I am endorsing and intend to vote for Gary Pagano for mayor of Manorhaven and Barbara Ruemenapp and Ken Kraft for trustees. I know all the candidates and feel that these three have the interest of the Manorhaven residents as their motivation for wanting to serve the village. My major concern is zoning in the village. I believe these candidates are independent and not aligned and funded by people who do not live in Manorhaven. I’m especially concerned about over-building and the future of our waterfront properties. All three candidates have the credentials to hold office and I hope they will be responsive to the concerns of the residents. If we can work together, we can build a caring community in our village. —Victoria Spielman
