THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

As many of you may or may not know, this November I will be seeking election to my first term on the Union Beach Borough Council. While I am honored and humbled to be given the opportunity to serve my community, I am also very much aware of the enormous responsability, dedication and countless hours of hard work that come with the position of Union Beach Borough Councilman.

It is my belief that the most important responsability of a borough councilman is not only listening to the people, but being the voice of the people. It will be my job, from day one to represent all of the people regardless of party affiliation, voting status, age, gender, religion, profession and / or associations. For me, it will be the collective voice of the Union Beach resident that I will use to speak with.

Over the past six months, I have attended every agenda meeting and every regular meeting of the Union Beach Borough Council and although the issues at hand always vary and the opinions are not always the same, the one constant that remains is always...."What is in the best interests of the residents of Union Beach ?" This is the one question that I will always ask regardless of the issue.

Although I have my own ideas, opinions and beliefs, I will never place them above the ideas, opinions and beliefs of the collective will of the residents of Union Beach.
