Experience, vision distinguish candidate

Posted March 17, 2025 4:00 am

For 16 years, I had the distinct honor of serving on the Village Board of Arlington Heights, with 10 of those years spent alongside Jim Tinaglia. Throughout this time, I witnessed firsthand Jim’s unwavering dedication to the residents of Arlington Heights. He consistently offered innovative solutions and collaborated seamlessly with residents, staff, and the village board, to make decisions that served the best interests of our community. Jim is remarkably inclusive, always valuing and considering everyone’s opinions, even when they differ from his own.

On the rare occasions when his architectural firm presented a project before the village board, Jim always maintained the highest ethical standards. He removed himself from all conversations, discussions and votes, and even left the room to avoid any appearance of impropriety. His actions speak volumes about his integrity and commitment to serving Arlington Heights with honor.

Jim’s extensive experience, visionary leadership, exceptional skills, and even-tempered demeanor are unparalleled by any other candidate. His genuine love for Arlington Heights, combined with his unique qualifications, make him the ideal choice to lead our community into the future. I wholeheartedly endorse Jim Tinaglia to be our next Mayor of the village of Arlington Heights.
