ROLL CALL: Town Clerk Judith Beville

MOMENT OF SILENCE

Mary E. Wade Young, lifelong resident of the Town of Greenburgh, was born in 1945 and passed away, June 4, 2018. Mary was committed to her community and to her church. As a pianist for Union Baptist Church in Fairview, Greenburgh, Mary organized the Sunday School Choir. In 1966, she married Theodore D. Young, Founder and first Executive Director of the Fairview-Greenburgh Community Center, later re-named the Theodore D. Young Community Center of the Town of Greenburgh, Department of Community Resources. Mary and Ted were partners, not only in a long sustained marriage, but also in the building of the Community Center as a cultural hub for Fairview-Greenburgh and the town-entire. Youth from the community held-fast to her as a role model and mother figure. For years, she labored with Warren Jackson, father of current Deputy Commissioner of the Dept. of Human Resources, Terrance Jackson, to plan and promote the Martin Luther King Memorial Breakfast, which originated in this Town at the Community Center and remains, today, as a legacy and tribute to the foundation builders of the Center such as Mary Elizabeth Wade-Young. By profession, Mary worked as an Administrative Assistant for the Town of Greenburgh.

GOOD NEWS...The Town continues (since 2008) to have the highest possible bond rating from both Standard & Poors (AAA) and Moody's (Aaa).

Recently (10/06/2017), Moody's once again reaffirmed the Town's highest rating and on (10/10/17) Standard & Poors reaffirmed the Town's highest rating.
