A leader for South Lebanon.
Linda Burke has dedicated years of service to the South Lebanon and Warren County communities as a volunteer, advocate, and leader. She served on South Lebanon City Council from 2019 to 2023, and after earning the trust of voters was elected Mayor in November 2023 — officially taking office on January 1, 2024.
Since becoming mayor, Linda has focused on responsible growth, fiscal stewardship, public safety, infrastructure improvements, and preserving the strong sense of community that makes South Lebanon a special place to call home.
Prior to serving as Mayor, Linda built a reputation as a respected community leader through her involvement in local organizations, including serving as President of the Warren County Community Services Board of Trustees.
Linda believes local government works best when it remains transparent, accessible, and focused on the needs of residents. As South Lebanon continues to grow, she is committed to ensuring that growth is managed responsibly while protecting the values and character that have made the community successful.
