PERKASIE â Perkasie Borough Ward 3 councilman Scott Bomboy will run for re-election this year as an independent, non-affiliated candidate, he said in a statement.
âIn 2018, I dropped my party affiliation for several reasons. I am the editor of a non-partisan center that deals with constitutional issues. Iâm also an elected official in Perkasie Borough,â he said. âI felt there could be a perceived conflict as an elected official belonging to a partisan political party while working in a non-partisan editorial capacity.â
Bomboy was appointed to council in September 2016 to fill the unexpired term of a councilwoman who had resigned, and he won election to his Ward 3 position in November 2017. Since then, Bomboy has chaired two newly created Borough committees on public safety and historical issues.
