As the Greenburgh Town Clerk, I have spent the last few years working with residents from every corner of our town. I have listened to their concerns, celebrated their successes, and witnessed firsthand the challenges that many families face. Those experiences have reinforced a simple belief: leadership matters.
That is why I am proud to endorse Barry McGoey for Greenburgh Town Supervisor.
For too long, many Black residents in Greenburgh have felt that their concerns were heard, but none can say they were always acted upon. Whether the issue is affordable housing, economic opportunity, infrastructure, public safety, or investment in our neighborhoods, residents deserve leadership that listens, engages, and follows through with real results.
Barry McGoey understands that the future of Greenburgh depends on ensuring that every community has the opportunity to thrive. He recognizes the importance of protecting affordable housing and creating pathways to homeownership so that families can build wealth and remain in the communities they helped create. He understands that development should strengthen neighborhoods, not displace the people who call them home.
Barry has also demonstrated a commitment to expanding economic opportunities for local businesses and entrepreneurs. Small businesses are often the backbone of our communities, creating jobs and serving as gathering places for residents. Barry has spoken about partnering with county and regional economic development programs to help local businesses access resources, training, and opportunities that allow them to grow and succeed.
As someone who works in Town Hall every day, I know how important transparency and accountability are to building trust. Barry believes government should be open, responsive, and accessible. He understands that residents deserve to know how decisions are made, how tax dollars are spent, and what results those investments are producing.
I am also encouraged by Barry’s commitment to addressing long-standing quality-of-life issues that affect many neighborhoods, including flooding and infrastructure improvements. These are not just government issues—they are family issues. They affect where people live, how they commute, and whether they feel secure in their homes.
Equally important is Barry’s commitment to supporting the Theodore D. Young Community Center and the programs that provide opportunities for young people, families, and seniors. Strong communities require strong institutions, and Barry understands the critical role these resources play in creating pathways to success.
Barry is not interested in governing from a distance. He understands that meaningful progress comes from engaging residents, community leaders, faith-based organizations, business owners, and neighborhood advocates. He recognizes that the people closest to the challenges are often closest to the solutions.
This election presents Greenburgh with an opportunity to move forward with leadership that is focused on inclusion, partnership, and results. Barry McGoey has demonstrated that he is prepared to bring people together, tackle difficult issues, and ensure that every community has a seat at the table.
For those reasons, I am proud to endorse Barry McGoey for Greenburgh Town Supervisor. I believe he has the vision, character, and commitment necessary to lead Greenburgh into its next chapter, and I encourage residents throughout Greenburgh to support his campaign.
In Solidarity,
Dr. Lisa Maria Nero, MPA

Judith,
Thank you for this clarity. I support Paul and will do my work to continue the work for Racial equity and human rights for Greenburgh. That hope won’t have a moments chances if Paul does not remain. This change would be dangerous and would consolidate the town board in a direction that we do not want.
There is no indication that Barry has invested any time in thought and learning about human rights…or.. His own gender unearned privilege. I’m rolling my eyes. If he did such an investigation, he would show up differently on the campaign trail and if he did this work, we would all know it. we would back him. We would organize with him, and there would be no question about a new direction and election, but there isn’t any evidence and there isn’t any hope that we will see greater human rights or equity in the Township of Greenburgh with Barry as Supervisor
