Update from Senate District 10
Lower Makefield Township Ballot Referendum
|
Sen. Santarsiero with Rep. Perry Warren and Jim McCaffrey explaining the process required
for the ballet referendum in Lower Makefield Township. |
I was joined by state Representative Perry Warren (D-31) and Jim McCaffrey, of McCaffrey's Food Markets, at Delorenzo's Tomato Pies in Yardley for a press conference on the referendum that is expected to be on the ballot during the next election in Lower Makefield Township, which would give residents the opportunity to vote to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages in LMT. Currently, LMT is the only municipality in Bucks County that operates as a dry municipality.
This is about giving the people of Lower Makefield a choice. Whether the referendum passes or not, that decision should be made by the residents. That’s what this referendum is all about.
To view the full press conference, visit my district newsroom. You can also visit www.YourTownYourChoice.com for more information.

Congratulations to Bucks County Community College (BCCC) on the award of a $200,000 grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development for the creation of an awareness campaign aimed at increasing recruitment levels for all BCCC Manufacturing Pre-Apprenticeship Training Programs. The funding was awarded by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED)’s Manufacturing PA Training-to-Career Grant program, and supports projects that train a skilled workforce to compete in a global economy, as well as advancing the field of manufacturing.
We are very fortunate to have such an excellent community college here in Bucks County. The education and training the college provides is of the highest quality, and this grant funding will allow even more opportunity for our students.
