Law, Long on races

From David Law and Robert Long, Commerce Township trustees:

The next four years are critical for Commerce Township, so please carefully consider who you vote for in the Commerce trustee election. As current members (of the Board of Trustees), we do not believe in raising taxes without a vote of the people (since) residents already pay more than enough.

The township must provide quality services, such as public safety and parks, even in the face of less revenue due to declining property taxes. The township is saddled with an $80 million debt for the (Downtown Development Authority) project and it must be paid off timely. That is why we ask for your trustee vote, as well as ask you to vote for two other independent-minded candidates — Rick Sovel and Bob Berkheiser.

Please consider Sovel, Berkheiser, Law and Long for your Commerce Township trustees. Together, the Board of Trustees will protect taxpayers and control spending.

I attempted to research the candidates by reading the League of Women voters online guide….trustees Long, Sovel and Law answered their questions, as did Bob Berkheiser. I will not vote for someone who doesn’t take the league’s questionaire seriously, so the above 4 gentlemen will get my vote. Plus, I have heard from friends that live near Mr. Pace, that he is crowing about being Tom Zoner’s hand picked trustee candidate. The last thing we need in Commerce is a “yes man” for Zoner. He has allowed the township to become tens of millions in debt with the DDA and he tried to push a water tower being built right in my neighborhood. Only until our neighborhood came out and protested at a board meeting did Zoner and the part time clerk relent and agree to find a new location. DO NOT VOTE FOR ZONER’S LAP DOG in Peter Pace.
