Hon. J. William Reynolds

Conseil d'administration

Hon. J. William Reynolds

J. William Reynolds, qui a vécu toute sa vie à Bethléem, a été élu maire en 2021. Il est également président de la Bethlehem Economic Development Corp. Il a obtenu un diplôme Magna Cum Laude du Moravian College en 2003, avec une spécialisation en sciences politiques et une mineure en histoire. William est devenu le plus jeune membre du conseil municipal de l'histoire de Bethléem en 2007, après avoir réussi à s'opposer à une liste de membres du conseil en exercice. En 2014, il a été élu par ses collègues au poste de président du conseil municipal, poste auquel il a été réélu en 2016.

En tant que président du conseil municipal, William a lancé Bethlehem 2017 : un ensemble d'initiatives politiques visant à faire de Bethlehem une communauté plus progressiste. Alors que l'inaction de l'État et du pays sur les questions climatiques se poursuivait, William a ouvert la voie en aidant Bethlehem à établir son premier plan d'action pour le climat. William a également proposé et créé NorthSide 2027, une stratégie de réinvestissement et un partenariat public/privé pour les quartiers du nord de Bethléem, qui comprend des citoyens, des entreprises locales, le Bethlehem Area School District et le Moravian College.
