Sandra Shipper,
Democrat
Shipper charges that
Hammond treats her
position "cavalierly;
makes errors in judg-
ment; bounced $4 mil--
lion in township checks
due to sloppy bookkeeping; failed to
pay IRS withholding taxes on time,"
and "mishandled investments."
If elected, Shipper pledges to give
the job "full-time attention, be cour-
teous to the public and treat fellow
officials with respect and without
partisan bickering." She says she has
a strong financial background and
analytical ability, and would strive to
maximize investment returns and
balance the budget.
Hammond refjects all of Shipper's
charges on the alleged bounced
checks and IRS payments and says
she adheres to the letter of the law
on how to invest the township's
funds, saving the township enormous
amounts of money. She feels she has
a good rapport with her 10 employ-
ees. Shipper counters that "new faces
definitely are needed" on the town-
ship board.
