Dennis
has lived almost his entire life in Swanton Township and has served
one 4-yr term previously as your Trustee. He managed a manufacturing
plant in Delta, consisting of 30 employees, for 10 years before
going into business for himself as a water well driller and septic
systems installer in 1995. He understands how important water is
and this prompted him to become politically active when Swanton
Township’s water supply was threatened by quarrying operations.
His work history has taught him how to work well with people and
his being in the construction trade will enable him to understand
what issues our road workers face on a daily basis. Dennis feels
that Swanton Township is a jewel that needs to be protected. Inevitably,
city water agreements will need to be made. He wants to make sure
that all options are considered & the best possible deal is
negotiated for the residents. He will make sure that Swanton Township
receives as much State Issue 1 grant dollars as possible to help
upgrade & maintain our road and drainage systems. Our township
has taken good advantage of this program in the past and he will
make sure it continues. .
