As a lifelong resident of Easton, I have seen the challenges and opportunities our community faces. Today, I am excited to announce that I am running for City Council to represent District 2, a neighborhood I have called home for 55 years. With your support, I hope to bring a fresh perspective and practical solutions to the issues that matter most to our families and businesses.
I believe in the potential of Easton. For over four decades, I’ve worked here in various capacities—from co-owning Daddy’s Place, a popular local restaurant, to running a successful Disc Jockey business. For the past 25 years, I have also served the City of Easton in several roles, including laborer, heavy equipment operator, building inspector, and code administrator. These roles have given me a deep understanding of how our city functions and what works well and needs to be changed.
As a proud resident of South 9th Street, married to my wonderful wife Lena, and a father of four and a grandfather of six, I care deeply about the future of Easton, especially in the West Ward, where I have spent my life. The issues here are personal to me.
As your City Council representative, I will prioritize being accessible, listening to your concerns, and working tirelessly to ensure that we create a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant Easton for everyone. It will be my goal to make Easton a city we’re all proud to call home.
I humbly ask for your support in this campaign. Together, we can make Easton better, stronger, and more connected than ever before.
Blogger's Note: I know Sharbel and have visited his excellent restaurant many times more than I should. He and his family are good people. But can a Republican get elected in a heavily Democratic District? Can a former code enforcement officer get elected an any district? We'll see.
