Message from the DMC Chair

Good Neighbors -

I’m honored to be selected as Chairman of the Leonia Democratic Municipal Committee - a group of individuals committed to representing the best interests of Leonians.

I assume this responsibility at a critical time for Leonia. Rising property taxes could make it difficult for many of our neighbors to remain in town; budget challenges are affecting vital community services; the downtown business district is in desperate need of revitalization. These issues, and others, are of deep concern to Leonia residents.

Leonia has the talent and innovative ideas to overcome our challenges. There are currently several exciting initiatives underway which address the important issues in our community. However, to move forward, the climate in Leonia needs to be one of communication and cooperation between the various political groups and government agencies.

In the coming months, the DMC will utilize our resources to help create an environment that will facilitate improvements to our town and make Leonia a better place to live for all of our residents.
