To the Editor:

Nick Episcopia has served the East well for many years and as a Trustee he has acted with great responsibility and attentiveness to the needs of the residents. With all the issues facing our Village, Nick has been PRESENT and ACTIVE - always with the best interests of our residents in mind. In a time of fiscal challenge, he voted for cost containment efforts and has been vigilant on development issues that may affect the quality of life and the property values of the residents of the East. He has never been a single issue candidate or tone deaf with regard to the plight of residents. He is interested and approachable and he will be a steady presence able to listen to the needs and priorities of his neighbors on a variety of important issues in the challenging years ahead.
