, starting the School Zone lights earlier at 7:45 am to accommodate early school activities at Jarrettown Elementary School, and the sidewalk construction from the Dreshertown Plaza to Jarrettown Elementary School will begin in 2020. Working together with residents of Willow Manor, a streetlight was added to the entrance to Willet Park to improve the safety for the community. The following issues have also been addressed by working together for the betterment of our community: improving the fiscal condition of Upper Dublin and returning the Ft. Washington Office Center to viability, improving traffic conditions on Welsh Rd., North Hills Ave., and Fitzwatertown Rd., and addressing the quality of our drinking water.

To see what we have accomplished together please visit:

I see the role of commissioner as two-fold: one, to point Upper Dublin toward the best future, and two, to solve constituents’ problems/issues. I have actively encouraged suggestions from you to improve our quality of life in Upper Dublin.

While serving as your Commissioner, party politics have never been an issue - only doing the best job I can for our community, working to find the best solutions for today's challenges and the challenges of the future.

Thank you for your support to re-elect me to the Upper Dublin Board of Commissioners for Ward 3 in the May 21th Primary and the General Election on November 5th 2019. I look forward to continuing to serve you.
