What started off as a great evening for the Bonner Prendie & Upper Darby community is unfortunately being overshadowed by the actions of certain individuals. I want to thank the Upper Darby Police Department for their swift action last night in identifying the problem and ensuring the safety of all those present.

Although the night ended in a chaotic matter, I want to thank the administrations of both Bonner Prendie & Upper Darby who helped organize the event and focus on the great community environment it was prior to the end.

I was very excited to return to my grade school, St. Bernadette’s, to give the opening remarks for their Annual Walk-A-Thon today.

Thank you so much for having me and to all those who help make this such a special event each year! You can’t hide that Bernie’s pride!

Don't forget, tomorrow is Election Day! Please see information for polling locations in the 3rd District below. Please note that polling locations for precincts 3-6 & 3-10 have changed.

There are two community reminders from the Township this week!

1. TRASH HOLIDAY: Next Tuesday, May 17th is a Township Holiday and trash will not be collected. If you have Tuesday trash and Wednesday recycling, next week you'll have both picked up Wednesday. If you have Friday trash and Wednesday recycling, next week both will be picked up Friday. All other pickups stay the same.

2. TAX DEADLINE: The deadline to pay your 2022 Township Real Estate Tax and/or the 2022 Sewer and Trash fees is approaching on May 31st. You must pay your bill by this date to avoid the 10% penalty.

Please see a message from Upper Darby Township regarding the upcoming Winter storm.

A winter storm warning has been issued for Upper Darby. Snow is predicted throughout the day, however the worst of the storm will not hit the area until this evening with snow beginning to accumulate around 7pm and continue until Saturday morning totaling between 5-7 inches. We are continuing to monitor the situation as the storm progresses.

The streets were brined yesterday in preparation and there are more than 20 plow trucks with salt spreaders ready. We are fully stocked with salt and plan to have trucks out during the entire snow event. Please stay off the road ways and avoid all non-essential travel during the snowstorm, so that our salt trucks, snow plows, and first responders can move freely and keep everyone safe.

I had the honor of being sworn in as Councilman for Upper Darby’s 3rd District last night.

We are excited to have her law enforcement perspective on Council as our Township deals with a rise in violent crime especially.
