Daily Local: West Goshen goes from Three to Five Supervisors

New supervisors Phil Corvo, Ted Murphy and Ray Halvorsen are sworn in Tuesday.

The Board of Supervisors swore in three members Tuesday evening duing the township's annual reorganizational meeting, the Reports.

According to the Daily Local, the new members include Democrat Phl Corvo and Republicans Ted Murphy and Ray Halvorsen.  Those three join return supervisors Patricia McIlvaine and Bob White on a board that expanded from three members to five.

"We will start in high gear," Halvorsen told the Daily Local. "I hope the board will work to together and make positive changes for this township."

Both Corvo and Halvorsen are serving six-year terms, while Murphy was elected to an open four-year term, replacing Ed Meakim, who left the board at the end of 2011 after nearly two decades of service to the township, the Daily Local reports.
