Ken Short to host communication discussion Dec. 12.

While township officials have discussed and strategized ways to be more effective in communicating with each other during any natural disasters in the future, Mayor Ken Short is now asking for residents to weigh in.

An area of major concern from the residents after Hurricane Sandy was communication, and Short will host a meeting to receive feedback on how to best provide strong communication avenues to the public.

Short is asking for volunteers to review the township's communication efforts throughout the weeks following the storm.
