A motion to hire a new planning specialist, reporting to the Township’s Director of Community Development, was approved by Cranberry’s Board of Supervisors at its September 4 meeting. Kathleen McCaig will be joining the Township’s staff starting September 15. Ms. McCaig is currently an associate with TND Associates, a development consulting firm in Baldwin, Maryland. She holds master’s degrees architecture and sustainable design from Catholic University of America. One of her early assignments will be to coordinate the update of Cranberry’s 2009 comprehensive plan. The planning position was created following the resignation of Cranberry’s lead planner and Chief Strategy Officer earlier this year.
