Rather than disregard the passionate voices and hard work of the community, we want to bring transparency and real leadership to our Village. Sensible Development
We’re for smart and sensible development in Tuckahoe. Sensible development means developing a strategic plan for building that is in the interests of the majority of the community. Rather than greenlighting reckless and high-risk project
s, we want to work with you to find out what’s the best way to develop our community. Tuckahoe is a unique, treasured Village with a deep history and promising future. Transparent Government
We will actively listen to the opinions and needs of everyone in our community. Whether you are a long term resident, new to the area, or a local business owner, we’ll work to ensure you have input about how our Village works. Rather than just pushing out premade decisions through formal postings or legally mandated hearings, we will reach out to and engage our community in new ways: more informal meetings, real communication through social media, and creating liaisons to schools, civic organizations, business associations, and houses of worship. Our communication will not be a “one-way street,” but a meaningful exchange of opinions and ideas. You will contribute to the decision-making process in Tuckahoe. Better Fiscal Management
We’re committed to improving the fiscal management of our Village. Our residents and businesses pay a lot of their hard-earned money in taxes. We don’t want taxpayers to pay one penny more than necessary, so we’re committed to responsible budgeting, eliminating wasteful spending, and conducting smarter financial planning through a transparent process. Term Limits
We’re passionate about Tuckahoe, but we are not looking to become career politicians. That’s why we’re in favor of term limits for elected offices and appointed boards. Term limits can ensure healthy turnover with increased community participation and foster new thinking in government as our community evolves. Real Leadership
Lastly, we promise real, positive leadership. Positive leadership means earning your trust by listening and understanding your concerns and needs. It means respect for community input. We aspire to be the kinds of leaders that will reach out and work with you to improve our Village together.
