Bill Shields, A   Trustee

The elections for the 4 Trustees and the rest of the Comstock positions (Supervisor, Clerk, Treasurer.) correspond with the presidential election. All are 4 year terms,just like the president.

Being Trustees, William Shields, Jeffrey Bogema, Shelly Cornell, and Ellen Eggleston sit at the township meetings and make choices for the township.  I interviewed only Bill Shields though.  Mr. Shields has been serving over 20 years as a Trustee.  He enjoys each meeting because every one brings new things.  He said  it's fun to see how the township is running.  He regrets that you can't please everyone, though.  The four Trustees have no ranks or positions.  Meetings are the first and third Mondays of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the Township Hall.  Trustees receive reasonable pay for spending 3-4  hours  per day going to meetings and doing other work.  Their job also involves seeing that the township is running wellSounds like a good part time job, doesn't it?
