For over 12 years, he served the Township as a member of the Municipal Services Commission, the last 6 of those years as its Chairperson.  In addition to serving on the Municipal Services Commission, he represented West Whiteland Township as a member of the Board of Directors of the Downingtown Area Municipal Authority from 1995 until he joined the Board of Supervisors. Mr. Choper’s volunteer service also includes many years as a team coach and manager for the Exton Little League.

Mr. Choper and his wife Alice live in the Whitford Village section of the Township. Their two daughters, Jessica and Susan, were raised in West Whiteland, and both attended SS Philip & James and Bishop Shanahan schools prior to attending college.

Mr. Choper believes that West Whiteland Township substantially benefits from the active participation of its citizens in the many volunteer opportunities that exist within the Township. He is optimistic that his participation on the Board of Supervisors will make the Township an even better place to live, to work, and to visit. He is particularly interested in enhancing the quality of our parks and recreation programs, of furthering the Township’s efforts to acquire and retain open space, of controlling growth and development within the Township, and of ensuring that West Whiteland Township government remains open and responsive to the citizens it serves.
