Coop Village Election is Next Tuesday

Elections for village trustee are coming up on March 21, 2023. There are two outstanding candidates running for two positions.

Joe Membrino is an incumbent who has diligently served residents as a trustee who approaches his work thoughtfully, with attention to detail, and a strong sense of fiscal responsibility. Joe’s leadership on the Water and Sewer Board has been especially impactful as the wastewater treatment plant upgrades were completed.

George Fasanelli is a newcomer to village government, but his steadfast attendance at board meetings in the past year has given him a thorough grounding in the issues facing our community today. George’s background in law enforcement, his volunteer work with community organizations such as Rotary, the food pantry and the library, and his passion and enthusiasm for Cooperstown will make him an ideal representative for our residents. The Cooperstown Democrats are proud to support these excellent candidates and encourage everyone to get out and vote at the Fire Hall from noon to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, March 21, 2023.

Chair, Cooperstown
