MOMENT OF SILENCE
In memory of the 947,625+ individual victims of COVID-19 who have died in the United States, 5,978,096+ deaths worldwide, each leaving family members and friends too soon
In memory of Rose Fiorito, grandmother of Jonathan Perry, (who worked the front desk at Town Hall, greeting and assisting resident's for many years). Rose was very well liked and had developed friendships with many of the staff at Town Hall
In memory of Warren G. Jackson, father of Commissioner Terrance V. Jackson of the Town of Greenburgh’s Department of Community Resources, passed yesterday morning (Tuesday, March 8th) after 92 wonderful years of life.
This freedom fighter along with Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, an Olympic Trials high jumper, Successful Advertising, Public Relations, Marketing and Event Management entrepreneur (Circulation Experti, Ltd.), husband and outstanding father of three, did not suffer long and leaves a lasting legacy to remember and embrace.
As a Greenburgh resident for over 35 years, Warren was also a co-founder, with Theodore D. Young, of the original Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Breakfast within Westchester County.
A tribute to Laverne Clark, longtime resident, community leader, community activist and Valhalla UFSD School Board member |

| SUPERVISOR & TOWN COUNCIL REPORTS/ANNOUNCEMENTS
GOOD NEWS...The Town continues (since 2008) to have the highest possible bond rating from Standard & Poors (AAA) and (since 2010) (Aaa) from Moody's. Less than 1% of communities in the nation have this record of financial stability. Recently, on 3/23/2021, Moody's reaffirmed the Town earned Moody's highest rating and, on 03/26/2021, Standard & Poors once again reaffirmed the Town earned Standard & Poors highest rating.
