Parsippany, NJ – Parsippany Republican Mayoral candidate Justin Musella proudly announced Casey Parikh and John Bielen will join his team as Township Council candidates in the upcoming June 10 primary election. Their addition reinforces Musella’s commitment to fighting mismanagement in town hall, preventing overdevelopment, and holding the line on taxes to create a better future for Parsippany residents.
John Bielen has been a dedicated public servant and a leader in Parsippany’s youth sports community. He has long been involved in shaping the next generation, serving as a Little Vikings Football league representative, director of the Little Vikings’ flag football program, PAL wrestling coach, and Par-Troy East baseball coach. His passion for community involvement, teamwork, and open communication aligns perfectly with Musella’s vision for a more responsive and resident-focused town government.
Casey (Kaushik) Parikh, a Parsippany resident for 37 years, brings a wealth of experience in planning, zoning, and community service. With degrees in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Finance, Parikh spent 36 years in the professional field, including management roles in the security industry and contributions to NASA’s Space Shuttle launch team. Since retiring in 2013, he has dedicated himself entirely to volunteering and public service.
Parikh’s extensive leadership experience includes serving as Chairman of the Parsippany Planning Board for 24 years, a member of the Morris County Planning Board, and a Parsippany Zoning Board member. His service has earned him multiple accolades, including the Outstanding Citizen of the Year Award from the Rotary Club and the Outstanding Community Service Award from the Parsippany Indian Association. His deep understanding of town planning, zoning, and responsible development makes him a valuable advocate for residents.
Musella’s campaign for Parsippany Mayor is focused on creating a transparent, efficient government that listens and acts on residents’ needs. With Bielen and Parikh on his team, he is confident that they have the skills, experience, and dedication needed to tackle Parsippany’s challenges and restore trust in local government.
“I am thrilled to have Casey Parikh and John Bielen join my team,” said Musella. “Their dedication to our community and wealth of experience will bring valuable perspectives to our campaign. Together, we will fight mismanagement in town hall, combat overdevelopment, and hold the line on taxes to ensure we make Parsippany a great place to live again.”
