CARMEL – Putnam County Legislator Bill Gouldman hopes to become Putnam Valley Supervisor on January 1, 2027.
The 68-year-old Gouldman who is concluding his fourth term on the legislature announced his candidacy Monday running on the GOP ticket.
The former business owner has pledged to bring “my record of fiscal responsibility, community service, and environmental stewardship to town hall.”
Gouldman said his campaign will focus on “protecting the character of our town while addressing the infrastructure and affordability challenges facing local families. It has been the honor of a lifetime to represent the people of Putnam Valley on the Putnam County Legislature. Now, I am ready to take the next step in serving the community my family and I have called home for decades. Putnam Valley is a special place, and I am running for town supervisor to keep it beautiful, affordable, and moving forward in a responsible way.”
During his tenure in county government, Gouldman has advocated for water quality, transportation improvements, and responsible budgeting. He said those same priorities will guide his work at the town level.
“My top priorities are clear: Protecting and improving our lakes and drinking water, investing in long-overdue road and infrastructure upgrades—including advocating for town sewers where applicable—while ensuring that local government lives within its means. We can preserve our natural beauty and small-town quality of life while making smart improvements that benefit residents today and for generations to come,” he said.
