I have been a resident of Newtown Township since 1995 and a Newtown Supervisor from October 2017 though December 2025 (8 years). 2026 marks the close of my time serving as a Supervisor, and I want to use this moment to express my deep gratitude to the residents of this community. It has truly been an honor to serve you, to be your voice on as a Supervisor, and to work every day with the belief that local government functions best when it is transparent, accountable, and open to the people it represents.

As I step away from the dais, I’m not stepping away from Newtown. I will continue to support transparency, good governance, and resident involvement in every way I can. My hope is that the work we do together continues to strengthen the connection between the governing Board and the public it serves.

5 Surprising Realities of Engineering the Newtown Creek Bridge

The snap of a bicycle tire over composite decking can hide a whole world of permitting, physics, and environmental constraints.

To the casual traveler, a pedestrian bridge is a minor convenience, yet the "Newtown Creek Bridge Bid Plans" reveal a much denser reality behind that simplicity. It takes a staggering 23-sheet technical blueprint—ranging from the Topographic Survey to four separate Landscape Sheets—just to span this modest stretch of water.

This isn't just a path; it is a meticulously calculated insertion into a delicate ecosystem and a complex legal landscape. These plans represent a hard-fought truce between civil engineering requirements and the unyielding forces of nature. Behind the "simple" crossing lies a world of high-stakes logistics and invisible math.

“Our founders wanted us to know what our government represen-tatives are doing. They knew that a healthy press is essential to a healthy democracy—and it’s worked for almost 250 years.” – Bucks County Herald. Also important, IMHO, is for elected government representatives to keep citizens they represent well informed.
