Thank You

What a great night we had on November 6th! Now that all of the votes have been counted and it is clear that we were successful, I wanted to take this opportunity to offer my heartfelt thank you for all of your support. With your help, and that of countless others, we were able to overcome significant obstacles to be successful.

It was a long journey since that snowy day in February when I announced my candidacy, but what we discussed on that night remains true. Allentown’s number one strength lies with its residents and their resolve to make our City the best in Pennsylvania. If we combine our citizens’ resolve with more effective leadership in City Hall, the results will be nothing short of astonishing.

It is time for me to get to work to help provide that effective leadership so that we can again make Allentown the best place in the Lehigh Valley to live, work and raise a family. Throughout the next four years, I welcome your comments, concerns and suggestions on how we can move our City forward.

Again, we should be very proud of our efforts, and I am both humbled and eternally grateful for your support. It will be a true honor to serve you on City Council.
