As your Ossining Town Supervisor,
I believe our priorities should be easing the tax burden on our residential taxpayers, protecting our watershed, ecosystem and remaining green spaces, making sure that our parks and riverfront are well maintained and accessible to all, and improving our communication and collaboration with all of our residents and business owners.
I have been focusing on replacing our aging infrastructure and addressing the increasing needs of our storm water systems. I have been working diligently to find and use to good advantage the many grant funding opportunities to support this important work.
Other priorities include incorporating fuel efficient and energy producing technologies to our buildings and fleet to be more sustainable as well as saving the taxpayers money.

CHANGE IS ON THE HORIZON!
As a lifelong resident of Ossining, my first half in the unincorporated Town of Ossining and the second half right here in the village, I have a deep understanding and appreciation of their differences, and how they can work together and yet retain their own identities.
Being your new Town Supervisor has given me the opportunity to dedicate myself full-time to the new comprehensive plan, equity, and evaluation of zoning laws that is on going. I strongly believe in increasing affordability, the preservation of our green spaces, protecting our watershed and preserving our historical structures.
I look forward to continuing our board’s work to find energy efficiencies while reducing our carbon footprint as well as working in collaboration with Sustainable Westchester on our new geothermal heat program. Another priority is finding affordable housing options for seniors and community members without overburdening our infrastructure. I also believe that we should join Briarcliff in incentivizing new commercial businesses to revitalize the vacant commercial properties to support our tax base, rather than turning them into residential areas that will add more students to the already overcrowded Ossining school system.
I think it’s important to listen to and collaborate with all members of the community to understand what works best for Ossining.
I look forward to meeting and speaking in the near future.
Thank you for your support.
