Maureen Dougher, Candidate for Nyack Village Trustee
Today Nyack faces many difficult problems: empty stores, parking issues, the closing of Riverspace, etc. But they can all be solved. I am running for Village Trustee in the November 3rd election because I’m a problem solver.
As a Senior Research Scientist doing cancer research at Wyeth, my job is to analyze types of cancers and find chemotherapy solutions. Now I want to put that same problem-solving discipline to work for Nyack, the village I love.
My husband and I have lived in Nyack for over 22 years. We’ve raised our three children here. We’re homeowners. We’re taxpayers. And taxes are a serious problem. But now we face a greater problem: the quality of life in Nyack is getting worse instead of better.
Why? There’s a lack of accountability here. Government can’t be held accountable when just one party controls it year after year. So now I’m giving voters a choice to restore checks-and-balances. If I’m elected, then I’ll ask questions that cut to the chase and that need asking, to hold the Nyack government accountable to all the people.
If I’m elected, I will consider it a privilege and an honor to serve you to the best of my ability. I also pledge to work respectfully, earnestly and honestly with other Board members, regardless of party, to seek the common ground where the best interests of Nyack will be found. May I have your vote for Nyack Village Trustee on November 3rd?
I’m on ballot lines B and C.
