Harrison Mayor-Supervisor Ron Belmont
Harrison Mayor-Supervisor Ron Belmont told the members of the Harrison Republican Party on Jan. 26 that he will not be seeking another term. Belmont, who served for decades at the Harrison Recreation Commissioner, defeated Mayor Joan Walsh in 2011, and has served as Mayor-Supervisor since 2012. First let us thanks Mayor Belmont for his service to the people of Harrison. His work with so many in the recreation department gave him the experience, and interactions with so many residents and taxpayers to continue his service as Supervisor.
Belmont was a trusted and honest public servant, and he leaves office with the same admiration. The only knock on Belmont was that he had earned a pension and wanted to continue serving. The people of Harrison made the final determination on that and re-elected him five time.
