Meet Romel

Romel D'Munda has 15-plus years of experience following the money in financial-crimes compliance. He has built his career making sure large institutions handle other people's money honestly, and he wants to put that same auditor's eye to work for Scotch Plains taxpayers.

At home, Romel is a dedicated husband and father, a U.S. Navy veteran, and a longtime youth-sports volunteer and coach in Scotch Plains-Fanwood. He is an active member of the SPF chapter of UNICO, the Italian-American service organization, and is running for Township Council alongside Brian Johdos and Deanna Dell Bene on the Republican slate, endorsed by the Union County Republican Organization.

Priorities

An Auditor’s Eye on Every Tax Dollar

New Jersey’s property taxes are the highest in the nation. Romel has spent his career bringing line-by-line rigor to how large institutions handle money. He’ll bring that same scrutiny to the township budget, in public, every year.

A Downtown That Works for Small Business

Scotch Plains’ downtown redevelopment should serve the people who live and work here: support local business owners, cut red tape, and keep our small town character.

Safe Streets, First-Rate Services

Fully supported police, fire, and EMS. Well-maintained roads, parks, and fields. A town government that answers the phone and gets the basics right.

Get Involved

This campaign runs on neighbors, not consultants. Knock doors, host a lawn sign, or just tell us what Scotch Plains needs.
