The Independence Township Planning Commission has a new face on the panel ? well, not exactly that new.
At the Feb. 1 regular meeting, the Independence Township Board of Trustees unanimously appointed former township clerk Joan McCrary to the commission.
Supervisor Dave Wagner surprised the board during the meeting by broaching the topic without any information in the board packets. Wagner informed the board they really wouldn’t need anything after they heard his recommendation.
Joan McCrary has served Independence Township in many different capacities over the years. She retired this past fall as township clerk after 15 years of service.
