Supervisor
John A. Fatcheric II
 
 

John Fatcheric has served as our Town Supervisor since 2022. He was born and raised in Syracuse in the West End/Tipp Hill neighborhood where he graduated from Christian Brothers Academy and S.U.N.Y. Cobleskill. John moved to Camillus in 1982 and has been a proud resident for the past 41 years.

John is a no nonsense, straight forward leader. No concern is too big or too small. This approach has paid many dividends for the community in both savings and efficiency. He identifies the Town's needs and finds solutions in a fiscally responsible manner. John believes in team work, and consequently, three collective bargaining unit negotiations were finalized in his first term. A new and improved employee health insurance program has been implemented, and he started the Hometown Hero Veterans Banner Program in support of local Veterans. Through John's strategic planning, the Camillus Senior Center recently received a grant award in the amount of $100,000 for capital improvement and other projects from Onondaga County.

On November 7th of this year, John would be humbled to receive your vote which will allow him, and the Town Board, to work together for a open and transparent town government. John is uniquely and whole heartedly committed to working toward a better Camillus to improve your quality of life while building a promising future for our next generation.

Please feel free to contact John at jfatcheric@townofcamillus.com. He would love to hear from you.
