Letter: Leff says thank you to Kennett
To The Editor,
To the Residents of Kennett Township:
I’d like to thank the residents of Kennett Township for electing me to the Board of Supervisors.

I’ve known and worked with both Richard Leff and Jim Przywitowski for several years. I have been asked by various residents whether I will endorse either for election on November 5th as Supervisor of Kennett Township. It is now time to publicly declare my choice: I support Richard Leff.
Here’s my main reason why. Since becoming involved in township affairs I’ve been amazed...
Letter: Experience doesn’t tell whole story in Kennett

Letter: Leff needed in Kennett for real change
To The Editor,
I just wrote a very big check for KCSD school taxes, up yet again from last year. It is indeed a privilege to live in bucolic Kennett Township, and good schools are important, but the resulting taxes are becoming prohibitively expensive for many of us.
A major part of this problem is the current haphazard approach to development in our township. For every new house built, two...
Letter: Kennett Twp. holds too large a surplus
To The Editor,
The financial management of Kennett Township funds is in disarray. With an operating budget of approximately $3 million/year, the current Board of Supervisors has accumulated a massive General Fund of $9 million dollars. Kennett Township also continues to receive 0.25% Earned Income Tax (EIT) for open space, only a very small fraction of which has been used, and now totals another...
