“Lisa is deeply involved in the Orangetown community and has a great understanding of our town, its many communities, and its struggles. Lisa is committed to tackling some of the most pressing issues in our town: making sure taxpayer dollars are spent wisely on efforts that most impact residents (schools, roads, parks and more); addressing the issue of overdevelopment in our community and the impact on our environment, infrastructure (roads, schools, sewerage systems, etc.), and home values; and, addressing the fear many have regarding the health of our school districts and the possible need for a ward system, like the one recently established in East Ramapo, that would help ensure there is fair representation for all of the communities in Orangetown.”
