Candidate info: Greg Shwarze

Why are you running for this office?

The opportunity to serve the wonderful residents of our community has always been a passion for me, as has been evident in both my professional and personal life. As a local Firefighter/Paramedic for over 25 years, I have had the opportunity to see the best and worst times for the residents in DuPage County. I have first-hand contact on an everyday basis with the real people who live here.

I also am currently serving in my 4th term in the position of Carol Stream Village Trustee. In this capacity, I am fortunate to have opportunities to speak with residents about the needs of our community. My experience and compassion in this role have allowed me to take serving our residents to a whole new level, which I hope to continue to do in an even greater role as your representative on the DuPage County Board.

What are you planning to do if you win?

I will represent EVERYONE within my District.  I will focus on the needs of our growing senior population and support policies for the working-middle class.  I will continue my track record of being fiscally responsible.  New discussions regarding the opioid crisis need to be made with the epidemic worsening, as I have seen first hand as a Firefighter/Paramedic. Protecting our environment has to be considered in every decision made. Public Safety will always be a priority. I will be transparent and available to my constituents.   I promise to serve with humbleness, honesty, and integrity.

Campaigning with Yard Signs

LTDO member Joe Heneghan recently visited LTDO-TV to explain the laws relating to sign usage, issues with their use, and methods to potentially make them more effective. Some people may want to get signs out before the ground freezes in some places so they don’t have to break out their power drill.  This episode is targeted at the general public that uses yard signs and candidates that are creating them.
