July 13, 2020 Exeter Township Board of Supervisors Meeting

My Opinions:
​The Speece/Cusatis board is still unable to resolve key issues or significant work completed. The Food and Beverage/Banquet business which has contributed $250,000 a year at one time continues to remain closed. The wasted spending is too numerous to mention here. The lack of courtesy extended to a public they no longer need since they are sitting on 3 to 6 year terms. But remember their behavior next election! A law firm that supports their behavior and sucks if not millions, hundreds of thousands of dollars of tax payer money. It doesn't have to be this way!  Click on "READ MORE"
