We are strongly committed to:

• Managing borough taxes and revenues in a responsible way that maximizes value for every dollar spent.

• Increasing borough government participation by opening up   positions and boards to all residents who may want to participate.
• Eliminate wasteful spending by replacing over paid political cronies with responsible professionals increasing the effectiveness of how your tax dollars are spent!  

• Protect residential districts from commercial intrusion and over development through update of the Comprehensive plan that has not been updated since the late 90’s.

• Attack problems of traffic congestion, speeding cars and pedestrian safety by continuing our police patrols in all areas of the borough.

• Open council meetings to all who want a voice in how government works.  Return accountability, responsiveness and responsibility to Borough Council.

• Our bi-partisan platform is not just talk. We have continued to embrace all members of council and value their input in representing what’s best for Media.
