On Nov. 5, voters in Chadds Ford Township will choose a new supervisor. I am writing to voice my support for Frank Murphy’s candidacy.
I first came to know Frank when he moved to the township with his wife and daughters and I proudly supported his candidacies for school board director. As the father of five, I pay close attention to school issues and I was always impressed with Frank’s intelligence, insightfulness and demeanor while on the School Board. Frank came on the board during a difficult and contentious time, but he guided the district through a controversial building project (bringing it in ahead of schedule and under budget) and through a difficult labor negotiation.
On a personal level, I have come to respect Frank as a man of integrity and honesty who views his role in the public service as giving back to the community.
Challenging times lie ahead for our township. The wave of development that has been steadily moving from east to west in Delaware County has arrived at the doorstep or our great town. We need a supervisor who is leveled-headed and understands what makes Chadds Ford a great place to live. We need a supervisor who can listen to resident concerns and make sure that any growth is “smart growth.” Frank’s unique educational background in both law and engineering, coupled with his people skills and sense of community, make him the ideal candidate for what this beautiful township needs right now.
