(PIERMONT, NY): A Rigorous And Detailed Analysis Of Kevin Timoney's Answers At The Piermont Mayoral Debate Of Thursday October 9, 2025.

Mayoral Hopeful Kevin Timoney Crashes And Burns His Closing Statement, While Promising To "Straighten" Piermont's Future.

As probably the best indication of how Kevin Timoney would handle any pressure of being Piermont Mayor if God forbid he were ever elected as such, here is how Timoney crashed and burned his “closing” statement at the Piermont mayoral “debate” of October 9, 2025:

KEVIN TIMONEY
… And… because… um[sic]… leadership starts with listening… [cough, cough]… it’s about direction.

We can’t… we can choose to be thoughtful… we [EEYAH!!… excuse me…] we can choose thoughtful development… that pro…[unintelligible]… that… projects that… protects Piermont’s charm while straightening its future. We can grow responsibly and manage our finances wisely and make decisions based on facts, not fear. My focus is on results of safer streets, smarter zoning, and responsible budgets, and a government that works for you… not against you. We deserve leaderships[sic]… that’s not a jo…[unintelligible]… that… that’s not just president[sic] for the fights but prepared to fix them. And that’s me. On Election Day, I hope I’ve earned your trust, your vote, and to lead Piermont into the next chapter. Thank you.

Somewhere, in Heaven, Norm Crosby is laughing like a hyena.

Piermont's Kevin Timoney Fudges His Availability.

In what is probably his most disingenuous answer of the evening, Kevin Timoney came up with this whopper during the Piermont mayoral “debate” of October 9, 2025.

Kevin Timoney proudly touts his full-time career as “Executive Director, Citywide Contracts at NYC Office of Technology & Innovation”, and it is clear that he has no current intention of quitting that post anytime soon. Additionally, in his answer below, Timoney also tells us that he has a husband, and that he has a daughter. He has a family, and a full-time job. He also tells us that he takes a bus commute to and from New York City three days a week, which alone could tie up an incremental nine or ten hours per week of his time depending upon traffic. Maybe more.

Yet we all know by now that the elected post of Mayor of Piermont is also full-time job, but for part-time pay – currently US$12,000 per year. It’s that same paucity of pay, by the way, that directly results in Piermont getting human driftwood running for office like disgraced exiting Mayor Bruce Tucker and now his anointed Mini-Me disciple Kevin Timoney.

So, Kevin Timoney assures us that he can handle two full-time careers at once. Why? Because he has a laptop on the bus. A laptop.

He'll be mayoring from the bus.

So, what is going to happen when there is yet another flood in Piermont? A law enforcement event? A discovery of a new contagion outbreak? A fire? Any of these things could happen at any hour.

Kevin Timoney is running for Mayor of Piermont against Nate Mitchell, a career first responder who works independently and is available to the community 24/7. And Kevin Timoney purports to assure us that he, too, will be readily available to the community as Mayor?

Cognitive dissonance? Having a difficult time wrapping your head around Timoney’s answer? Yeah. There’s a reason. The reason, is that Kevin Timoney is lying to you. Kevin Timoney is a member of a commercial real estate developer family. He wants to be Mayor of Piermont out of affectation, for self-indulgent and self-serving purposes, and to carry out the malevolent anti-Mitchell wishes of his predecessor, Garmento Mayor Bruce Tucker.

If the Piermont electorate asks Kevin Timoney to maintain two full-time jobs, the result will hurt Piermont, not New York City. Kevin Timoney would make sure of that:

DORIA HILLSMAN
…Please explain your professional commitments… and how… will this change or affect your availability as Mayor?...

KEVIN TIMONEY
Oh… So yes… I… that’s a great question… um[sic]… And it was one I thought, as I mentioned before, I do have a five-year-old daughter… uh[sic]… Determining to run for Mayor, obviously, is a big… step and it’s a big thought-process[sic]. That is why I decided to run as an Independent… um[sic]… because I missed the Democratic primary and it was something that needed thoughtful consideration… um[sic]… But the more I thought about it, the more if you didn’t like something, you have to go out and change… and I’ve realized… um[sic]… I am fortunate enough to work from home two days a week, and I commute into the city where… um[sic]… on those other days. But… it’s a commute on the bus. As I mentioned, I get a laptop. I would love to answer questions, work on spreadsheets, do that… like… do things[sic]… I’m a very good multitasker… um[sic]… as my husband knows, I wake up early. I’ll go for a run… um[sic]… my day starts sometimes at 4:30 in the morning... um… Time is… wasted if you’re not doing something, so… um[sic]… I’m up for a challenge and I love it.

Genius Kevin Timoney Tells Piermont Police How To Do Their Job.

I am certain that this particular Kevin Timoney “answer” at the October 9, 2025 Piermont mayoral debate will win Timoney countless admirers - not only at the Piermont Police Department in Piermont Village Hall, but also with law enforcement agencies all over Rockland County, New York and beyond.

Probably one of the dumbest things that Kevin Timoney could do on the mayoral campaign trail is insult the Piermont Police Chief and the Piermont Police force. Yet that’s exactly what Kevin Timoney did, by stating that his way to improve things in Piermont would be to “get them [the Piermont Police] more in a presence”[sic], because “you don’t actually see them when you’re eating”.

Hmmm…

Maybe Kevin Timoney thinks that we should just invite the cops into the restaurant, sit at the table, break bread, and have a few drinks with us, and then make them pick up the check as a sure-fire way to save taxpayer revenue.

I’m not kidding you about the quotations. What is perhaps Kevin Timoney’s most moronic answer of the October 9 Piermont mayoral debate, follows here:

DORIA HILLSMAN
… [W]hat are the elements that affect the quality of life for residents of a tourist destination?

KEVIN TIMONEY
… [H]aving the police presence for these crowded restaurants or whatnot, I think if people see the police out there walking about, riding on a bike, it deters them from… speeding or from acting recklessly walking around. So I think… having more of a police presence while they’re around there, not just driving around in a cop car but actually being physically outside and sh…[unintelligible] w…[unintelligible]… walking the beat… um[sic]… I think would help Piermont with our elements[sic].

DORIA HILLSMAN
Do you feel that the police presence, as it is now, is… adequate, or…?

KEVIN TIMONEY
No, it’s great. But I think… to do a creative way[sic] and to get them more in a presence[sic], so… you know… when they’re out and about and you see the car, but you don’t actually see them when you’re eating, I think people would see them actually walk around[sic]. I think it would help them[sic].

We ALL Want To Know Why It's Not Being Productive, TIMBO.

Here is another excerpt from Kevin Timoney’s Piermont mayoral debate “performance” last Thursday evening.

This one is special:

DORIA HILLSMAN
… [W]hat in your career experience… uniquely qualifies you for… candidate for Mayor?...

KEVIN TIMONEY
… [A]s I have… I have mentioned… I do have a lot of contacts with state and… city agencies. If we needs[sic] help with something, I know people from the MTA that I would love to talk about the Coast Butt[sic]… the Coach Bus, the Rockland Coach, and why it’s not coming at some… certain times or… you know… it’s… we’re… it’s getting grants, why is it not…um[sic]… [pause]… being productive?[sic]. So these are things that I think being 20 years in government could help Piermont thrive[sic].

And yes, that’s really what Kevin Timoney said. Listen to it on the video. He actually sputtered-out “Coast Butt”. Maybe that’s his pet nickname for the motorcoach, after all:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6Jn311x9j0&t=2s

Now I realize that I have already spent a lot of time on this Blog talking about Norm Crosby and Dr. Freud, as applied to Piermont mayoral “candidate” Kevin Timoney. There is no doubt that we could fully analyze the above transcripted passage to Kevin Timoney’s political detriment and Nate Mitchell’s political advantage, if we really wanted to do so. It would take hours, but we could really do it.

Yet in this case, why bother?

Because res ipsa loquitur.

The thing speaks for itself.

Piermont's Kevin Timoney Wants Your Kids As Interns.

Given that but a short 15 years ago, Piermont Village government’s failure to monitor the Piermont Fire Department led to a 16-year-old boy tied to a chair by three other firefighters and sexually-abused, in turn leading to criminal charges and massive civil liability not to mention inexcusable severe psychological damage to the victim and desecration of the Village’s reputation – how smart do you think it would be for Piermont to bring in college-age interns to Piermont Village Hall to handle the Village’s social media presence and other office work?

Well, guess what? It's another one of Kevin Timoney’s bright ideas.

Here. From last Thursday night's mayoral debate transcript:

DORIA HILLSMAN
… [B]eyond architecture and environmental issues, is there anything else you feel threatens the character of the village?…

KEVIN TIMONEY
Thank you. I think… the threat… I would say is that we aren’t really promoting our small businesses as much as I… as I would like... um[sic]… We do have a downtown that does have… a lot of restaurants that we all know, but it does have a beautiful number of shops, and there are also spaces… um[sic]… This is a destination for people to come to. We need to make sure that our stores are getting…um[sic]… [pause]… a social presence. If that is getting[sic]… you know, one of my ideas that I’ve had is trying to get interns… um[sic]… from STAQ or Dominican here to help with… um[sic]… the Village Hall staff with the burden of work, or having them do social media presence for us, so… people realize that, you know, there’s Valentina’s Hair Salon, there’s Presence of Piermont, there’s women’s closing[sic] stores, we have ice cream. I want people to know that this is a thriving community, and we have a lot of character, so I think helping these local businesses… is very important.

So query - would you want your college-age children helping Jennifer DeYorgi Maher affix postage to envelopes and then mailing them out at the post office? Or saying that they did?

Would you want your college-age children caught up in a New City litigation, or a Bruce Tucker-esque New York State Comptroller audit - even as a witness?

For that matter, would you want your college-age children learning to speak word-salad and fake answers on the fly while on the job just like Kevin Timoney?

I didn’t think so.

Moreover, why don’t the spirit and principles of American ingenuity and capitalism generally, mean that the businesses need to do their own damn social media promotion for themselves? Why would that even be government’s function? Because after all, you already know that if digital luminaries like Bruce Tucker and Michael Wright tried to do social media promotion for Piermont businesses, those business would all go bankrupt in the same hurry.

For that matter, why should Kevin Timoney be allowed to make presumably unpaid interns slave away for free, while full-time workers in Piermont Village Hall cash-in with salary, pension, and benefits? Why should the interns be doing the jobs that professional government workers within Village Hall are already collecting lots of Piermont tax dollars to do?

The whole concept is insulting and disconnected from commercial reality.

And besides, the last time I can remember an administration led by a registered Democrat using interns to ease the workplace tension, it didn’t go so well, did it?

Piermont's Kevin Timoney Has Nostalgia For The Garbageman.

I know that I gave Kevin Timoney’s Piermont mayoral-race opponent Nate Mitchell a hard time some number of days ago - about Nate’s campaign literature wherein Nate tried to paint the idyllic Norman Rockwell image of wearing “crick shoes” at the Sparkill Creek back in days of yore.

But that said, this whopper of a Kevin Timoney quote from last Thursday night’s mayoral debate, absolutely wins the prize.

At this part of the mayoral debate program, Piermont’s own answer to Norm Crosby - one Kevin James Timoney himself - tells all of us how he has a “sense” of “comfort” and “nostalgia” for the garbageman.

“Nostalgia”... For the garbageman:

DORIA HILLSMAN
… [W]hat are your views on shared services, that is, police, fire, and… DPW?...

KEVIN TIMONEY
Great, thank you. Uh[sic]… yeah, I agree. I think that you know… we… my husband and I, we moved to Piermont knowing that there was… a police department and a DPW here. It gives you a sense of comfort and… um[sic]… nostalgia that you know everyone. You know the garbage man, you know what[sic] the pickups are, they work with you, you know the times they come.

So I think… we… I enjoy having the police and the DPW and the Fire Department. But I think… um[sic] … as I mentioned, we need to be creative, ‘cause these are expensives[sic]… expenses that we need to account for. So that’s why we need to… start… doing… creative[sic]… we have to start promoting our small businesses and everything so we can pay for this tax revenue[sic]… um[sic]… It is a… luxury that we do have these, but it’s a luxury that we are paying for. So we need to be creative… so we can afford these. But… um[sic]… I support having them all in the town[sic]… the Village for us.

If you are thinking that I somehow mis-transcribed “neuralgia” as “nostalgia” instead, think again. Kevin Timoney absolutely said “nostalgia”:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6Jn311x9j0

And worse yet, consider this - again, after first reading through the usual Kevin Timoney word-salad gibberish. To address the topic of shared services, Kevin Timoney says “we need to start doing creative”[sic] “so we can pay for this tax revenue”[sic].

What the Hell does Kevin Timoney even MEAN? The tax revenue comes in, not out. Maybe Kevin Timoney missed that part of his civics class in grade school. The tax revenue enters Village coffers and is then paid out for services. There is no “we” that is paying for “tax revenue” post facto. Rather, fake politicians like Kevin Timoney impose tax revenue directly upon the shoulders of the working families in villages like Piermont. And from his reference above, you already know where Kevin Timoney is headed if he is the one to present Piermont residents with their next tax bills in 2026.

Moreover, what in the blazes is the “luxury” that Kevin Timoney is talking about? Expenses relating to police, fire, and DPW are necessities, not luxuries.

This individual is absolutely making it up as he goes along.

This individual is a fool.
