To the Editor:

Responsive local government does not happen by chance.

Twelve years of municipal experience and a deep understanding of local laws and regulations, combined with integrity, trust, respectful leadership, bipartisan cooperation and support, and a strong commitment to community are all key attributes of Tori Morgan that enable her to best serve as a South Whitehall Township commissioner.

After living in Upper Bucks County for 50 years, I moved to South Whitehall Township two years ago.

I quickly realized the township’s “quality of life” is highly desirable.

It is very apparent that Tori, along with the other commissioners and staff, work hard to continuously improve this township - developing recreation facilities and creating community events, having a fiscally responsible budget, providing ongoing support of police and fire initiatives, and promoting local businesses - just to name a few.

On the often-contentious issue of township development and growth, Tori looks to encourage open dialogue and compromise among the parties involved and she attempts to make thoughtful, balanced decisions to avoid lengthy and costly lawsuits.

She is committed to fighting for issues that are important to South Whitehall Township residents, and collaboratively building a bright future.

I encourage voters to re-elect Tori Morgan for South Whitehall Township commissioner.
