On December 13, 2017, Lower Oxford Township said a heartfelt farewell to Mr. Kenneth L. Hershey on his retirement as Supervisor.  Mr. Hershey has served as Supervisor for the last 24 years and as Planning Commission Member six years prior.   He was presented with a plaque and a memorial frame that included some of his accomplishments as Supervisor.   Mr. Hershey was an integral part of the construction of the new township building that was completed in 1999, volunteering his personal time and service.  Mr. Hershey was also instrumental in the planning process for the Oxford Commons site which brought to fruition the long-range goals the Supervisors had envisioned of commercial growth along the Route #10 and Route #1 corridor.  Mr. Hershey is known for his involvement in the Oxford Produce Auction located on Union School Road bringing it to completion as well.  Also, Mr. Hershey has been pro-active working with Chester County Ag Preservation in successfully preserving more than 4,000 acres of farmland in Lower Oxford.  W. Ronald Kepler and Joel C. Brown wished Mr. Hershey their best and thanked him for his faithful service to the residents of Lower Oxford.
