July 26, 2023 4:52 am

The Board of Supervisor’s for South Strabane Township have appointed Jordan Cramer as the interim Township Manager. It adds to the already full plate for Cramer, who is the fire chief and took over some of the assistant township manager in April for Jim Sutter who accepted a role at Peters Township.  He’s handled the information technology, the township website and outreach to residents. He replaces the outgoing Brandon Stanick, who accepted a job as an assistant township manager and planning administrator for Findley Township in Allegheny County.  His final meeting as township manager had some vocal detractors about his work with South Strabane residents in the public comment phase of the meeting. At one point a brief executive session was held due to some of the words from disgruntled residents. The meeting would continue as scheduled, with Stanick receiving a plaque from Bob Weber and kind words from the board members. He’s thankful for his time as manager in the township. Chairman of the Board, Bracken Burns says Cramer will be the point of contact for staff and residents in case there are issues. The motion to appoint South Strabane’s next Township Manager was tabled. Burns said they are close to naming the winning candidate and are in the final process of the selection.
