SKYLER D. COHEN

DEMOCRAT FOR MAYOR OF CRESSKILL

Better Spending. Better Schools. Better Cresskill.

BUILDING A BETTER CRESSKILL

A Community-Driven Approach to Excellence

"I'm committed to transforming Cresskill into the premier community in Bergen County through smart management, superior schools, and transparent governance – all powered by community collaboration."

As a lifelong resident who attended Cresskill schools from kindergarten through high school, I understand what makes our town special. With my computer science and business management background, I’ll bring an analytical, efficient approach to town government.

Cresskill residents deserve maximum value for their tax dollars. Our government must address real community needs based on evidence and resident expertise, not wasteful spending or political trends.
