VIDEO: A Township's Thanks to Mal Plager

Since 1992, Mal Plager has taken a seat at the Township Committee meetings, but when he did so at the committee's Dec. 8 meeting, it was for the last time.

Plager is stepping down from the committee at the end of the month, so Mayor Gary DiNardo delivered a township expression of appreciation for his years of service. Mayor DiNardo noted Plager's crucial role through the years behind the township's open space purchases, emergency management systems, and his ongoing role as an administrator with the American Red Cross.
