Perhaps the single greatest reason I am running for Council is that the Residents should guide the direction of Murrysville's future. Council's role is to utilize their experience and skills to meet the Resident's vision. Unfortunately, the majority of our current Council members do not understood their responsibility. Instead, they are ensuring that we end up with urban sprawl that will turn Murrysville into a smaller version of Monroeville. Further, they have squandered an opportunity to provide Murrysville with an outstanding source of tax revenue by approving a highly inappropriate development at the former Buncher Property.

Continued claims by numerous residents of the ethical lapses and conflicts of interest by several members of Council have also eroded the faith placed in our current Council. These concerns have not abated and can only be addressed by electing qualified candidates. You have a chance on May 19th to have your voice heard and your vision of Murrysville respected.

More than ever, it's critical that we change the direction of Council and begin forging a different path than the one we are on. If you believe that we need change in council, voting for me during the May 19th primary will help redirect our current path. Again, I look forward to hearing your opinions and comments.

I am running for a seat on Murrysville Council and am excited at the prospect of helping to steer the community towards a bright, verdant future.

Murrysville's future will hopefully include many of the strengths that have historically made it a great community; such as its rural heritage, active community, strong school system, responsive government, and its pleasant, small-town atmosphere. I plan to work towards preserving these unique and positive characteristics.

Unfortunately, the actions of Council over the past few years have concerned me, as they have concerned many within the community. I feel these actions have disenfranchised many citizens and have, at times, allowed the desires of developers to override the concerns and best interests of local citizens as well as the vision set forth in the Comprehensive Plan.

I hope to offer the people of Murrysville a clear impartial voice as a member of Council. Let's work together to keep Murrysville a vibrant community; a great place to live, work, play, and raise our children.

Meet Ron Summerhill

Throughout my lifetime I have seen Murrysville grow, both as a prosperous economic community, as well as a place of residence desired by those seeking a rural refuge from the common suburban community.

I share the same hopes as many of you; that Murrysville continues to endear these equities and be a viable well balanced community reflective of its roots, and a place where our children and others' children will desire to live.

By electing me to Murrysville Council I can assure you that these same principals will drive my decisions, and that my only personal interest will be to see that those things that have made our community great are preserved for future generations to enjoy. I will endeavor to see that Murrysville remains a healthy, well balanced community for generations to come. Click here for more information...


Meet Joan Kearns

KEARNS
Murrysville

COUNCIL

 
As a veteran of Murrysville Council, Joan Kearns said she has the perspective to understand the growth in the community.

"The town has to grow or it dies," Kearns said.

Kearns, is seeking re-election after winning a two-year term in 2007. As someone who was on council when the municipality approved its comprehensive plan in 2002 and business overlay ordinance last year, she has a wider understanding of growth in the community, she said.

"I'm the only one left who went through all of that."

Kearns said she was disappointed officials rebuffed the hundreds of residents who signed petitions against the overlay ordinance.

"Those 840 people are electors," she said.

To maintain a quality community, Kearns said, officials will have tough decisions to make about taxes and the budget over the next four years. She said a tax increase could be needed to keep up with the needs of the town.

"We can't run a first-class community on a second class budget."
