Township Manager’s Message Community Resilience through COVID-19 Dear Township Resident, My hope is that by the time this newsletter is published, some semblance of a normal life has returned. During this time of uncertainty, the Township's priority is the safety and well-being of our employees, residents, and businesses.

The Township has been adhering to guidelines from the CDC and Governor's Office. Through it all, we have remained patient and resilient and now it is time to rethink and rebuild - ONE STEP AT A TIME. Through the pandemic, the Township staff and municipal operations remained fully operational and we strived to continue providing the essential services to our community.

Township's Efforts to Continue Essential Services: The Township of Marple's Administration and Department of Emergency Management continue to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak in our Township. The measures that we have taken to date remain in place and improvements to our action plan are made on a regular basis. CDC and PA DOH standards are reviewed and implemented or adjusted daily. All employees are

temperature screened daily. All occupied Township facilities are sanitized with CDC and FDA approved cleaning agents with high touch areas cleaned based on volume. Multiple hand sanitizing stations have been placed throughout the Township Buildings and Township Vehicles. All Township employees have been issued masks or a face cover and are required to wear them in accordance

to the PA DOH guidelines. The Township has secured a variety of mask types to allow for the most comfortable and effective fit and has acquired enough masks for the foreseeable future. Some things have changed with our interactions, but one thing has not - we are here to help. Please let us know what we can do to provide any assistance.

Here are some updates on our department services: ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING

Township staff continues to serve the needs of our residents and businesses while not having direct contact with the public. Interactions with staff are done via telephone, email, or by utilizing the outside drop boxes located at the entrance to the Township Municipal Building. The drop boxes locked and accessible 24 hours, 7 days a week.

Payments to the Township or to the Tax Collector can be made by US Mail or the outside drop boxes. If using the drop box, please pay by check or money order only (no cash) and place in an envelope.

All envelopes must be clearly marked with your name, property address, phone number, and e-mail address (if applicable). If an e-mail address is provided, we will email you a receipt.

new features will be added. Feedback is welcome as we develop the site further.

We have also launched our new mobile app. that will make it even easier for our residents to access township information and to request services. For the Apple consolidated app, users can download the app and the icon that will display on their device will be the CivicMobile app icon. Once you opened the app, you have the option to search for “Marple Township, PA” or they can use the 'Find Your Location' feature. After selecting the app, it will not show the splash screen, but will open directly to the menu screen of your app.

Park playgrounds and open spaces are open for passive activities and we strongly encourage social distancing when using them.

Our next major improvement is on-line payment. The township will offer the ability for residents to pay for services, such as, Bulk Pick-up, permits, taxes and other services that will allow our residents to access pay for the township services. We are hopeful to have this new service available by December 2020.

WEBSITE

EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEM

The Township recently launched a newly designed website, www.marpletwp.com, that is intended to create a more professional and user friendly experience following a series of improvements and enhancements.

Many of the improvements were derived from responses to the Township website redesign team and input from residents.

Additional revisions will be made, and 4

www.marpletwp.com

Especially after the most recent Tropical Storm Isaias, I would like to remind residents about the importance of subscribing to the Townships Emergency Notification System. It is an essential service that provides information from

our emergency management personnel so our community can be prepared for unexpected emergencies. In the event of an emergency that affects Marple Township, a subscriber who has provided us with their home and/or cell phone number(s) will be contacted via a prerecorded voice message about the nature of the event as well as proper response actions that the public should undertake. This service is provided by the Delaware County Emergency Notification System (DELCO ALERT), a strategic voice messaging system.

Although the Township has provided Delco Alert with a general database of Marple Township home and business phone numbers, all residents are urged to subscribe all of their phone numbers (home and cell) to ensure that they receive proper emergency voice notifications.

To subscribe: http://www.co.delaware.pa.us/ delcoready/delcoalert.html Once again, our number one goal is public service and we see it as an honor and privilege to provide it to you. Should you ever need to talk with me personally, please feel free to contact me by telephone at (610) 356-4040.

Police Department Message To say that this year has been abnormal would be a huge understatement. As I write this, the Major League Baseball “season” is underway while the hand wringing continues about the fate of fall sports and the resumption of school. The rule of law has become optional in many of our cities causing indescribable devastation, both short-term and long-term, to businesses and workers already coping with the imposed consequences of a pandemic. While science fluctuates and “experts” pontificate, individual opinions seem more cemented than ever, if one is even comfortable sharing them in the first place for fear of losing a job, or worse. COVID-19 and the culture war have stolen the headlines in 2020. But the story does not have to end there unless each one of us allows it.

In his book Resilience, Eric Greitens suggests that “you are not responsible for everything that happens to you, you are responsible for how you deal with what happens to you.” Be

curious and informed but let the bulk of the noise wash over you. Focus on your family, your neighborhood, your community, your religion…whatever helps you sustain a positive outlook and healthy well being.

Here at the Marple Township Police Department we are living examples of this approach. Each one of our officers is committed to their families at home and to each other at 1001 Sussex Blvd. This solid foundation allows us to excel at maintaining our commitment to this community. Since the advent of COVID in mid March through the continuing protests and riots, we remain as committed as ever to our sworn oaths. We are duty bound and honored to support, obey, and defend the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution and laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the Ordinances and Regulations of this great Township. We do so without consideration to any individual's composition or beliefs and regardless of what is, or might just appear to

be, popular opinion. It is what you expect from us and it is what we deliver. This remains a safe and productive township and it will remain so primarily because of your choices, and with a small assist from your police department.

Through all this I have been witness to the heartfelt goodwill, kindness, and gestures of appreciation directed at our officers on a near daily basis. This is how the Marple community “deals with what happens” and we are all stronger for it. Each and every gesture - be it food, cards, drawings, pictures, or a fellow citizen going out of the way to say to an officer “thank you” or “I support you” - is received and remembered with humble gratitude. Please know that each one of these individual gestures helps to strengthen the police, the community, and that integral bond that binds us. Thank you!

Brandon M. Graeff Chief of Police
