First of all, many thanks to my constituents.  I’m privileged to represent Ward Five for the next four years.  I appreciate your support and I was humbled by the kind words said to me while I worked the polls.

If you need anything, or if you have any comments or questions, please give me a call or stop by!

Sincerely,

Rich

Don’t forget to get out and vote on Tuesday – it’s your civic duty!

I’ll see everyone at the polls!

Many thanks to all of the Ward Five voters who came out to vote!  It was a beautiful, sunny day and I was quite pleased with the outcome of the primary election.

Thanks for all of the votes!  Yes, I was unopposed, but the kind residents of W5 gave me more votes than any other borough council candidate received in their wards.  That’s truly humbling!

I’m proud to represent W5 and I’ll look forward to being on the ballot in November.

I was elected in 2005 to serve the residents of Ward Five.  Since that time, I have worked to keep taxes low, including a 37.5% reduction in property taxes last year.  Grove City Borough has not raised property taxes in 28 years!  We have also kept utility rates the lowest in the area by making strategic buying decisions and investing in our infrastructure.

I’ve also worked with the Fixed-Base Operators to turn the Grove City Regional Airport into a thriving operation.  Our hangar capacity has doubled, the skydiving operations are extremely busy, and we attracted STATMedevac to set up a base in order to provide quick air ambulance support for the region.

We formed the Technology Committee to create the borough’s first Web site, www.grovecityonline.com.  Residents and visitors are now able to find out many aspects about the borough, as well as perform several essential services.  We modernized many aspects of the borough’s computing systems, as well.

I represented the borough in the fight against Tri-County Industries’ trash mountain.  I have teamed up with citizens, businesses, and political leaders from the region to keep this safety and environmental nightmare from coming to fruition.

With your support, I’m looking forward to how far we can go in the coming years!  Join me in making Grove City even better!

Sincerely,

Rich Talbert
