County Executive Latimer to Host County Budget Public Input Sessions

County Executive George Latimer has announced that two public input sessions will be held prior to the submission of the County Executive’s first proposed Westchester County Budget.

Two public input sessions will be held from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. on October 23.

The 2 p.m. session will be held at Mercy College-Yorktown Heights Campus, located at 2651 Strang Boulevard in Yorktown Heights. The 7 p.m. session will be at the Elizabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University, Moot Court Room, located at 78 North Broadway in White Plains.

These sessions are in addition to the public hearings held by the Board of Legislators.

Latimer said: “My Administration is determined to abide by the principle that government is by the people and for the people. I hope Westchester residents take this opportunity and loudly make their voice heard. It is no secret that our County faces serious financial issues – but together we will work to fix these challenges which lay ahead.”

Business Council of Westchester President/CEO Dr. Marsha Gordon said: “The Business Council of Westchester urges the business community to attend and participate in these important budget hearings. It is critical that both the County Executive and the members of the County’s Board of Legislators hear from the businesses of all sizes on their concerns, issues, and priorities regarding the County’s 2019 Executive Budget.”
