Vote for Burns, Esposito & Tomczak: Leadership, Legacy, and Labor is what is BEsT for Washington Township!
In the upcoming election for our township's leadership, the choice is clear: vote for Burns, Esposito & Tomczak, a team that unites diverse yet complementary strengths to guide our community into a future marked by prosperity, inclusivity, and responsible governance. With a blend of experience, dedication, and a deep-rooted connection to our community, this trio stands ready to lead with integrity and vision.
Burns, the trailblazer of the group, not only shatters ceilings as the only female on the ballot for local government but also brings a wealth of experience as our current mayor, appointed unanimously by the council on December 20, 2023. Her leadership has been characterized by a steadfast commitment to our community's wellbeing, showcasing her ability to guide us through challenges with grace and determination. A lifelong resident, Burns understands the unique needs of our township and is dedicated to fostering an environment where every voice is heard and valued.
Joining Mayor Burns in her commitment to propel the township forward is a team of dedicated local figures, including Esposito and Tomczak, who each bring a wealth of experience and a shared vision for the community. Esposito, whose family has been instrumental in building the foundations of Washington Township, offers over 40 years of residency and valuable insights from his tenure on the school board. His deep historical and familial ties to the area underscore a legacy of service and dedication. Meanwhile, Tomczak, with his current role on the school board and background as a union leader, brings a practical understanding of the needs of the working class and the importance of education in community development.
This dynamic team is set on a mission to enhance the township's appeal and livability, with a special focus on its most treasured residents: the seniors and veterans. This team promises to organize more regular social events and activities for seniors; ensure accessible transportation options; to advocate for senior-friendly infrastructure such as ramps and handrails, and for veterans they promise to support local veteran organizations with resources for assistance programs, job placement, and mental health services.
Their agenda also includes significant improvements to the parks and recreational sports programs; they remain committed to driving economic growth while adhering to principles of fiscal responsibility; and ensuring the township not only thrives but does so within a sustainable financial framework.
Through their combined efforts, Burns, Esposito, and Tomczak aim to cultivate a township that balances progress with preservation, ensuring a bright future for all its residents.
