"It has been an honor for me to have served as Village Trustee for the past 6 years. I am asking for your support in re-electing me so that I can continue my work as liaison to the Tarrytown Seniors, Tarrytown Housing Authorities, the Architectural Review Board and in my committee work on the Shared Services Task Force for Parks and Recreation and the Library Budget Board. Not only have I spent the past 4 years learning in detail about the work of these committees, but I know we are all meeting together to problem-solve on behalf of the entire village.

There are many more projects on the horizon for the Village that I look forward to working on as well: final work on our waterfront parks, continued vigilance on the Tappan Zee Bridge replacement planning, and oversight of our village's expenditures, tax structure and financial health."
