Texas Township Still Divided

Over the past few years, Texas Township was divided between Supervisor Dave Healy and the other six members of the township board.  In the August primary, voters delivered a mixed verdict, voting out Healy and three of the board members critical of him.

It seems that the rift has not healed now that the new board has taken office.
