The Independence Township Board of Trustees signed a statement in support of the new senior/adult activity center. Citizens for Seniors representatives presented the statement to the board at its Oct. 17 regular meeting. According to the statement:
‘The members of the Independence Township Board recognize that it has been a long standing goal of our community to replace our obsolete Senior Center. Because of this critical and urgent need, we fully endorse and support the current ballot proposals calling for both a construction bond to build a new facility and an operating millage sufficient to operate the new center and its programs ? we hope all the citizens of Independence Township will rally to support this critical effort and vote for the Senior Center proposals.?
Signed are Wagner, Clerk Shelagh Vanderveen, Treasurer Jim Wenger, and Trustees Larry Rosso, Dan Travis, Dan Kelly, and Charles Dunn.
