Rudolph A. Sunderman
Rudolph A. Sunderman is running for Suffolk County Legislator, 3rd District

REPUBLICAN
Sunderman, 50, is running on the Republican, Conservative and Independence lines. A volunteer firefighter for 32 years, he is seeking his second two-year term as a Suffolk County legislator.
Issues:
- Sunderman said in his first term he helped push a successful referendum to create a sewer district in the Mastic-Shirley area.
- He also supported a resolution that requires tax-delinquent properties seized by the county in an area of Mastic-Shirley be preserved as open space, rather than resold for housing, to restore marshes and wetlands.
- Sunderman said he is focused on fighting for quality of life issues in the community, such as "zombie homes" and the opioid epidemic, by hosting various community meetings.
