My name is Paul Anzilotti, and I am running for Village of Pelham Trustee. As a lifelong resident, I have been fortunate to grow up in this community and even more fortunate that my wife Ann Marie and I have been able to raise our two children here. It is only natural that I want to help improve the quality of life in the community I have always called home.

Paul Anzilotti’s campaign statement: the Village has needs that ‘cannot be ignored, and they must be addressed through careful planning, realistic cost estimates, and responsible financial management’

Paul Anzilotti is originally from Pelham. He and his wife, Ann Marie, have raised two children.

I am an engineer with more than 35 years of experience in the construction industry. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive expertise in reviewing plans and specifications, estimating project costs, negotiating contracts, budgeting, planning, and managing construction projects. I have also worked with numerous municipalities throughout the tri-state area, including the Village of Pelham, helping address their infrastructure needs.

2026 New York General Election

Bring openness to Village decisions
Encourage participation and a free exchange of ideas – if you come to a Board meeting because of a bad decision like the Picture House RFQ, we won’t ask you to limit comments to “two or three minutes”; we’d rather hear you speak than us
Require that any new development serve a public purpose, be in scale, and not worsen issues with our infrastructure and our schools
Find a way to restore appropriate parking to those who have lost it

Neighborhood Party candidates describe Village of Pelham’s current path as unsustainable, announce platform for getting back on track

Pledges to require new development to serve a public purpose, fit its scale, and not worsen impacts on infrastructure or schools.

Housing & Urban Development

Anzilotti, an engineer in the construction industry, wrote that his goal as a trustee would be “to achieve a budget that will provide good value while maintaining a high level of services for the community. I understand this is not an easy task, and it requires a careful balance, but it must be defined and controlled.”

Public Services

As of October 23, 2026, Paul Anzilotti did not have a website or any information online.

Public Safety

We pledge to:

Focus on getting the Village’s finances under control
Serve without pay and encourage our Mayor and fellow Trustees to do the same
Vote not to exceed the tax cap during our time in office
Create an overall plan for needed infrastructure improvements, such as flood mitigation, not just borrow and spend, willy-nilly, year after year
Bring openness to Village decisions

Parking and traffic are also important concerns for residents and local businesses. The elimination of a vital parking structure has reduced available parking and contributed to increased congestion in our shopping district. I want to collaborate with local businesses, property owners, residents, and fellow Village officials to identify opportunities for additional parking and practical improvements to traffic flow.

Pledges to create an overall infrastructure plan that includes flood mitigation rather than repeated borrowing.

Regardless of how much unexpected revenue comes in, the Mayor and his rubber stamp Board are continuing – and exceeding – their historical spending patterns. Spending in anticipation of unexpected revenue, moreover, is wholly inconsistent with “building up the Village’s reserves.” (You may hear from Mayor Mullen and his Trustees that this is what they are doing with tax increases; don’t believe it.) Given the Comptroller’s report, any unexpected revenue should be allocated to the general fund so Pelham may operate like more fiscally responsible peers; instead, those funds flew out the door before they ever came in.

Economy

The proposed flood remediation project is a particularly important example as this project is essential to the community. Current estimates suggest that, without changes to the proposed approach, the project could increase Village debt by approximately $35 million. Before committing taxpayers to this level of financial obligation, we must thoroughly evaluate the project, explore alternative solutions, carefully assess costs, and pursue solutions that address our infrastructure needs without overburdening taxpayers.
