Robert D. Ayers beat out Ray Rodgers and James Burket in the Republican candidate race for six-year-term Snyder Township supervisor.
\n\u201cI\u2019m really happy that I made it through,\u201d said Ayers. \u201cI want to thank all the people that supported me in this.\u201d
\nHe added, \u201cI\u2019d like everyone to know that I\u2019ll listen to anybody. I think that\u2019s something a supervisor should do.\u201d
\nAyers began working with the people of Snyder Township in April of 2004 when he took on the role of code enforcement officer.
\nFor the last year, Ayers has also served on the Snyder Township planning commission.
\nAyers told The Daily Herald this morning that one of his goals is to focus on completing the township\u2019s comprehensive plan by the end of the year.
\nRepublican James L. Miller received more votes than Bernard Sherwin to make him the Republican candidate in the race for two-year-term supervisor.
\nMiller will face Democrat Warren (Buddy) Daughenbaugh, Jr., in November.
\nMiller told The Daily Herald this morning that he wants to thank everyone for \u201cshowing the kind of confidence in me to vote the way they did.\u201d
\nHe added, \u201cI think we\u2019ll have a great team going into the next couple of years and accomplish great things.\u201d
\nIn November of 2004, after the death of Jim Daughenbaugh, Snyder Township supervisor for many years, Miller was appointed by the two remaining supervisors to serve for the first year of the three years remaining on Daughenbaugh\u2019s term.
\nAt the January reorganization meeting, Miller was named vice-chairman of the board of supervisors and was also appointed Road Master.
\nAlso, Republican Gail E. Burket was voted through as the four-year-term candidate for tax collector.
\nShe was born and raised in Snyder Township. She and her husband, James, have a family business, Burket\u2019s Auto Repair, located in the township. Together, they have a daughter, Nichole, and two sons, Justin and Drew.
\nIn 2003, she worked for Nancy Kilmartin, Snyder Township tax collector, helping with taxes and office duties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
