- {"1":"Brief introduction\nFull-time Twp Engineer and employee of Montclair for 11 years.\nFormer life – traffic engineer/transportation planning\nSince becoming engineer, the accomplishment I’m most proud of is the change in how we think about road jobs.\nMost significant was employing design standards that did more than replace what’s there. Started looking at alignment issues and reducing pavement wherever possible.\nAlso got Council to adopt a policy on how/when to employ physical traffic calming devices in response to resident concerns.\n"}
