STEVE TASSELLI

MILL HALL — Incumbent Bald Eagle Township Supervisor Steve Tasselli has announced his intention to seek re-election as the Republican nominee in the May 20 Primary Election. The position is for a six-year term on the board.

Tasselli is a graduate of Lock Haven High School and Lock Haven University and is a member of Holy Spirit Catholic Church, a lifetime member of the Sons and Daughters of Italy and currently is secretary of the Building Association.

Tasselli retired from Jersey Shore State Bank after holding positions such as senior vice president and senior lending officer. He currently is a board member for Journey Bank, of Bloomsburg, and serves as a committee member of both Asset Liability and executive management committees and is vice chairman of the lending committee.

A lifelong Clinton County resident, Tasselli moved to Bald Eagle Township in 2023 and first became involved in township government as an auditor, being elected chairman in 2018.

In 2019 he ran for township supervisor and was elected in 2020. He currently serves as chair to the board.

“Upon joining the Board of Supervisors, I utilized my business skills to update and streamline the Business Office. I personally worked to fill numerous vacancies on the township boards with quality, hardworking and dedicated residents. Through this effort and these individuals, Bald Eagle Township has gained efficiencies and streamlined its daily business function and its service to the community,” Tasselli said in his announcement. “In conjunction with our educated and licensed team of professional employees, we have eliminated waste, upgraded operations and equipment, which enabled a more comprehensive and responsive environment.”

“Our township has not raised taxes in decades, with no increases being projected for future. Our budget has been consistently accurate, providing a surplus of funds which aids in the support of its citizens. We have eliminated millions of dollars of debt, while still building reserves,” he continued. “These reserves are invested in secure, interest yielding instruments through the state system. Of particular interest is a safe, secure, guaranteed certificate of deposit at a local township bank.”

“Bald Eagle Township is diverse and growing. From our business and industry, to our residential housing growth and development, we have a past to be proud of and a future to look forward to,” he concluded.
