Agreed. John's expertise as a chemical engineer who supervised projects of over 60 million dollars for 2 major oil companies give him qualifications far beyond the other candidates. At a time where the infrastructure of our roads, trees, water and sewer systems are in desperate need of attention he's the right man at the right time.   more ›

Voters Size Up Commissioners Candidates After Debate

Six candidates for three seats on the Haddonfield Board of Commissioners debated on Wednesday.

A wide-ranging debate among six candidates for three seats on the Haddonfield Board of Commissioners Wednesday drew few sharp distinctions but still helped some in the audience of more than 100 narrow their choices. "I really liked Neal Rochford," said Heather Vaughn, 45, a homemaker and former teacher with children at Tatem Elementary School. "He had very candid answers. He's not afraid to speak what he really feels. I liked his sense of humor and his honesty." Rochford resonated with a sampling of audience members as they filed out of the Haddonfield Memorial High School auditorium after the two-hour debate. The 53-year-old former borough commissioner, a former owner of a printing company, was defeated in 2008 after one term and is now …

Neal Rochford Running for Borough Commissioner

The former Haddonfield commissioner is trying to reclaim a seat.

Neal Rochford, a former borough commissioner, announced Tuesday he is running again for office. Rochford was elected to the board in 2005 and served as director of revenue and finance for four years, according to a news release. He lost his bid for re-election in 2009 by eight votes. That margin inspired the slogan Rochford adopted for his current campaign: "THIS time: Neal!" All three seats on the borough Board of Commissioners are up for election. Commissioner Letitia "Tish" Colombi, who has been mayor for the past 12 years, announced last month that she will not seek another four-year term after 28 years on the commission. Commissioner Jeff Kasko also announced his election bid Tuesday; Commissioner Ed Borden is expected to announce his…
