Since they were elected two years ago, Sean Haggerty, Frank DeMento and Patrick Hance have worked continuously to improve Munsey Park residents’ quality of life. Each has earned my vote in the Munsey Park Village election on Wednesday, March 18.
Haggerty has demonstrated a hands-on leadership style as deputy mayor. Sean was instrumental in revitalizing Copley Pond Park. He worked with fellow trustees in addition to town and state officials to secure funding. He also coordinated with community groups, dealt with contractors and managed the site work to get the job done on time and on budget. Sean’s focus on transparency and open government provided the impetus for the informative monthly newsletters and key support for increased resident participation on Village committees. His energy, intelligence and candor position him well to be the next Mayor of Munsey Park.
DeMento has been a wonderful mayor during the past term. He worked with Village staff to increase efficiencies and improve responsiveness to residents. Frank led the effort to update the Village code, streamline the permitting process and simplify the fee structure. His unwavering integrity and commitment to “home rule” serves residents well. As a trustee, Frank will continue to be an asset to the Village.
Hance is effective as a trustee, financial officer and head of the tree committee. His conservative approach to budgeting and financial planning has positioned the Village to make meaningful balance sheet improvements with the upcoming bond refinance. Patrick’s evenhanded approach to tree issues has allowed residents to protect their property while preserving the Village’s environment.
Please join me to show support for the dedication that Haggerty, DeMento and Hance have demonstrated in the community by voting for them.
