We can think of no better candidate to help shape the future of our city. James Ward’s experience, intelligence, and unwavering commitment to Rye make him the leader our community needs right now.
As Rye residents and members of the Rye Sustainability Committee, we have had the unique privilege of working alongside James Ward, a candidate for Rye City Council.
Through our shared efforts, we’ve come to know James as a hard-working, thoughtful leader who is deeply committed to the future of Rye. Under his leadership, Rye achieved Climate Smart Communities Bronze Certification, which has led to an increase in grant funding for Rye. The first wave of funds will go towards a new municipal EV and electric landscaping equipment. James brings a rare combination of experience and vision to the table.
With over 25 years in the finance industry and a global perspective shaped by time living in Japan, James understands the complexities of leadership. His financial acumen will be an invaluable asset as Rye moves through its master planning process, ensuring a sustainable and prosperous future for our community.
What truly sets James apart is his ability to listen, build consensus, and lead without ego. In our work together, we’ve seen firsthand his dedication to bringing people together — whether it’s city officials, local organizations, or fellow residents — to create solutions that work for everyone. His calm and balanced temperament allows him to navigate challenges effectively, a quality that will serve him well on the City Council.
We can think of no better candidate to help shape the future of our city. James Ward’s experience, intelligence, and unwavering commitment to Rye make him the leader our community needs right now. We are proud to support him for City Council and encourage our fellow residents to do the same.
