2 candidates for Medina Village Board say they are committed to community

Editor:

Residents of the Village of Medina: Diana Baker and Jess Marciano ask for your vote on March 21st.

From Diana Baker:

I have lived in Medina most of my life; I’ve grown up here, I’ve worked here, and I’ve been fortunate to raise my daughter here. I hold the position of AVP Project Manager at M&T Bank, and I am the Assistant Director/ Color Guard Caption Head for the Medina High School Marching Band.

I have worked with this group for 14 years, designing routines and coordinating students at practices that develop into bigger shows for both performances and competitions. I strive to help students find their passion and develop skills to allow them to grow, learn, and overcome obstacles they may encounter.

My goal as a Trustee is to encourage the involvement of the younger generation – to learn, to understand in order to contribute to the continued growth of our village. Our community has been blessed to have many positive contributors.

From Jess Marciano:

Having moved to Medina after years of living in urban areas, I am energized by living in a community where a resident can be so closely involved in decisions impacting our daily lives. During my incumbent term on the Village Board, I’ve had the opportunity to work hard at balancing much needed services with the cost it requires to facilitate them and to lead a few initiatives to bring residents closer to the decision making process.

Some of those measures include helping to implement a mass notification system (click here) and creating a public Facebook page (search MedinaJessMarciano) with frequent updates and ways to get involved.

We love this community and the collaborative process working in this village entails. We look forward to serving this village with honesty and respect, and to be a voice for all residents. Thank you for your support.
