Richard S. Macellaro

DEMOCRATIC

Macellaro, 67, former director of a Brooklyn not-for-profit home health care agency, is running on the Democratic line for his first term on the council. 

ISSUES:

• Macellaro said he would push for prompt implementation of a comprehensive plan for the town, with annual review and an update every five years. 
• He said the town needed a �more transparent� budget process with review and workshops for stakeholders, including residents and business organizations. 
• He said department heads should be �more accountable� to the town council, appearing at work sessions and presenting regular updates about their department operations and budget matters.
