Mayor Dianne Herrin, West Chester Borough
As a Borough resident and homeowner for 18 years, VP of a small business in the town center, and an active participant in local government for more than 15 years, I have a deep understanding of West Chester. I love this community for everything it has to offer – and for everything it promises to be.
