east whiteland wants to hire ceisler media?

Color me fascinated.

There is something rather interesting at the bitter end of the agenda for the Wednesday supervisors meeting. Apparently East Whiteland wants to hire a PR firm?

Are you OK with your tax dollars being spent like that? Apparently they must have image issues and could it possibly be the data center and other poor decisions? And they wish to hire a politically obvious firm called Ceisler Media? Can we wonder if they’re going to use a PR firm to be obnoxious towards residents’ opinions they might not agree with? I asked that question because that’s what Lower Merion Township did years ago. Why don’t they have a public information officer like a lot of municipalities have?

Screenshot

It’s a very interesting turn of events and I guess add up that and all the lawyers they currently have employed and makes you wonder, doesn’t it?

When you Google about Ceisler what comes up first? “The firm is widely known for creativity, deep political and media relationships.” ding ding ding. Political operators/damage control. This PR shop has a municipal services arm correct?

Will hiring a PR firm, for example make up for the fact that they don’t have a zoning officer or have a problematic assistant township manager?

Will hiring a PR firm make up for the stupidity and ignorance towards residents that seems to dribble constantly from Supervisor Peter Fixler’s lips? I know from Great Valley Democrat meetings past he did what? Showed up with wifey to sing the politician blues and tries to blame me among others for his lack of popularity? (I mean dude, do you WATCH the meeting replays where you are rude or show disdain for residents? I mean did someone make you do those interviews about your work for an environment and nature centric non-profit entity? Did you seriously think no one would ever wonder how you could work for whom you are employed and then be a data center apologist as an elected official?)

Will hiring a PR firm suddenly make the shady dell acres over at Foote Mineral or Bishop Tube butterflies and unicorns?

Why else do I find the timing interesting? Because of the ballot question that residents officially have on the ballot for this November’s elections. That question is and never has been about politics, it is about township growth, better government and adequate representation. Can’t have that right? The people must be compliant sheeple, right?

What this comes down to is control. And neither party nor East Whiteland Township itself wants to lose control, and isn’t that horse out of the proverbial barn? (Not that there are many barns left because of development in East Whiteland, right?) If East Whiteland gets five total supervisors, people stand a good chance for the first time in years for balance and representation in all matters.

And maybe if East Whiteland get two more supervisors, we can clean house on staff that really shouldn’t be there.

Vote for the government you want, not what the political parties are telling you that you should do. Also, you need to ponder the point that perhaps both parties are for data centers.

So I think that also hiring a PR firm that does “strategic communications”, “brand reputation” and things like social media is ever so timely because face it, those three supervisors don’t want two more do they? I mean did not Board Chairman Scott Lambert actually kind of get into that at a recent Great Valley Democrats meeting in the township building? (The walls maybe do have ears?)

And let’s get real. Members of the Great Valley Democrats literally went to community signing events to stop the ballot question from reaching the ballot (former supervisor Bill Holmes and former VP of ChesCo Dems Jerry Pyne). Now they are saying nothing…but in my humble opinion we know that they are most probably still trying to quite literally stop the public from what they have the right and legal choice to want.

The other thing to note again is the Vacancy Board chair in East Whiteland is Jerry Pyne right? So that makes him a tiebreaker in case a supervisor gets incapacitated, and it also gives him the ability to appoint someone, correct? So is it so far-fetched to think that if something happened he might appoint Bill Holmes again if the opportunity arose?

And the East Whiteland Republicans? They actually have circulated a sample ballot telling Republicans to vote no on the East Whiteland ballot question, haven’t they? Great Valley Democrats are merely being their usual passive aggressive selves. Of course in East Whiteland, both political parties are like Pat from Saturday Night Live years ago. They are more of a homogenous lump than people thing with years of deal making and horse trading just to keep the power from the people.

Think I am kidding? Look at former Supervisor Rich Orlow. He was a Republican who was eventually defeated by Scott Lambert. But then when Bill Holmes had to step down because of work (Vanguard) did he not convince Rich Orlow to switch political parties and become an appointed Democrat Supervisor?

So East Whiteland want s PR firm because they have lost control of their own narrative and they did it to themselves. So they will hire a pit-bull PR shop in an attempt to discredit residents, won’t they? East Whiteland never thought residents would rise up against data centers and them. They never thought residents would organize to question everything AND the data center plan. They never thought residents would organize to get two more supervisors.

East Whiteland residents meet yet another shining example of fear based governance. Take this as your indication that you are trying to do the right thing for your community. This is circling the wagons 101.

Show up at the meeting tomorrow. Ask questions politely. Pack the boardroom. Politely demand better government and come November on election day? Say YES to adding two more supervisors and to answer another question yes there are people interested in stepping up and serving. But three supervisors is not working in East Whiteland. At all. Look no further than the data center of it all, or even old hot topics like Bishop Tube.

I will note that the East Whiteland Republican social media pages are all very Pravda on this bus, showing an actual disconnect to the reality of issues locally….Great Valley Democrats are going for merely limp and insipid on theirs….but also not talking about what matters to residents for real. But in my opinion they are still like a homogenous lump that does no one any good, which is again why they don’t want two more supervisors.

There are other things on the agenda for Wednesday in East Whiteland. I do not see the data center on the agenda, but by all means, please show up and express how you feel about that or any other township issue. I will note there is another liquor license transfer.

You can either attend the meeting virtually via Zoom or in person.

Here’s the link to the website of the PR firm- it doesn’t say whom specifically at the firm they are hiring. https://ceislermedia.com/about/

PS Does East Whiteland even realize they have two “official” Facebook pages?

hey west vincent supervisors: you o.k. with residents paying for utter horse sheit?

So as I hinted this morning, in the-let’s-harass-former-female-employees-and-residents of it all in West Vincent there is an update. Mind you I am allowed to have my opinions on what this township is doing and what the elected officials are ALLOWING.

So this happened:

So….West Vincent blinked? I wondered if this was the direction it was headed when I saw on October 1st that the drooling idiots over in West Vincent miraculously realized that they had access to their Instagram account or accounts?

MMMkay, so then this gem this afternoon:

First of all, they are STILL misspelling her name. And she is not jut a former employee, she lives in the township (but I digress.) But what do we expect from Tommy Ryan who posted it?

https://westvincenttwp.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/FP-statement.pdf

Is this the equivalent of a “I did not murder my wife” eulogy at a funeral or something? I mean READ IT.

STATEMENT OF WEST VINCENT TOWNSHIP AS TO THE TOWNSHIP OWNED FACEBOOK PAGE

On August 5, 2025, Christina Casey’s employment with West Vincent Township was terminated.

As is commonly done when employment is separated, the Township immediately worked to close or update Township business accounts that were created by, controlled by, or in the name of Ms. Casey. This included accounts with various State agencies, Amazon, Zoom, and others, including Facebook.

In the weeks to follow Ms. Casey did not assist the Township in its efforts to regain control of the Township’s official Facebook page, even though she remained an Administrator of the Facebook page.

On September 23, 2025, seven weeks after her termination, Ms. Casey retained access to the Township Facebook page and deleted information about a road resurfacing project.

The Township then began its efforts to work with Meta (the owner of Facebook) to remove Ms. Casey as administrator of the Township Facebook page. The Township’s efforts through Meta have been unsuccessful.

In January 2026 Ms. Casey stated she had transferred administrative authorizations to Township staff on two occasions – January 2 and January 15. The Township engaged a third-party IT consultant to review the Township’s email system and all available Facebook settings, and on January 16, 2026, the consultant reported that no evidence of administrative authorizations having been transmitted to the Township was found.

Still unable to access its Facebook page, the Township inquired again of Ms. Casey through her attorney to gain access. In response, on April 29, 2026, counsel for Ms. Casey stated his client had “no further interest to attempt to assist the Township”. Ms. Casey took this position even though she remained the Administrator of the West Vincent Township Facebook page.

With all avenues to access the Facebook page exhausted, the Township sought the help of the court system. On September 3, 2026, the Township filed a Complaint in Equity and a Petition for Preliminary Injunction to ask the court to compel Ms. Casey’s cooperation. In response to the Township’s legal filings, the Township learned for the first time that her role as Administrator was removed on June 30, 2026.

Consequently, because Ms. Casey is no longer an Administrator of the Township Facebook page, she presently can be of no help to the Township, and the Township has now withdrawn its Petition for Preliminary Injunction against Ms. Casey.

The Township’s Facebook page is vitally important to the Township administration in allowing the Township to communicate with its followers to provide needed information about Township events. The Township has started a new Facebook page – WestVincentTownshipPA – and directs the followers of the original Township Facebook page to this new page.

date: October 7, 2026

Can I just say it out loud and not in my head? That West Vincent Manager Tommy Ryan is a freak and an idiot? I have other more pejorative and aptly descriptive curse words I would love to apply, but don’t wish to be rude to my readers.

If Facebook is so “vitally important” he should have learned how to use it while Kristina was still employed, yes?

And point of fact: Kristina did indeed try to assist with turning the page over to someone, hell anyone else in West Vincent, and that manager was TOO DUMB TO FIGURE IT OUT.

I guess there was no mansplaination available or they were out of Facebook For Dummies?

Yes except for real there is a REAL book, and this is latest edition and can be purchased on Amazon.

So basically, Manager Tommy Ryan says he initiated court proceedings because he didn’t know how to use Facebook? And the West Vincent Township Stupidvisors are ok with him doing this to a woman who used to be a employee and is a resident and taxpayer? Ok I can’t hold back…. are you f-cking kidding me right now?

West Vincent is known for the ridiculous, but this is astounding. And also very wrong. West Vincent Supervisors might as well just say they condone harassing their employees and residents.

And here is what I think they should do (but won’t): fire the manager and current solicitor. I do not know how much that solicitor has billed but that manager? $160K a year to harass a woman because of his own lack of knowledge and inability to admit he screwed up?

Here is what I think about the stupidvisors:

Chair Dana Allen: Weak, always looks like she is going to cry but is that because she constantly gets cut off and mansplained to by staff? Whatever the case may be, she is a WOMAN and has as chair allowed this to happen to ANOTHER WOMAN so she should RESIGN.

Vice Chair Bernie Couris: given his health issues which are no joke, he should have left the party quite a while ago. As it stands, he literally looks like he is in a stupor at every meeting. I would say he was an enlightened Democrat but at the end of the day he’s just a typical West Conshy former Republican politician and should also RESIGN. My opinion is he no longer gives a sheit, can’t you agree?

Then there is the new guy. His name is Sean Clark and he says almost nothing and is rumored to have taken a supervisor’s gig because he wants to steppingstone to a higher office which is probably why he doesn’t do much other than take up space, right? Well at least one of his kids is a girl so if he’s ok with a woman being treated by the township where he is an elected official and sworn to take care of his constituents no matter their sex, age, race, or gender then he deserves to be haunted into a very brief political career yes?

Here is the stuff from the docket:

Here is what Kristina had to say this afternoon:

Last word? I want people to let others know if West Vincent’s Fakebook page censors anyone in any way.

And residents need to start going to meetings. None of you should find your hard earned tax dollars being spent on utter bullsheit like this. But then again, this is a township where many of the residents don’t really think they deserve better do they?

Carry on.

vote east whiteland peeps!

My ballot has been received back to Chester County making me an official YES vote for two more supervisors in East Whiteland Township.

Don’t forget the ballot question when you vote, and please vote yes!

radnor township wants to ruin downtown wayne

I’m about to share the verbiage on a petition that the Wayne Business Association is circulating on behalf of Wayne business owners, property owners, and Radnor Township residents. If you are in any of these categories, please contact them to sign.

Radnor Township has done some
screwy things in recent past (like the Radnor commissioners and specifically commissioner Jack Larkin threatening a church in Wayne with them eminent domain over parking, and then attempting eminent domain poorly with Valley Forge Military Academy until one of their lawyers came calling at a meeting) but this takes the cake.

Essentially, they want to Lower Merion downtown Wayne (think Schauffele Plaza attempts every few years)

What does this mean? Essentially, they want to take a significant portion of valuable parking and turn it in to a fakakta pocket park. Do they forget about across Route 30 from this and down further east is a pocket park that no one uses now? And it was a little plot of land that former disgusting commissioner Bill Spingler had Radnor purchase. It was turned into a pocket park that no one uses. Also not the only one they don’t use. I will further note that Radnor now does not sufficiently care for all of the parks they own and for example when there’s a problem with a tree most places, do they try to treat it or keep on top of regular pruning? Or is it they just take the trees down?

I don’t know about you, but I think twice about going to downtown Wayne now just like downtown Ardmore and why?

Simple: parking.

This is not what the businesses nor residents need and this is somebody’s vanity project. I don’t know if it’s that stupid commissioner Cathy Agnew or the collective of them.

It’s not just the space they would lose for parking, it’s also common sense like the circulation in and out of these parking lots they want to mess with. I have to wonder if Septa has any thoughts about this not that they’re particularly intelligent these days.

I will note that when I go through Wayne on the way to Penn Medecine, that all the little North Wayne neighborhoods are packed with cars for the train and shopping already.

This is another bad plan for Radnor and it really needs to be stopped. Residents and businesses need to lawyer up. Someone like Phil Rosenzweig or from his firm. I don’t work for the man, but I do know the man and he works for people, not local governments.

📌 Support of WBA Statement| Signature Appreciated
THIS LETTER IS TO BE SENT TO THE RADNOR TOWNSHIP COMMISSIONERS. IT IS FROM THE WAYNE BUSINESS ASSOCIATION(WBA)

The WBA requests support from the local business community by providing your name and email on this form.


Dear Commissioners,
The WBA is writing to convey (and reiterate) our thoughts regarding the proposed parklet/public space on North Wayne Ave. After a meeting with commissioners to review the proposed plans / Q&A session; attending the public Board of Commissioners meeting; and subsequent review of the draft Wayne BOD Master Plan, we wanted to memorialize our understanding of the direction going forward.

The business owners on North Wayne Ave and the members that have signed the attached support letter are in consensus that the public space should be designed with the flexibility to allow egress to the N Wayne Ave parking lot, and to accommodate parking when the Wayne Commons does not have an event programmed which would require closing off the area to traffic and parking.

As was expressed during public comment, daytime use of this area for ingress/egress and parking is essential to the businesses on North Wayne Ave. and our understanding (after the BOC meeting) is that this will be accommodated in the design. These shop owners have significant investments on the street and are already operating under difficult conditions, maintaining convenience for their customers is extremely important. We do support the beautification and redesign of the space for public events but feel that it will cause more problems than its worth to have this blocked to traffic and parking when not in use with scheduled “formal programming”. We also support the notion that designing and constructing this area to the full scope will be better received by the businesses and community if it is planned with this flexibility in mind.

We are interested in having a role in the planning and discussion of this project and have a voice in its program and execution. The WBA values it relationship with the Township and we look forward to working together to continue to better our beautiful town.

Wayne Business Association📌

You can read about this project in Savvy:

This is a crappy vanity project. It will come at the expense of small businesses, property owners, and residents.

Radnor Township is a Home Rule Charter municipality. When is the last time residents gathered together to find out if they were actually following what they were supposed to be doing? I asked that question because their neighbors in Tredyffrin are also Home Rule Charter and they don’t seem to be doing what they’re supposed to be doing, do they?

Wayne is actually a walkable community and I think they’re about to ruin it. Please support the businesses in Wayne and the residents in North Wayne. This is plain and simple an Emperor’s New Clothes plan.

hey east whiteland show your work if aqua sent a will serve letter

In today’s scintillating edition of East Whiteland is a shit show and they aren’t protecting residents comes the magical news that they now have a will serve letter from AQUA.

Show and tell time East Whiteland or it’s all just more bullshit, except it will be that in the end anyway.

Possibly related? Apparently there are a lot of problems in house in East Whiteland Township. Could it be the management style or the management itself?

IF NO ONE CAN SEE THE LETTER IS IT JUST A MUNICIPAL FAIRY TALE?

get ready to vote…in east whiteland

My ballot was slightly mutilated, but it arrived. I have already filled it in. Especially the additional supervisors question.

My impetus?

The data center.

Why?

Two supervisors whom in my opinion are afraid to say no, and a third who is a total nasty to residents, a form of sell out.

Members of the Great Valley Democrats literally went to community signing events to stop the ballot question from reaching the ballot (former supervisor Bill Holmes and former VP of ChesCo Dems Jerry Pyne). Now they are saying nothing…but in my humble opinion we know that they are most probably still quietly trying to quite literally stop the public from what they have the right and legal choice to want.

The other thing to note is the Vacancy Board chair in East Whiteland is Jerry Pyne right? So that makes him a tiebreaker in case a supervisor gets incapacitated, and it also gives him the ability to appoint someone, correct? So is it so far-fetched to think that if something happened he might appoint Bill Holmes again if the opportunity arose?

Now the East Whiteland Republican committee is busy, busy, busy posting Trump BS and sharing disbarred Rudy Giuliani posts and circulating their version of a sample ballot where they say no to 2 additional supervisors.

It kind of blows my mind that they are actively soliciting Republicans to say no to this because it’s actually an opportunity for them to level the playing field in East Whiteland because they aren’t getting any traction otherwise.

It is possible that it is a curiously just East Whiteland thing that both political parties are freaking out at the idea of two more supervisors. The politics in this particular township are not particularly enlightened and there has always been deal making between the two parties hasn’t there been? At different points in time I have almost felt like it’s a giant political party named Pat (like the Saturday Night Live skits of years past ) not really one thing or the other, but both.

East Whiteland residents will hopefully take this opportunity to push back where they can. The township has grown exponentially since inception of local government, and there needs to be more representation. Whichever political party ends up on the top of the dirt pile depends entirely on them. It would be nice to see supervisors who were registered independents.

But that’s a conversation for another day. I do believe there are people willing to run. We just have to get two more supervisors added.

So if you are a mail in ballot person, it’s easy same as if you vote in person. Say YES to two more supervisors and consider saying NO to Kristine Howard if you can manage it.

Make the future what you want.

what’s up at foote mineral today?

This was sent to me and it was taken over near the bike trail bridge.

How is it they keep digging and stuff when they don’t have the AQUA letters, all of the PECO stuff etc.?

What is going on over at Foote Mineral in East Whiteland Township today?

The person who sent video said:

“They had a 20 foot by 4 foot wide drain pipe in the bucket . It did not look very old.”

#DataCenterWatch

east whiteland seems ok with recreating louden county virginia more locally?

East Whiteland wants a pat on the back for updating their website where it concerns the data center? Here’s the link but don’t expect a pat on the back from me:

https://www.eastwhiteland.org/news_detail_T2_R315.php

If they want praise, then they can stop the data center, right?

I am quite honestly sick of the municipal soft shoe here, aren’t all of you? This project IMHO will be worse and more destructive that Foote Mineral the EPA superfund site it’s being built on. Note I said in my humble opinion/IMHO.

Also IMHO? They should have said no and could have said no when Charlie the fig wanted a hydrogen hub in West Whiteland way back when right?

Now stockbroker turned developer Charlie is getting pissy on his LinkedIn and seemingly defensive according to this screenshot isn’t he? I ditched LinkedIn as a useless social media appendage a few years ago now, so this was sent to me as it is currently circulating as curious, right?

The eternal puzzle of course is how is there work going on over there at Foote if they don’t have the green light letters from AQUA or PECO? And crushing what exactly and does the township, PA DEP, and EPA give a f😡ck?

Of course what is most amusing about this LinkedIn rant are this dude’s assertions that without his data center we will have no cell phones, no Internet, Netflix, etc etc? Oh ok we’ll wait for the proof that his ever changing project is for all of that right? I mean especially since we have all of these things without his community and environmental killing project now right? And I guess he and big orange are best buddies since he makes a misleading national security statement?

Is he like freaking Moses with the electronic Ten Commandments or what?

Here’s his excellent website this morning FYI:

(Tried several different browsers so far and if he can’t put up a consistent or basic website, East Whiteland wants to trust him with a data center? 🤣)

Here’s the website of the New York crew: https://sentineldatacenters.com/

Note that they are in Louden County Virginia:

So Charlie the fig seems to really want his data center? How’s about putting it in his front yard in Willistown then? What could possibly go wrong?

I will close with a video from Louden County, Virginia…the place East Whiteland didn’t know about when starting the data center journey back when Rich Orlow and Sue Drummond were still supervisors but couldn’t have been bothered checking out before they started down this path to hell, right? And then when was it in the last year or so that they said they spoke to Louden County, Virginia officials and still did not get it? They never physically went to visit did they?

Well here East Whiteland Township, watch this you collective of data center-centric idiots. This is what you are dooming us to:

Oh and read this:

happy anniversary frazer antique market!

Photo courtesy of
Frazer Antique Market

Yesterday I wandered into my favorite haunt to celebrate day 1 of the first anniversary weekend of the rebirth and rejuvenation of a beloved local business.

Now under the direction of Kristin Smith of Smithfield Barn fame, it is an absolute wonderland of antiques, vintage finds, and artisan crafts people. With Kristin at the helm, it is an ever changing kaleidoscope of wonderful!

Yes I essentially have frequent flyer miles, but I love the place!

This weekend, there are special treats every day to celebrate this market. Antique markets used to be plentiful in this area, now they are more scarce than hens’ teeth. this market is shopping local and it’s wonderful.

elizabeth moro has josh shapiro stumping for her? so is she really against data centers?

A commercial appeared when I was watching the 6 o’clock NBC 10 news today. It was a replay and it had a commercial from PA state representative candidate Elizabeth Moro. She is running against Craig Williams again in the PA 160. There she was in a farm field in a plaid shirt, and one of the things mentioned is how she would help her constituents against data centers.

Umm really?

(Mind you I’m not saying Craig Williams is fabulous either when it comes to data centers because he’s a bring your own energy guy which means a potential power plant next door to your residential street.)

This is is not an endorsement for Craig Williams. This is just pointing out the simple fact that while Elizabeth might be a nice human being with a great local business, she’s possibly not your gal for state representative if Josh Shapiro is stumping for her.

Why?

Again it’s simple: data centers and what they really mean to our Governor.

I told all of my readers a few weeks ago now that if a candidate really isn’t for protecting the people against hyperscale data centers, they aren’t your candidate no matter what political party.

Elizabeth is a Democrat and honestly, maybe it would be nice to have one down there in the 160, but not at the expense of the people if she’s not really against mega scale hyperscale data centers OK?

So Elizabeth can either truly be against data centers or just be truly interested in a girly squeaky way wearing high heels with her jeans and her plaid shirts and posing for photos with Governor Josh Shapiro.

I noticed the more folksy touch from her with the plaid shirts in a farm field and elsewhere, and then I saw a picture of her with Governor Shapiro and she had the high heels on with the jeans and that is I’m sorry just too 1980a college for me. Heels are also not farm field attire are they?

Step apart from the corporate Democrat pack Elizabeth. Truly be against data centers (which are gobbling up farm fields like the ones you have been posing in.)

You can’t be a little bit preggers here as a candidate in PA over data centers, so spell it out. Be very specific, do not be a generalist.

Previous to this, Elizabeth has run for this PA state house seat before (against Craig Williams) and for Congress (she withdrew because of redistricting.)
