Reason Nominated:

Dianne has served Washington Township as the Clerk/Administrator for a long time, and she has competently and fairly administered her duties in service to the residents of the community. Dianne's commitment to the residents is truly admirable, and unsurpassed, whether it is in the delivery of affordable housing for those residents requiring safe and decent housing, her coordination of public development projects such as the new municipal park, or rehabilitation of the Township's municipal building on Schooley's Mountain Road, which is an historic school that is being updated to serve the needs of a growing population. Dianne's commitment to preserving community character and ensuring that the residents quality of life is protected is evident in everything she does, and I commend her for your consideration for Clerk of the year.
