I have been proud of my tenure of public service to the Irondequoit community. Now more than ever, it is critical to be represented by someone who will work collaboratively to unite rather than divide our community. I am confident that my personal experience as husband and father of three and my professional experience as a healthcare leader coupled with my community involvement have more than prepared me to be that person.

About Dave
After meeting in high school, dating through college, and settling in Monroe County, my wife Lindsey and I have lived in our same Irondequoit neighborhood for over 15 years. We absolutely love it here. Our children are growing up in a loving and supportive community. For my children and all the families here in Irondequoit and across Monroe County, I want to help shape the best future possible.
It has been important to me to be the kind of elected official that I would want for myself and my family. I have been accessible, and I show up to engage with our community whenever and wherever I’m able. I return phone calls, I answer emails, and I meet with anyone that asks. I’m giving this my best effort and am honored to have this role.
I have seen, firsthand, how important it is to have public servants represent our community who will put the people of our County over politics. As your Legislator in just my first year, we have been able to accomplish significant achievements such as appointing a Public Defender, redistricting our county, thoughtfully distributing millions in ARPA funds, and unanimously approving a $1.34B county budget that decreases the county’s tax rate to lowest full value rate since the 1940s while focusing on public safety, public health, economic development, and community infrastructure. I am proud to have been a part of these accomplishments that were the result of Legislators collaborating, compromising, and reaching across the aisle. This bipartisanship is the kind of government our community deserves and one in which I am seeking to continue service.
As your Legislator, I have supported actions that invest in our local community treasures like the Seneca Park Zoo, Monroe Community College, Red Wings baseball, and our county parks. I have been attentive to the economic health of our community and have supported workforce development initiatives. I have voted to approve collective bargaining agreements that have shown clear investments in the county’s workforce – those who we rely on to deliver crucial services.
One of the most important issues to me and neighbors is the safety of our community. I voted to support our first responders with legislation that boosted funding. I was also supportive of expanding the county’s efforts to stem opioid and fentanyl addiction and prevent opioid overdose-related fatalities. Finally, I was proud to vote to support legislation to install stop-arm cameras on school buses to help catch those illegally passing stopped school buses and issuing a monetary fine to the violator via mail.
There is still much work to be done. We passed the first Monroe County Climate Action Plan with the goal of reducing the county’s greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050, we started the county's First Active Transportation Plan, kicked off updating the county’s comprehensive plan, and are looking at making high-speed Internet services widely available and more affordable all while enacting efforts to implement action items from the Commission on Racial and Structural Equity (RASE). You can count on me to continue my tenure of public service to the Irondequoit community as someone who will work collaboratively to unite rather than divide. I want to thank you again for your past support, and I would be honored to continue to serve as your County Legislator.
