Meet Our Candidates for Borough Council

John Ferreira

Council candidate

John Ferreira is a firefighter, U.S. Air Force veteran, and proud blue-collar American running for Town Council to bring common-sense leadership back to local government. Raised on the values of hard work, service, and responsibility, John has spent his life answering the call — first serving his country in the United States Air Force and now protecting his community as a firefighter.

John understands the struggles working families face because he lives them. He believes local government should respect taxpayers, support first responders, and make decisions that protect the character and future of the town.

His campaign is built on the same principles that guided him in uniform and in the firehouse: show up, work hard, and always put the community first. John is running to make sure the voices of everyday residents are heard and that the town remains a place where working families can thrive.
