Meet Anthony
Anthony Puccio, Village of Lombard Trustee and candidate for Village President
Anthony with his wife Jessica and their children.
Anthony Puccio has spent most of his life around municipal government as the child of a public servant, and as an employee in public works. Additionally, he focused his post-secondary education on government with an emphasis on the municipal level. He attended high school at Glenbard East and chose Lombard for his first home after college because of its close-knit atmosphere and all that it provides. Anthony has a strong desire to maintain this atmosphere and to keep Lombard a flourishing community in which we want to raise our families.
First elected in 2019 as Village Trustee, Anthony has worked to streamline municipal operations, increase transparency, and become a respected Village with exceptional Operations.
Anthony has helped balance the village’s budget by bringing in new revenue streams, stabilize expenses, follow through on waterfall policies and creation of new economic development tools.
Over the last 5 years, as Chairperson of Economic and Community Development, Anthony has brought in numerous new projects to the village through a new economic redevelopment program.
Anthony believes the best approach to village government is to hire highly qualified professionals and allow them to do their jobs. As leaders we should provide the tone, the resources, and the facilities to support the services for which the staff are responsible to serve the residents of Lombard.
