Winner looks forward to getting to work on Manalapan committee

I want to thank Manalapan residents for having the confidence in me by electing me to the Township Committee. I hope that in the next three years I can repay them for their confidence in me by continuing the work that I and my fellow Planning Board members have started in regard to controlling growth.

I have always felt my role as chairman of the Planning Board was to get everyone on the board to work as a cohesive team. I want to continue this role on the Township Committee and work together with the other committee members, as well as the residents of Manalapan, to make this town a place that we can all be proud of. I urge all residents to get involved in our township activities and local government.

I also want to thank Walt Pytlik for running a campaign that he can be proud of. I have always had respect for Walt, and that respect will always continue.

Although Manalapan has grown over the years, I find that we are still a close-knit community. This is the feeling that has kept my family here over the years, and I hope it is the same feeling that will keep your family here as well.
