In a Letter to Middle Township Republican Leader Dan Lockwood, Deputy Mayor Theron “Ike” Gandy announced his intention to seek a third, three-year term on Township Committee. Gandy was first elected in 2018 and currently serves in partnership with Committeeman Jim Norris and newly elected Mayor Chris Leusner.

“I’m proud of the good work we have accomplished under former Mayor Donohue’s leadership,” Gandy said. “I look to the future, confident that this good work will continue. I’m committed to moving forward, as a united team with Chris Leusner and Jim Norris, to do the hard work required to meet the challenges we face in 2024 and beyond.”

Gandy has oversight of several departments, including Zoning, Construction, Public Works, Sewer and Buildings and Grounds. Under his leadership, the Township has made significant progress in upgrading and modernizing its sewer infrastructure, streamlining the zoning and construction permitting processes, updating the Public Works fleet and completing important upgrades to Township facilities.

Ike Gandy is a lifelong Middle Township resident and resides in Swainton with his wife, Maren and son, Ty. Ike is a proud union member of the Eastern Atlantic Regional Council of Carpenters and serves as a Supervising Foreman on major construction projects throughout South Jersey. Gandy has served on the Township Planning Board for six years.

“I never take for granted the trust that the voters of Middle Township have place in me to humbly serve these past six years,” Gandy said. “I am honored to be member of the Middle United Team and to work every day with our outstanding and dedicated employees. There is much good work still to be done. I look forward to earning the endorsement of the Middle Township GOP, running on our strong record and getting out to meet and hear from the voters.”
