Bruce Irvine, Esq., Charmster

Newtown Square politcal gadfly Regi Siberski, a stickler for good, responsive government, recently forwarded this question from an unidentified resident to township officials.
The recent report in September 22, 2010 County Press mentioned
a successful golf outing at the Edgmont County Club to benefit of the
planned Veteran's Memorial on West Chester Pike. The list of donors
supporting the event included Newtown Township and Newtown Township
Police Department.

Can a municipality or its Department of Police be a major
sponsor to any cause and donate tax dollars to support an event without
prior public permission from the full governing body?

Here is township solicitor Bruce Irvine's reply:
regi..again get a life....it was a 100$ hole sposor for a charitible
cause...stop it.....

sposor? charitible? 100$?

Note the charm, the respect for local taxpayers, the spelling! Township solicitor. Nice work if you can get it.
