 As
you may know, our friend Suffolk County Legislator Jon Cooper cannot
serve again due to term limits. I have been nominated by the
Democratic, Independence and Working Families Parties to follow Jon as
your next legislator. During the next few months, I hope to earn your
support by detailing my vision for the future of Suffolk County.
First, let
me tell you a little about myself. I grew up in a family where the
values of education, personal integrity and community service were held
in high regard. Working my way through school, I became a physician.
Today I operate my own medical practice in Huntington where I
specialize as a pediatric ear, nose and throat surgeon.
My wife,
Rachel, and I live in Centerport with our three children who attend
Harborfields public schools. Over the years I have been active in
community organizations working with our youth coaching basketball and
as an ordained minister. Recently, I served as Chairman of the
Huntington Housing Authority. As Chairman, I helped turn a troubled
agency into a nationally recognized, high performing organization. As a
licensed private pilot, I had the privilege of flying to Haiti with an

Suffolk County Executive
Steve Bellone
|
|
 Steve Bellone is an Army veteran and the current Babylon Town Supervisor. In that role, Bellone kept Babylon in
excellent fiscal standing even as the recession put governments at all
levels in deep financial trouble. Bellone reduced the town's debt every
year he was in office, eliminated red tape to attract new businesses to
Long Island, and delivered a 4.3 million dollar tax cut to residents.
As County Executive, Bellone
will use that same approach to reduce Suffolk's debt, improve Suffolk's
business environment and keep taxes low. Bellone is serious about
property tax reforms to reduce the burden on homeowners which is why he
supports Governor Cuomo's property tax cap. And Bellone thinks it's a
shame that young people are leaving Long Island at record rates due the
high cost of housing and the lack of good-paying jobs. That's why he
will incentivize businesses to move to Suffolk County and help young
people stay by creating good jobs and making it less expensive to live
here.
Steve Bellone was elected Babylon's 30th Supervisor in 2001 after serving a four-year term on the Town Board. more..
