Newtown Twp. fire chief seeks more career firefighters – Bucks Round-Up – November 5, 2026

Newtown Township Fire Chief Glenn Forsyth says the township needs approximately ten additional career firefighters as volunteer recruitment continues to decline. The township currently employs fourteen salaried firefighters. Forsyth told Supervisor Elen Snyder that the October 8 Tall Oaks fire could have been far worse without the department’s paid staff. Forsyth said the dangers of firefighting and the extensive training required make it difficult to attract and retain volunteers. “You are doing a job where you can get seriously injured or killed,” Forsyth said, noting that some recruits reconsider after attending fire school. Snyder acknowledged the need to address staffing in the township budget. “I think that’s a good example of why we have to plan in our budget to hire more firefighters,” she said. A $500,000 grant Newtown Township receives to pay for firefighters will expire in March of 2027, raising a major fiscal concern. The supervisors are also considering other public safety expenses, including fire hydrant maintenance.

But singling out businesses because their owners are Jewish is unacceptable and has no place in our city,” Parker wrote. Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker labeled the bicycle protest organized by anti-Israel activists targeting businesses with Jewish owners as “unacceptable.” REUTERS Parker shared her statement on X on Thursday. Credit: X/@PhillyMayor Philly’s Nazi-laden boycott proves it was never actually about Palestine — just the Jews “No one should be targeted, threatened, or made to feel unwelcome because of their faith, identity, or background. Every person deserves to feel safe and respected in the city they call home,” she fumed. Parker said the planned boycott of Jewish-owned businesses “falls on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht, a date that carries profound pain for our Jewish neighbors and for all who remember where unchecked hatred can lead.” “Anyone
