What will Bill do for you?

  • Increase Ratables.

  • Maintain and Enhance Leonia’s Quality of Life.

  • Get Value For Every Tax Dollar.

  • Communicate, Communicate, Communicate.

Leonia is facing substantial challenges around development and the pressure of urbanization which can materially affect our quality of life. Borough finances will come under increasing stress given mandated state cost increases for insurance benefits and pension funds.

Now more than ever, we must have capable, proven, and consistent leadership which will continue to position Leonia for success, help preserve our residential character and help us get every penny of value from each tax dollar.
