Legislative Update
I was proud to join the Ross
Township Commissioners, Ross
Township Police Department, Rep.
Emily Kinkead, and members of Chief Vernon Moses’s family on
September 9th to celebrate the dedication of the Chief Vernon Moses
Memorial Highway in Ross Township. This portion of Route 19 between
Ivory Avenue and Cemetery Lane is dedicated to former Police
Chief Vernon Moses, who was killed in the line of duty on May 3, 1932.
I’m happy that my legislation honoring the life and legacy of
Chief Moses was passed this year, during the celebration of the 100th
anniversary of the Ross Township Police Department.

township manager and upcoming
comprehensive plan, there were lots of opportunities for residents

Northland
Public Library: Breakfast, Books, and
Beyond!
September is Love Your Library
Month! I learned so much about Northland
Public Library in McCandless last Thursday touring with my fellow
legislators. Did you know that in 2021 Northland Public Library
checked out 940,000 items? That is more than twice the number checked
out by any other library in Allegheny County! Executive Director Amy
Steele and her staff gave us a comprehensive tour, including a peek at
behind-the-scenes materials processing, the children’s library
selection process, computer center community support, reference desk
use, and program planning. Libraries aren’t just a place to
check out a book, they are a constantly evolving resource for
communities.
