Every resident should feel safe walking and biking through our town. We will advocate to:

• Upgrade the Watchung Circle for better pedestrian access and traffic flow

• Add sidewalks to key roads—especially near schools and parks—to improve safety for children, families, and seniors

• Encourage walkability and connectivity throughout Watchung

We believe taxpayers deserve clear answers and responsible decision-making. As your Council representatives, we will:

• Promote accountability in every budget decision

• Improve communication so residents know how tax dollars are being spent

• Make Borough operations more accessible and transparent

Our first responders are essential to our community’s well-being. We will:

• Invest in the staffing, training, and equipment needed for our police, fire, and rescue departments

• Ensure public safety remains a top priority without overspending

• Support long-term planning to meet future emergency needs

We chose Watchung as a home for our families —and we’re committed to keeping our town welcoming and vibrant for all ages. We will:

• Invest in recreation programs that bring the community together

• Support safe sidewalks, parks, and gathering spaces

• Partner with the Recreation Commission, schools, and local volunteers to enhance offerings for youth and families

• Ensure that the new library is built to residents’ satisfaction 

• Create a space that fosters learning, connection, and community for all ages

• Prioritize transparency, community input, and responsible budgeting every step of the way—so the final result is not just a building, but a source of pride and purpose for Watchung
