Bruce Garganio named director of Burlington County Freeholders

At the Wednesday, March 26 public meeting of the Burlington County Board of Chosen Freeholders, the board voted to elect freeholder Bruce Garganio as director.

In remarks thanking the board, Garganio said, “I look forward to working across the aisle to extend our long held tradition of cutting government spending, and holding the line on taxes, all while maintaining and expanding the first rate services that we strive to provide to our residents.”

“I will preserve the priorities set out by this board at the beginning of the year. We will pass a budget that once again reduces the tax burden for Burlington County residents, and we will pass it soon,” Garganio continued.

As director, Garganio’s freeholder assignments include oversight of the county administration, economic development efforts and human services department. He will also serve as liaison to Burlington County College, Burlington County Institute of Technology and the Burlington County Special Services School.
