As 2022 comes to a close, so does my first year as Supervisor of the Town of Cortlandt. I am very proud of our Town Board’s various accomplishments, which includes our weekly Supervisor’s email newsletter (now received by over 9,000 subscribers),  our new skating rink, and the addition of a Community Police Resource Officer (CRO) who brings specialized crisis training to deescalate serious situations in Town. Looking ahead to 2023, there are both challenges and opportunities that we look forward to tackling.

Here is a list of The Town Board's "2023 New Year’s Resolutions” :

1) Complete final design and begin construction of Cortlandt/Verplanck waterfront Amphitheater, for our outdoor summer concert series. Also, completely renovate our children's playground with   seaplane themed attractions at this beautiful waterfront park.
