Ed Lachterman is truly an amazing individual whose dedication, spirit and enthusiasm for the Town of Yorktown is self-evident, but it goes beyond that.

Running a town the size of Yorktown takes experience, and that’s what I want to focus on. Ed has been an elected official for more than eight years and has been an active member of our community for more than 25 years. Ed was a YAC coach, a member of the Sons of the American Legion, president of the Lions Club and on the board of the Yorktown Chamber of Commerce.

Councilwoman Luciana Haughwout often speaks of Ed Lachterman’s deep-rooted relationships with the people of this town, and Councilman Pat Murphy often speaks of his vast institutional knowledge that he has garnered through his many years of volunteerism and public service. I will tell you that Ed Lachterman is, indeed, a true public servant.

I personally have been working with Ed for over 10 years. First as fellow board members on the Yorktown Chamber of Commerce, fighting for the success of our small business community. Ed is now, and has always been, a fierce and staunch advocate of our business community. Lately, Ed and I have been colleagues on the Town Board, once again fighting for the needs and well-being of all the citizens of Yorktown.

I know I can speak for Councilwoman Haughwout and Councilman Murphy when I say that Deputy Supervisor Ed Lachterman has our full support and is a hardworking individual with the experience, dedication, love and institutional knowledge to lead our beloved town into the future. It is who Yorktown needs, and there simply is no one better!
