Lewiston Town Board Member

I am writing today to ask for your support of my good friends as they continue their efforts to keep the Town of Lewiston as beautiful and vibrant as it has ever been. Having served as a Lewiston Town Councilman for nearly fourteen years now, I cannot begin to tell you how proud I am to be a small part of our Town’s rebirth and prosperity. As anyone who has ever served their community will tell you, having a local government that really works does not happen by accident. Only by supporting those individuals with the eagerness to roll up their sleeves and become fully engaged in the political process, those who exhibit the ability to see things from another’s vantage point and, most importantly, those who are brave enough to do what is right in the face of adversity, can we maintain our current course.

For voters in 2019, we are fortunate in the Town of Lewiston to have such quality candidates on the ballot. Steve Broderick and Bill Geiben are squarely in this category and I have been truly privileged to serve alongside them for several years now. Both Steve and Bill have a proven track record of fiscal responsibility and for making decisions that benefit the entire Town of Lewiston. Through their leadership and example, the individual departments of Town government have never worked more closely and cooperatively together. I have witnessed Bill and Steve routinely putting policy before politics to ensure that everyone at Town Hall has a voice and that everyone is provided with the tools to do their job to the best of their ability.

Bill and Steve currently serve as the cornerstones of a new and wonderful vision for our town. They are perpetually available to our residence and are continuously looking to improve operational efficiencies, wherever they may be found. Both men have worked tirelessly for the residents of Lewiston and deserve to serve for as long as they are willing to do so.

The prospect of adding a candidate like Jason Myers to our Town Board is also truly exciting. Jason, a resident of Sanborn, brings a unique set of skills and talents that will serve him and the Town of Lewiston well in the years to come. With a background in business management and marketing, Jason Myers will ensure our continued focus on efficient use of taxpayer dollars. Unlike other candidates on the ballot, he possesses actual leadership experience that he gained as the former board president of the Niagara Gospel Rescue Mission. Moreover, his unique experience as a current member of the Niagara Wheatfield School Board will also provide us with invaluable insight to our counterparts at Lewiston Porter. Jason is a natural fit for our Town Board.

As I have said on many previous occasions, I am so very proud to be a member of this community and to serve as your Town Councilman. Please help to ensure that we continue what we have begun by selecting the right people for the job. Join me this November in my support for Steve Broderick, Bill Geiben and Jason Myers.

Far Too Often, Promises Have Proved Empty; Niagara Falls Needs Progress And Strategic Planning

By tony Farina · August 4, 2026

By Tony Farina Promises are nice and they bring hope for the future. But unfortunately, most of the time, promises have fallen flat for the City of Niagara Falls, some succeeding but many turning out to be empty promises and major disappointments. At this point, Niagara Falls doesn’t need more failed promises. What the city needs is progress to build a better future and a plan to make it work. City leadership must bring it all together. While there are promises to build a better future on the table and being talked about, like Centennial Park and the Niagara Digital

Governor Issues Response To McMurray’s Letter on Slag Concerns

By tony Farina · August 4, 2026

By Tony Farina The radioactive slag bubbling up across Niagara County in recent weeks, triggering state and federal testing and some remedial work and family relocations, is the ongoing and seemingly never-ending legacy of the environmental desecration of the past 100-plus years by massive corporations dumping toxic waste that was the subject of Christen Civiletto’s book Thundering Waters. “What we have again is an environmental storm,” said attorney and former Grand Island Supervisor Nate McMurray, a candidate for election to the 45th District State Assembly seat now open because of the retirement of Angelo Morinello. McMurray will run for the
