What she will do
-
Responsible spending
“Stop reckless borrowing and eliminate wasteful spending. Tax dollars must be spent wisely and transparently.”
-
Transparency
“End back-room decision-making. Give residents a real opportunity to voice their opinions at Town Council meetings before major decisions are made.”
-
Sustainability
“Halt reckless overdevelopment that threatens our environment and quality of life.”
What the current town board did.
-
2024 Palisades Center
The mall's taxable value was cut from $578M to $300M.
$27.5 million refunded. Ward 3 homeowners make up the difference.
-
2026 Route 303
Three warehouses approved on Route 303.
342 diesel trucks a day polluting our streets.
-
2025–26 Borrowing
The town borrowed money for photocopiers, office software and a timeclock.
Town debt up from $112 million to $156 million. Your taxes pay it back.
-
2026 Engineering
The engineer who flagged a $594,469 billing gap was put on leave.
$594,469 unaccounted for.
Ward 3 is the bottom of Clarkstown.
Ward 3 runs along the Orangetown line and takes in parts of four hamlets: Central Nyack, West Nyack, Nanuet, and a piece of Spring Valley. No hamlet sits entirely inside it. 21,613 people live here.
The Palisades Center is in West Nyack. The town cut its taxable value from $578 million to $300 million. A corporation now pays a smaller share of the property tax here, and Ward 3 homeowners pay a larger one. The warehouse plan on Route 303 would put 342 diesel trucks a day on this ward’s eastern edge.
