Week #13 - ResultsQ12. We saw from last week's survey responses that both short term and long term suggestions for improving open government in Forks included a "citizens advisory committee." This is a great idea. We also saw that one individual suggested a "resident observer in meetings with developers." Another great idea for sure. Not on the list of things to select from however, was televised public meetings. This was an oversight. So what do you think... Should Forks Township meetings be televised?
Q13. The Township is growing. Open fields are sprouting houses and offices and businesses. The CVS proposal and the developer of the business park are hoping to put in a drug store, a drive-thru fast food
restaurant and possibly a food store or strip mall near the Uhler Rd and Sullivan Trail intersection. To think about too are the proposed new interchange on Rt. 33 at Tatamy and RACINO, the proposed horse track/slot parlor in Palmer Township on the other side of Tatamy.

Question 4, about Managers not being Forks' residents is no longer a correct statement. At the October 20, 2005 Board of Supervisors Meeting, Gary Sandt was appointed Director of the Department of Public Works! He is a long time Forks resident. Heck, he was born and raised here.
He survived the probationary period and prevailed. Congratulations to you, Gary Sandt!
One of Week 13's survey respondents correctly pointed out that the question was very hard to understand. It was a badly designed and for that FAC apologizes. We will try to do better!
