To the editor:
On Nov. 5, the people of Westwood will have the opportunity to elect a most qualified and capable Mayoral candidate the borough has been yet to have.
Ray Arroyo possesses extensive experience gained from his professional engagement in large scale construction building. These projects entail expertise in management, administration and economics and demand control of everything from organization to monitoring costs to supervisory and leadership roles.
These characteristics, combined with his firm basis of logical thinking, reality and reason are precisely the elements required to lead and govern as mayor.
His numerous traits and qualifications give assurance to provide meaningful and substantive action on all matters concerning Westwood and its residents; such to continue the borough’s advancement into the future beyond its 125 years.
The “Always Westwood” team slogan is particularly fitting for candidates Arroyo, Bicocchi and Dell as each having served on the Planning Board demonstrating their ability to asses, evaluate and approve legally and commercially appropriate applications for our town which have contributed greatly to the successful structure and streetscape of Westwood.
The residents of Westwood need proper government planning, not just cursory “progressive” social reforms, but decisive meaningful direction required to maintain Westwood’s distinctive charm, attraction and tradition as undoubtedly would be accomplished by the Always Westwoodheaded by Mr. Arroyo.
