He wants to expand services, including senior busing, parks and recreation, and department of public works. He also wants to revisit the town’s master plan.

But his major focus is to move the town’s development from high-density apartment complexes and hotels to commercial, looking to bring in more light industry and “white-collar tech” companies, a sector he's familiar with as a theater professional and owner of two lighting companies in town.

Plans for day one

“They’re fairly big and rather involved,” DenDanto said.

He wants to expand services, including senior busing, parks and recreation, and department of public works. He also wants to revisit the town’s master plan.

DenDanto chose to be photographed, out of all the 64 square miles of the Town of Wallkill, in front of two hotels being built off Route 211, down the hill from town hall. He wants the town to conduct a study to see what the need for hotels is, with a rise in area tourism but also with residents’ concerns on building in mind.
