RECOGNIZING BUCKINGHAM TOWNSHIP SUPERVISOR PAUL CALDERAIO's SERVICE
______
HON. BRIAN K. FITZPATRICK
of pennsylvania
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, December 17, 2025
Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and commend
Mr. Paul Calderaio for his extraordinary dedication to public service
and his lasting contributions to Buckingham Township in Bucks County,
Pennsylvania.
Paul's commitment to service began early in his life while living in
Florida. That dedication only deepened after he and his family made
Buckingham Township their home. For more than three decades, Paul
Calderaio has exemplified the very best of local civic leadership,
devoting his time, energy, and experience to strengthening his
community.
A resident of Buckingham Township since 1955, Paul and his wife have
raised their four children in Bucks County, firmly rooting their family
in the community he has worked so diligently to serve. His public
service to the Township spans nearly 25 years, first as Township
Auditor and later as a Township supervisor, roles in which he
demonstrated integrity, responsibility, and a steadfast commitment to
transparency and good governance.
Throughout his tenure, Paul was a strong advocate for open space
preservation and played a key role in campaigning for a Township bond
dedicated to protecting land for future generations. His leadership
helped ensure that Buckingham Township balanced growth with
preservation, safeguarding its rural character and quality of life.
The results of his dedication are clear and admirable. Under the
leadership of officials like Paul Calderaio, Buckingham Township has
been ranked the safest township in Pennsylvania for its size, maintains
some of the lowest township tax rates in Bucks County, and has achieved
an exceptional AAA bond rating. This is an honor shared by only seven
townships in the entire Commonwealth. Additionally, more than 6,500
acres of open space has been preserved, and the Township is
consistently recognized as one of the best places to live in
Pennsylvania,
Mr. Speaker, these accomplishments do not happen by chance. They are
the product of years of thoughtful leadership, careful use of public
resources, and an unwavering commitment to the people of Buckingham
Township. Paul's legacy is one of service, accountability, and
community pride.
Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Mr. Paul
Calderaio for his many years of service and to thank him for the
positive and lasting impact he has had on Buckingham Township, Bucks
County, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
