I am writing to express my strong support for Jon Kaiman to be elected to serve once again as the North Hempstead Town Supervisor.
Jon’s extensive experience in government leadership, his track record of securing funding for essential programs, and his commitment to fostering inclusivity and diversity make him the ideal candidate to lead our town.
During my time serving in his administration, I had the privilege of witnessing Jon’s unwavering commitment to our community, particularly in the face of the devastating flooding that many residents in the communities of Mineola, Carle Place and New Hyde Park were facing.
His guidance, dedication and success in securing funding were instrumental in ensuring the execution and completion of flood mitigation projects, which were crucial in addressing the floods that had long plagued these communities.
In particular, I remember Jon’s work helping the New Hyde Park Police Athletic Center deal with the damage flooding had caused to an important construction project.
Jon’s leadership was pivotal in assisting the organization with funding and coordinating with other governmental agencies, allowing it to once again become a valuable resource for the community. His vision and determination were evident throughout this process.
Another project I had the privilege of being a part of was the construction of Manhasset Valley Park.
Witnessing Jon’s leadership firsthand, I observed his tireless efforts to make this project a reality. Today, the park stands as a testament to Jon’s dedication, offering our community a beautiful space for recreation and enjoyment, and exemplifying his vision of a better North Hempstead for families.
In addition to these impactful projects, Jon’s leadership during Superstorm Sandy was truly remarkable to see firsthand.
Working alongside him during this crisis, I observed the way he worked around the clock to ensure that residents had the support and resources they needed. His compassionate and steady leadership demonstrated his unwavering commitment to the welfare of our community.
North Hempstead needs a leader who not only has a track record and vision but has proven their dedication through real-life experiences. Jon Kaiman embodies these qualities, and I strongly encourage all residents to cast their vote for Jon, a leader who has consistently shown that he is committed to our well-being and the betterment of our community.
