Township residents calling for a zoning inspector will be met with a new face beginning this month with the appointment of Brian Prunty as assistant planning and zoning director for Howland. Prunty was appointed to the position after former assistant director Kim Mascarella moved up to the director’s position. Prunty, who graduated from Kent State University with a degree in geology and earth science, hopes to use his expertise working with soil and water conservation to move the township to the future. ‘‘The township is a hot spot for development,’’ Prunty said. ‘‘Everyone’s leaving (U.S. Route) 422 and moving to Cortland Niles Road.’’ As development moves into the township, Prunty hopes to incorporate his ideas for storm water projects into any new construction. ‘‘Other departments have landscape mandates for beautification,’’ Prunty said. ‘‘These areas are used for beautification and help shade the parking lots and keep those areas cooler.
