South Strabane Township Welcomes New Members

January 3, 2024 4:53 am

South Strabane Township reorganized their board of supervisors Tuesday night by welcoming two new supervisors. Jeff Bull and George Rowand will take over for Bracken Burns and Richard Luketich. Both men are looking to bring back what they describe as “fiscal responsibility“ to the township. Both men say that voters constantly complained of high taxes and the increasing unaffordability to live in South Strabane. Bull went right to work asking that nominations for zoning officers be tabled because last year, $250,000 was spent on code enforcement. He says that is too much for a township the size of South Strabane. Bob Weber was named chairman of the board by a 3-2 vote over Jeff Bull. Supervisors moved meeting times to the fourth Tuesday of the month at 6 PM instead of the current 7 PM start time.
