Residents of Stroudsburg are coming together to call for greater transparency and accountability in local government through a newly updated public petition. The petition asks for an independent review of recent events and governance practices that have raised questions under Pennsylvania’s Borough Code and the Public Official and Employee Ethics Act. Since the petition began, concerns have been raised regarding potential conflicts of interest, incompatible offices, revolving-door employment, and the handling of election-related matters. In particular, attention has focused on the sequence of events involving the Mayor being sworn in, subsequently resigning, and then accepting a paid Borough position, as well as publicly circulated audio that references election-related decision-making. While no conclusions have been made, many residents believe these circumstances merit careful review to ensure public trust is protected. The petition serves as a way for community members to respectfully express their desire for ethical governance and clear, lawful processes. It also emphasizes the importance of open dialogue, transparency, and public participation in Borough affairs. If you are a Stroudsburg Borough resident or someone who cares about the integrity of local government, you can read the full petition and add your name here: https://www.change.org/p/petition-update-transparency-and-ethics-concerns-in-stroudsburg-borough Community members are also encouraged to attend the next public Borough meeting: Tuesday, January 20, 2026 7:00 PM 700 Sarah Street, Stroudsburg, PA Public meetings are an important forum for residents to ask questions, stay informed, and engage in the democratic process. Continued civic participation helps ensure local government remains accountable to the people it serves.
