Four Of Five Union Township Supervisors Resign

UNION TOWNSHIP, Pa. — (WPXI) – The parking lot at the Union Township building is empty, and concerns are mounting in the small community. Four of five Union Township supervisors recently resigned, in addition to the township’s certified public accountant and solicitor. Right now, only one supervisor is left to serve the township. It is unclear why leadership has abandoned their positions. In his resignation letter, former supervisor Michael Barna painted an ugly picture of what may have unfolded at township meetings and on social media. He wrote, “I am uncomfortable and saddened by much of what has been brought to light. I have witnessed public harassing and intimidating behavior.” He went on to say, “There have been sensitive materials shared on social media. Materials that were shared on social media were posted with harmful intent. There have been heinous comments and false accusations made in meetings, and on social media, that go against my personal beliefs and morals.” At this point, it’s unclear exactly what Barna was referring to.
