(From Lodi Township)
Lodi Township is deeply saddened to announce the passing of Township Supervisor Jan Godek, who died on April 2, 2026, at the age of 79.
Jan Godek faithfully served the residents of Lodi Township with dedication, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to public service. During her tenure as Supervisor, she worked diligently to guide the township through growth and development while preserving the character and quality of life that define the community. Jan was known for her willingness to listen and collaborate, and her leadership leaves a lasting impact on Lodi Township and its residents.
“Jan was a respected leader and a steady voice for our township,” said Christina Smith, Clerk. “She will be remembered for her thoughtful leadership, strong work ethic, and genuine care for the people she served.”
The Township Board, staff, and residents extend their heartfelt condolences to Jan's family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. In honor of her service and to celebrate her memory, township flags will be lowered to half-staff on Monday, April 6, 2026.
Sunny, with a high of 76 and low of 57 degrees. Sunny during the morning, clear for the afternoon and evening, patchy rain nearby overnight.
It’s so disappointing when a non-partisan election receives partisan support for a candidate(s). It hasn’t always been this way. I remember the day when no one knew or cared what political party a school board candidate was associated with. Those were the days!
The important notes are that both candidates for Mayor align themselves as Democrats, so no Republican voice will be in the Mayor's Office. Is that a good thing or bad thing?
Both Mark and foreman have never showed their faces at a township meeting in support of their residents. Other communities leaders have.
The Saline Post’s account of the mayor’s coffee hour leaves out important context, and I want to set the record straight.
I was at this event. I have audio of it. You did not ask that direct question. You accused her of saying that she would not attend the meetings. She corrected you in saying that is not at all what she said. You argued back with her that she stated the people had to come to her. That is also not what she said.
