In its annual reorganization meeting on Jan. 4, the Chadds
Ford Township Board of Supervisors voted Deborah Love to be chairman and George
Thorpe to be vice chairman. The roles had been reversed for the last several
years.
One new change for the board will be an extra meeting, or
workshop, per month. The board will be experimenting with a workshop on the
Monday before the regular meeting that remains scheduled for the first
Wednesday of the month.
Thorpe said the workshops would be open to the public. The
board will discuss issues and agenda items, but there will be no voting. He
said after the meeting that the board wants to make sure the board is in
compliance with the state’s Sunshine Act. Litigation, real estate and personnel
matters would still be discussed in executive session.
Love said having the workshop sessions would help streamline
the main meetings. She said the workshops would give the supervisors a chance
to hear what the others are working on without taking time from the public
during the regular meetings.
During the reorganization meeting, recently elected and
appointed officials were sworn into their roles. Judge Richard Cappelli
administered the oaths of office.
