Letter to the Editor: Monmouth Country Freeholder Endorses Candidates

Monmouth Country Freeholder Serena DiMaso explains why she is voting for her candidates of choice in the upcoming elections.

This year’s election season doesn’t carry with it the big ticket names for President or even Governor, but in Monmouth County and Holmdel it certainly does. Freeholder Director Lillian Burry and Deputy Director Gary Rich have worked diligently for the residents of our county. In Holmdel, our Mayor Pat Impreveduto and Committeeman Greg Buontempo mirror that work ethic and continue to deliver the best quality of life for our beautiful community.

Any one who knows me, knows how often I tell the story of why I chose Holmdel and Monmouth County. BUT, in case you haven’t heard, here’s the short version, we wanted a place we could raise our children and they could raise their children. We wanted a community that boasted the best school systems, park systems and quality of life in all of New Jersey. We found it. It’s all right here in Holmdel Township, Monmouth County. Why? Because of the leadership of the Monmouth County Board of Freeholders and the Holmdel Township Committee.

So, when we chose to make our home in Holmdel it was because of those leadership qualities, and elected officials making the right decision not always the popular one. Our Republican leaders were and are careful with our money and watch every dollar as if it was their own. They put our public safety first, so we can rest easy knowing we are protected. They make sure we have the best amenities for a wonderful quality of life, like our libraries and parks.

Many ask why I chose to become a member of the Township Committee, become Mayor and then join the Board of Chosen Freeholders. Here’s why, to be part of a team that cared about the future of our town, and our County. Cared to preserve what great leadership had already delivered. One that worked hard to ensure that our quality of life was ongoing, not a fleeting thought. This team is doing just that, and I am proud to be a part of such a great partnership as we continue to work hard and fight for all of you every day.

Please do not be fooled by the silly season rhetoric, look around, see the wonderful place you live and you’ll know what the truth is.
