Outgoing Clerk Kimberly Markee urges integrity, transparency and bipartisanship in farewell remarks
Summary
Kimberly Markee received recognition from trustees and delivered farewell remarks urging the board to prioritize residents, integrity and transparency, closing with the line, "We are all AMERICANS FIRST!"
Clerk Kimberly Markee received flowers from Supervisor Anthony Bartolotta and brief tributes from trustees at the April 27 board meeting as she prepares to retire.
Markee used her remarks to emphasize public service principles she said guided her tenure: prioritize residents, preserve integrity in decision-making, and pursue transparency. She urged trustees to treat one another professionally, to seek bipartisan engagement and to avoid partisan “mud‑slinging.” She cited election administration accomplishments — including expanded early voting and passport services — and encouraged continued open communication with residents.
Markee closed her remarks with an appeal to common purpose: "We are all AMERICANS FIRST!" Trustees and several residents in public comment thanked her for years of service to the township.
