Flashback 2015 to Lee Carpenter & Dream Fields

Bridgeport's new Township Clerk is Lee Carpenter who also owns Dream Fields landscaping business.  I am not sure when Bridgeport Township first hired Dream Fields to do some of their landscaping projects in our township but in 2015 there were complaints about the work, or lack thereof, being performed by Dream Fields.  It is first brought up in a slightly heated at times discussion during a Bridgeport Township DDA Board meeting of June 10th, 2015.  The discussion takes place during the Beautification Committee Update segment.  Video below is cued up to the discussion, just click the link.

Bridgeport Township DDA Board Meeting June 10th, 2015

There was more discussion about the landscaping contracts during the DDA Board meetings of July 8th, 2015, September 9th, 2015, October 14th, 2015.  I missed several of the DDA Board meetings over the next several months so I am not sure if they discussed the contracts or Dream Fields. During the February 24th, 2016  meeting of the DDA Board it was mentioned that Reliable Lawn and Landscape would be doing the landscaping for all the projects in Bridgeport done by the DDA Board.  Reliable had been doing some of the landscaping projects in the township for several years and the board was very happy with their work in the past.


2011 - Lee Carpenter is recalled from the Bridgeport Township Trustee board by the voters.
2012 - Lee Carpenter runs in election to regain his seat as Township Clerk but voters say NO!
2015/2016 - Bridgeport DDA Board no longer will be hiring Mr. Carpenter's business Dream Fields for landscaping services because they are unhappy with the work performed.
2019 - Members of the Bridgeport Township Trustee Board vote to hire Mr. Carpenter to fill the vacant position of Bridgeport Township Clerk based on his "experience".
