Matt Gambrel

Boardman Township Trustee 2025

It’s Time for a Change

A New Voice, A Trusted Neighbor, A Proven Problem Solver

Boardman has shaped who I am, a lifelong resident, local attorney, community volunteer, and a parent. I’m running for Trustee because I care deeply about our township’s future. I bring not just experience, but perspective, someone who lives here, works here, and is raising a family here.

Boardman deserves leadership that listens, communicates honestly, and brings fresh ideas to solve old problems. Let’s make our community stronger, together.

Issues and Priorities

  • Addressing Flooding

    Flooding has impacted too many Boardman neighborhoods for too long, from Midlothian to Western Reserve Rd. It’s time for new ideas, new urgency, and community-first solutions. As trustee, I’ll push for real progress and keep residents informed every step of the way.

  • Emergency Services

    We need reliable ambulance services, and transparency about how they’re funded. I’ll work to ensure our Fire, Police, and EMS teams have what they need, while keeping residents clearly informed about levies and spending.

  • Roads and Infrastructure

    Our roads need consistent care. I’ll advocate for properly staffed and resourced road department to fix potholes, plow efficiently, and maintain safe, passable streets.

  • Smart Fiscal Policy

    Rising property taxes are hurting families. I won’t support new taxes unless it’s absolutely necessary, and I’ll always advocate for cutting waste before raising rates.

  • Transparency and Trust

    Too often, residents feel blindsided by decisions or unclear levy language. I will work to ensure decisions are clearly explained, and your questions get answered.

Meet Matt

I’m not running to climb a political ladder, I’m running because I’m one of you. I’m a father, a neighbor, a taxpayer, and a lifelong Boardman resident. I know what it means to be part of this community because I’ve never left it. My personal values reflect those of the families who live and work here every day.

Let’s talk. I want to hear your ideas, your concerns, and your vision for our town.
