Meet Township Committee Candidate Dennis Miller in Cranford, NJ
Municipal Building · (8 Springfield Ave)
Dennis Miller is running for Cranford Township Committee as a Republican in the November 3, 2026 general election. He is running with fellow Republican Sam Prince. They face Democrats Susan Burke and Paul A. Gallo, who currently serves as deputy mayor.
Miller has lived in Cranford for 25 years and in Union County for 48 years, having grown up in Kenilworth. He is married with three children. He began his career in design and later led advertising at Modell's Sporting Goods as vice president. For the past 18 years, he has run his own company, VirtualStagingSolutions.com, which offers digital home staging for property sales and rentals. He coaches girls softball and belongs to the Cranford Jaycees and Elks. Union County Life is profiling candidates so Cranford voters can learn where they stand.
Miller says he is running in part because, as a special needs parent, he believes Cranford does not focus enough on programs and inclusion for residents with special needs. "I will bring a longtime resident's perspective to the committee," he said.
On flooding, Miller wants ongoing river maintenance and dredging, and he wants drainage considered before new construction. He believes overdevelopment adds to flooding. Cranford is part of FEMA's Community Rating System, which gives flood zone residents a 15% discount on qualifying flood insurance. Miller called that "a small benefit considering the damage flooding does." On development, he wants Cranford to be more strategic and favors housing for seniors, veterans, and residents with special needs. On taxes, he points to careful budgeting and using available grants. On traffic and safety, he favors testing and monitoring changes across the whole town before making them permanent.
Cranford voters will choose two Township Committee members on November 3. Stay informed about Cranford news and announcements on Union County Life.
