ABOUT AL, JAY and DIANE

​Al Ribeiro, Jay Ambelang, and Diane Greenfield are running for borough council because they believe Bernardsville's best days are ahead of us. They are practical, solutions-oriented business and community leaders, who aim to bring a private sector mindset to how our community is governed.

​They will enhance the strong plan developed by our Mayor and Republican council members by applying their professional experience to ensure our town is fiscally responsible with taxpayer money, upgrade our borough's infrastructure and emergency preparedness, and help revitalize our downtown and community. They are focused on solving the local challenges our residents face, and are committed to realistic, fiscally-sound solutions that are important to us all. ​
