Letters to the Editor

Letter: Mark Hines Has Earned My Respect

A resident asks for voters to support the Democratic council candidates and expresses her esteem for open space advocate, and candidate, Mark Hines.

To the editor: I have known Mark Hines and his family for many years. I have pictures of them, even when their children were very young, helping with STEM's Natural Area Care projects, as well as with our special events. Many people don't know Mark has been contributing his time and energy to the well-being of Moorestown in many ways. He has served on the library board and is currently on the board of the Moorestown Improvement Association. I have observed him at town council meetings advocating for transparency in our local government for years. When the current council attempted to use the Open Space Trust Fund for an athletic project, he, with an immense amount of perseverance and effort, initiated MSOS (Moorestown Save Open Space). He …

Video: Democratic Candidates on Best Use of Liquor License Revenue

Besides a Main Street manager, how else could the township use revenue from the sale of liquor licenses? Reinvest it, or save it for a rainy day? Find out what the Democratic candidates think.

We've heard a lot from the candidates for town council over the last few months, from their plans for improving the business climate in town, to how they plan to rein in spending.

However, the Republican slate was unable to agree to Patch's terms.  We asked the Democratic candidates …

First of all, big thanks to the Patch staff for undertaking this initiative to better inform the electorate! A contest to win support of Moorestown residents to lead our township’s government should be about more than just simplistic slogans, campaign balloons, and lawns signs. You would expect that any candidate who wants to serve Moorestown residents would look forward to any opportunity to …   more ›

Going back over the audio isn't that good. The effort was there. We didn't hear any audio issues with the republican candidates forum they had last month. I'm sure in future events the audio will sharpen. Will see you at candlelight night.   more ›
