NYACK, NY – The Orangetown Democratic Committee has announce its endorsement of Lisa DeFeciani for Orangetown Town Board candidate.

Lisa is a lifelong Rockland resident, growing up in Haverstraw. She recently moved to Blauvelt from Piermont, where she served on the Village Board. Among her many successes as a Village Trustee in Piermont, her role in establishing the Piermont Waterfront Resiliency Commission is perhaps the best example of her passion for the environment. Lisa worked on the creation of a flood resiliency plan, a plan for the protection of the Piermont Marsh, and she led the team that explored design alternatives for a more climate resilient Piermont. As Village Trustee, DeFeciani was also able to secure over a half a million dollars in grant money to assist the Village and reduce the taxpayer burden to address the issue of sea level rise.

“In her work as a clinical social worker, Lisa works with those struggling in our community, particularly those afflicted by substance abuse. Lisa began her education right here in Rockland, at Rockland Community College. Lisa is deeply involved in the Orangetown community – through her church, St. Catharine’s Church in Blauvelt,, as a coach in the CYO basketball league, through her volunteer work at Blauvelt’s Neighborhood Food Pantry and through her two children, Ella and Liam Barile, who
are both students in the South Orangetown School District.” said the Orangetown Democratic Committee in a press release.

Published

on

NEW CITY, NY – Town of Clarkstown Councilman Patrick Carroll announces his candidacy for New York State Assembly District 96, to replace Assemblyman Ken Zebrowki who recently announced that he wasn’t seeking re-election. Councilman Carroll currently represents Ward 4, which encompasses Bardonia, New City, Nanuet, Spring Valley and West Nyack. He lives in Bardonia with his wife Natalie and their four daughters: Madelyn, Lily, Paige and Hailey. He is a graduate of Northeastern University School of Law and Wesleyan University, a licensed attorney, and currently works as an Administrative Law Judge for New York State.

“After speaking with community leaders, I have decided to seek election to the New York State Assembly. Filling my good friend Ken Zebrowski’s shoes will be no easy task, as he has been an outstanding and effective advocate for Rockland families. I hope to build on Ken’s substantial achievements and will work to protect the suburban quality of life that exists in Haverstraw, Nyack and Clarkstown.” said Councilman Carroll.

Since his announcement, Carroll has received key endorsements from democratic leaders from retired Legislator Harriet Cornell and Legislator Beth Davidson.

“When you knock about 3,000 doors alongside someone, you get to know them pretty well—what they believe in, what they stand for, whom they fight for. While I am so grateful to Ken Zebrowski for his 17 years of admirable and effective service as our Assemblyman, I am thrilled to endorse my friend Clarkstown Councilman Patrick J. Carroll for AD-96. I stand ready to knock another 2-3,000 doors to secure your election, Pat—and I know no one will work harder to help Dems up and down the ticket in November!” said Legislator Beth Davidson.
