Bingham Township Supervisor Robert Foster seems to be digging a deep hole for himself. Foster is in trouble with the Army Corps of Engineers for taking it upon himself to groom the township beach, as well as for bullying former township Clerk Dorothy Petroskey.

As this Record-Eagle editorial says, Foster seems to be a supervisor of a type familiar to residents of other area townships including Elmwood, where Noel Flohe was similarly careless of the laws and of the truth. We agree with the Record-Eagle editorialists: township voters deserve better than this.
