On Monday, February 24th, there are two coinciding opportunities to make your voice heard on oil and gas issues in Canonsburg Borough and Cecil Township. The Oil and Gas industry and its friends are expected to be in attendance for both, making their demands known. Both of these meetings are opportunities for you to make sure that your local government officials are listening to you instead of just industry.
If you live in Canonsburg, the Borough of Canonsburg is holding a public workshop on Monday, February 24th at 6:30 PM to discuss what industry investment and encouragement folks want to see in Canonsburg. Jeff Kotula, President of the Washington County Chamber of Commerce and an avid supporter of the Oil and Gas industry, is listed as a speaker.
