Civility & Respect
We encourage discourse so constituents have a voice in their government and welcome questions and comments. We believe leaders should lead by example and treat people with respect.
We are committed to keeping meetings about borough business. We will acknowledge all questions, comments, and concerns brought forth by borough residents and provide appropriate follow-up.
We are dedicated to making Parkside inclusive of all residents - just because we may disagree does not mean we have to be disagreeable.
Community Engagement & Participation
We believe elected officials should not only work for you, but also WITH you. We welcome and encourage active participation and inclusion in running our borough.
We would like to create more opportunities for residents to come together, collaborate, and build relationships, regardless of political affiliation.
Transparency
We are committed to open communication and believe borough information should be easy to access.
Central to this commitment will be an easy-to-navigate website consistently updated with information on borough events, advanced notice of meeting agendas, contact information for all Parkside officials, and specific information about how and where your tax dollars are being spent.
We recognize that not all residents communicate in the same way, and acknowledge a need to provide information through multiple channels.
Integrity & Competence
Our candidates understand that running our town is a role of public service.
We promise to do what we say we will do, find answers to questions, and be honest when we do not have an answer. Integrity is a cornerstone of trust, and we hope that you can trust us to solve our community's problems.
Using our collective strengths and diverse expertise, we will build upon the strong foundation of our borough.
