David P. Redmond

REPUBLICAN

Redmond, 33, of Mineola, is running on the Republican, Conservative and Libertarian party lines. He works for the Nassau County Board of Elections and is a returning candidate who lost a race for town clerk in November 2017.

ISSUES:

• Redmond said his administration would manage town projects better and select the right contractors for capital projects, avoiding the “error” the town made with Gramercy Group Inc., a Wantagh-based contractor North Hempstead hired in 2017 to renovate a Clinton G. Martin Park pool.
• Redmond said "more competent management" would generate savings, which he would propose to spend on expanding outreach programs for seniors, veterans and people who struggle with substance abuse.
• He said he would work to retain town staff in leadership positions so that “no one leaves after four months,” referring to former Highway Superintendent Richard Baker, who resigned in July.
