John Dingertopadre

I was born and raised in Bergen County

I have four sisters and one brother.

Education –  Bergen Tech High School and 1 year Business Administration

I grew up as a youngster loving automobiles. I loved watching family members work on automobiles and I loved to observe, work and learn. When I was 18 years old I started a small auto body business.

I grew up loving that business and it is my occupation – I am General Manager/Partner in View Auto Body. Started as a one bay garage and have expanded over the years to a 15 Bay auto repair business.

Family – I met my wife, Maria when she brought her car in for repairs to my auto body shop. I dated her for five years prior to being married. We have been married 14 years.

When Maria and I looked for a home, we chose Hasbrouck Heights . We bought our first house on Franklin Avenue 14 years ago. Then seven years ago, when the house on the corner of the Boulevard and Lawrence became available, we decided to purchase it. We’re raising our sons John, 11; Ryan, 9 and our 4-year old daughter Tabatha in Hasbrouck Heights . We love it here. 

Why did we choose Hasbrouck Heights ? – When deciding to start our family, we searched for a family oriented community with a good public school system to raise our children. We fell in love with Hasbrouck Heights .

We take a strong interest in our community and that is the main reason I chose to run for Council, with the support of my wife and children. There is so much that is good here and when we saw what was happening a few years ago, I became even more active in town. We always supported our church and the schools and the children’s activities, but now, in order to keep Hasbrouck Heights free of questionable County Democrat Machine hand-picked Candidates, I felt I had to come forward to work for the people who have brought back Honesty and Integrity to the Council led by Mayor Rose Heck.
