Meredith B. Lipinsky, Assessor, Town of Riverhead

REPUBLICAN

Lipinsky, 40, is running on the Republican and Conservative lines.

ISSUES: 

• She said she brings two key advantages to the job: She was born and raised in Riverhead, giving her a deep familiarity with the communities in town, and she has been a real estate title examiner for 18 years.
• She noted that the fate of Enterprise Park in Calverton, one of the town’s most important issues, will also be a key focus for the assessor’s office.
• The political newcomer pledged to be nonpartisan in the job and keep an open-door policy.
