I was told there was an Attorney Generals opinion that it was incompatible but it was a case by case decision. There is no qualified candidate to run for this office in the Township, except for me
My best recommendation would be to contact the local State's attorney office to confirm if this is OK. I do not see why you cannot run for this office, though you may be required to take a leave of absence. Even if this is proper, you need to be very careful that any campaign work you engage in is 100% separate from your job. That means everything you do must be done after normal work hours and you cannot use any resources from your county office: do not use the copy machine, the fax, your county email address, no pens and pencils purchased by the county, etc
