If you’ve attended a State College borough council meeting, you’ve likely seen Janet Engeman.
She’s been a vocal borough resident for years, and makes her way to the podium to voice her opinion on municipal issues at just about every meeting.
Engeman came to the realization that she could continue being one of the “gadflies” that constantly addresses council, or she could alternatively earn herself a seat on that very same council to become one of the decision makers instead.
With her love for State College in mind, Engeman decided to run in the upcoming borough council election as one of four Democratic candidates taking part on the race.
Here’s the third edition of our video series previewing the borough council candidates.
