Election 2009

October 27th, 2009

Dear Milltown Residents & Business Owners:

My name is Joseph Pietanza and I am a candidate for Milltown Borough Council. I am a candidate because it’s important to me to be able to make a positive difference for Milltown, it’s people, it’s business owners, and to be a voice for everyone at Borough Hall. 

I have been fortunate to have met and spent time with many of you during my endeavors as a volunteer in this community. Over the years, I have listened to your needs, shared your thoughts and heard the issues that are important to you. This has motivated me to reach for a lifetime goal - to serve my community in a meaningful way. 

It would be my great honor to serve as your Councilman. As with everything I do, I will bring with me energy, enthusiasm and honest leadership. I humbly ask for your support, for your ideas, for your concerns - so that together we can make Milltown the best it can be. On behalf of my wife Barbara, our son Anthony and our daughter Gabrielle, I thank you for this opportunity to serve my adopted hometown and I thank you for your kind consideration.

Sincerely,

Joseph Pietanza

Democratic Candidate

Milltown Borough Council

Right For Milltown, Right For Change

October 24th, 2009

Dear Milltown Residents,

I am writing in support of Joseph Pietanza and Richard Ryan, the Democratic Candidates for Borough Council. I have personally known both Joe and Rich for many years. However, my work with them on this year’s campaign has only strengthened my confidence in their ability to serve the residents of Milltown as councilmen.

Not only do both Joe and Rich have great ideas on how to improve Milltown, their current jobs and past experience provide them with the professional skills needed by every councilperson. Joe’s background in finance and his leadership skills, together with Rich’s knowledge of infrastructure issues and public service are invaluable elements that you must not overlook on Election Day. They are committed to working with the other Borough Council members to make sure that the needs of Milltown residents come first and foremost.

The last two years have been hard for all families in Milltown due to unprecedented increases in both property taxes and utility rates. I was raised in Milltown and chose to raise my family here for its small town feel and values. However, the recent increases in both property taxes and utility rates have forced many to question whether they can remain in the Borough. Change is needed before the Milltown we all love is lost. Let’s begin the process by electing Joe Pietanza and Rich Ryan on Tuesday, November 3rd.

They truly are “Right For Milltown And Right For Change”.

Sincerely,

William Deinzer

Chairman

Milltown Democratic Organization
