admitted actions were “almost criminal”
and told the assembled audience of about
100 residents that it is the job of the town-
ship clerk to assist and serve all the resi-
dents, not just those shemay “favor.”
During the question-and-answer peri-
od, one audience member submitted a
question read by moderator Roberta
Young, “Is it the responsibility of the town-
ship clerk to alert a candidate of a minor
error on the application to run for public
office? Why or why not?” The question
elicited a murmur from informed audi-
ence members who were aware of Heise
and Schnettler's omission of their precinct
numbers and the subsequent court chal-
lenge to their candidacy.
Vorva who was first to answer, fired
back, “Absolutely.” He said candidate
forms include a provision stating the docu-
ments have been reviewed and “…the per-
son to review that is the clerk.”
“In the instance you're talking about,
the clerk failed to review it, didn't sign it,
still she sent it to the county and then told
the particular candidate that everything
was fine. I think this is misfeasance. I
think it's underhanded. I think it's terrible
that it happened,” Vorva said.
Conzelman responded that she dis-
agreed with Vorva and that the Michigan
Court of Appeals ruled that it was the can-
didate's responsibility to correctly com-
plete their paperwork including the affi-
davits of identity.
“There's a difference between the
application that goes along with the peti-
tion and the affidavit of identity. The affi-
davit of identity is notarized when the can-
didate signs it. The candidate goes over it
and if the candidate cannot fill in all the
blanks, the candidate should not feel the
clerk is the responsible person and should
not be relying on someone else to check
their input. There's a standard that specifi-
cally requires the review of the petitions.
The affidavit of identity is a completely dif-
ferent document. One I did see, I did cor-
rected (sic) it for some candidates. Wayne
County corrected it in some candidates.
Both of those candidates had the exact
same amount of time to review their
paperwork,” Conzelman said.
Vorva, speaking out of turn, retorted
sharply, “I'm outraged… she's correcting
for other people. Who did you help, Price
and Edwards?” His remark was a refer-
ence to incumbent candidates Price and
TreasurerRonEdwards.
“I helped Doroshewitz,” Conzelman
said, referring to incumbent Trustee Bob
Doroshewitzwho is seeking re-election.
Heise said after the meeting that he
was going to seek legal counsel in response
to Conzelman's disclosure that she had
helped other candidates to ensure their
paperwork was complete while not offer-
ing himthe same consideration.
“It was absolutely stunning to hear
Nancy Conzelman admit that she cherry-
picked certain affidavits from candidates,
assisting in correcting the mistakes they
had made. This constitutes an abuse of
power and denial of equal protection. I'm
consulting my attorney about the civil and
criminal remedies that may be available to
me. I think this has shown that she can't be
trusted to competently and fairly run the
Aug. 2 election,”Heise said.
Vorva agreed that Conzelman's com-
ments were upsetting, but said he was not
surprised.
“She took an oath of office to be the
clerk for everyone. When you do this you
have an obligation to assist people, to help
people be registered voters and to help
everyone and she's failed on every count.
She's an attorney; she's an officer of the
court. This kind of behavior is grounds for
disbarment,” Vorva, a former state repre-
sentative and a former member of the
PlymouthCity Commission, stated.
Candidates also clashed regarding the
new Plymouth Arts and Recreation
Complex (PARC), incumbents claiming
their failure to support the project is an
effort to protect township taxpayers while
other candidates claim that the township
resolution forbidding any cooperation
with the city on any issue is politically
motivated and not in the best interest of
residents.
Edwards, the main opponent of PARC
and the instigator of the non-cooperation
resolution, did not appear at this forum or
at an earlier candidates' forum at PARC
two weeks ago. Price, Conzelman and
incumbent trustee candidate Mike Kelly
also failed to appear at that earlier candi-
dates' meeting.
“I've already debated him (Heise) about
PARCand the fire department and besides
I thought Soenen was going to work with
us and support us about things and now
he's got all those signs on his lawn,” Price
said the day after thePARC forum. He said
he thought the reason Edwards,
Conzelman and Kelly also decided to boy-
cott the PARC forum was, “I think they
agreedwithme onSoenen.”

Former Wayne manager
facing hit and run charges
Former Wayne City Manager Robert
English, 60, entered a not guilty plea to
charges he failed to stop at a personal
injury accident at his arraignment in 29th
District Court late lastmonth.
English was released on bond and is
scheduled for a pre-trial hearing on the
misdemeanor charge before Judge
Sandra Cicirelli at the 18th District Court
inWestland July 14.
The Wayne County Prosecutor issued a
warrant for English on the charges in
early June although the incident took
place just before 9 a.m. Jan. 27 in the area
of Hoover Elementary School. Wayne
police officers were called to the scene
where witnesses reported a hit and run
accident involving a 7-year-old child.
No explanation for the delay in charges
was offered.
Witnesses told police at the time that a
vehicle traveling south of Fourth Street
struck the boy who was crossing the street
just north of Stellwagon outside the
marked crosswalk. Witnesses said that the
driver of the vehicle, later identified as
English, stopped, got out of the car and
spoke with the child before getting back
into the vehicle and dropping off another
child at the school.
Police identifiedEnglishwho reported-
ly initially denied knowledge of striking
the child. Wayne police sent the results of
their investigation to the Wayne County
Prosecutor and the warrant was issued
nearly fivemonths after the incident.
According to court records, this is the
second time English has faced similar
charges. He paid a total of $325 in fines
and court costs after striking a parked car
in September of 2014 in the Kroger park-
ing lot in Westland. A witness supplied
police with the license plate number and
description of the vehicle that left the
scene after that incident. Police later
traced the car to English who was origi-
nally charged with leaving the scene of an
accident. He entered a guilty plea to a
reduced charge of failing to report an acci-
dent andpaid the court costs and fine.
English resigned as Wayne City
Manager inSeptember of 2013.
