Dedicated to Holmdel's Future
I’m Joe Romano, and it has been an honor to serve the Holmdel community as a member of the Township Committee. I’m a proud father of two amazing children and a husband to a wonderful wife who inspires me every day to make a positive impact.
Holmdel is more than just where I live—it’s where I’ve chosen to raise my family, and I care deeply about its future. That’s why I remain committed to supporting, protecting, and advocating for the residents of our community. I'm excited to be running again for the Republican Primary.
This site will continue to grow, so please check back for updates and to learn more about my priorities as I work to serve Holmdel.
