With 100% of precincts reporting Tuesday, Sewickley Township board of supervisors Chairman Mark Petros received 56% of the vote in a race against challenger Jon Turik, who received 43%.
During his tenure, Petros said the supervisors have worked to reduce blight in the township, getting 10 dilapidated, vacant buildings demolished. He said the board has not raised taxes and was able to pave roads in the village of Hutchinson. The township also was able to purchase three new vehicles for the public works department.
Turik said he wanted to promote growth in the community to keep young adults there. The township should use the proceeds from the sale of the sewage authority to build some type of center, he added.
Nancy Bickus Neel, 70, a former member of the Yough School Board, ran unopposed in the Democratic primary.
Vote totals are unofficial until certified.
