Accomplishments

 

Since I first became Mayor in 2019, Morris Township has made tremendous advancements in our communication to residents, investment in local infrastructure, bringing great new companies to our town, and creating citizen advisory committees to help us envision the future and bring new ideas.


Morris Township has been excelling for the past five years on many fronts thanks to a great town council, great leadership at town hall, and dedicated volunteers helping us to improve our community.
