Who is Zach?
About the Candidate: Zach Bark
My commitment to Yardley runs deep. As your elected Commissioner on the Yardley Borough Planning & Environmental Advisory Committee, I have been honored to help guide our town’s growth and protect our natural resources. I was entrusted with this role through a public appointment, as covered by Patch, and I take seriously the responsibility to listen to our residents and put Yardley’s best interests first.
In my service as commissioner, I’ve worked alongside neighbors, local leaders, and fellow volunteers to balance responsible development with the preservation of Yardley’s green spaces and small-town character. Supporting new tree plantings, advocating for smart infrastructure, and finding common ground on tough issues—these are all part of the work I believe in. To me, progress starts with open dialogue and a shared vision for Yardley’s future.
Professionally, I am a leader in pharmaceutical communications and marketing at Omnicom Health, with a focus on the professional space. My career has centered on helping life-changing healthcare brands engage medical professionals through clear, effective communication strategies. I’m known for simplifying the complex, fostering strong partnerships, and delivering creative solutions that ultimately help drive improved patient care.
Beyond my professional life, I’m a dedicated community volunteer—coaching youth lacrosse, supporting local events, and always looking for ways to give back to the place I call home. Whether in public service, on the athletic field, or in community projects, I value teamwork, listening, and getting things done.
I’m running for Mayor because I believe Yardley deserves steady, transparent, and forward-thinking leadership. Together, we can keep our town a wonderful place to live, work, and raise a family—rooted in strong values and bold ideas.
Let’s build Yardley’s future together—one conversation, one project, and one neighbor at a time.
Leading Together, Neighbors First…
As Mayor, I will be a strong and trusted voice for all of Yardley Borough. My background in collaborative leadership and communication prepares me to serve as a connector—uniting residents, local organizations, and our council around shared goals. I understand the importance of being a visible and accessible representative, both in everyday matters and during times of emergency, working closely with our first responders to help keep Yardley safe and informed. Drawing on my experience managing complex projects and budgets, I am committed to the fiscal responsibility and transparent stewardship our community expects. I will always advocate for Yardley’s best interests, ensuring every resident feels heard and supported while upholding the highest standards of the office.
