Meet Lacy- Candidate for Town Councilwoman
I have spent my life advocating for communities and standing up for what’s right. From improving housing conditions in Newburgh to working at the United Nations on nuclear disarmament, I’ve always been committed to service. With a degree in International Relations and a Master’s in Social Work, I’ve worked to expand resources for students, support families in foster care, and create alternatives to incarceration for youth.
Since moving to Lloyd in 2020, I’ve served on the Comprehensive Plan Implementation Committee and led grassroots efforts to protect our town’s health, safety, and quality of life—including fighting to stop an industrial facility from being located near an elementary school. I believe Lloyd deserves leadership that listens, acts responsibly, and prioritizes residents—not developers.
I bring experience in research, problem-solving, and collaboration, and I’m committed to transparent government and a future that protects what makes Lloyd special.
Meet Mike- Candidate for Town Councilman
After 29 years of calling Highland home and raising three amazing children here, I’ve decided it’s time to give back in a new way—I’m running for the Town of Lloyd Board. This decision comes from a deep love for our community and concern about the direction we’re headed. Too often, development projects prioritize profit over people, creating more traffic, straining resources, and changing the character of Highland.
I believe our town deserves leadership that listens and works for families, not developers. Highland is built on strong schools, safe neighborhoods, and a true sense of community, and I’m committed to protecting that. My focus will be on responsible growth, transparency, and decisions that reflect the needs of residents. Together, we can ensure Highland remains the vibrant, family-friendly town we all love.
