Mayor Victoria Gearity

Join me Tuesday @ 10AM for my final Live Chat as your mayor. I welcome your questions about village government, and will let you know what I’ll be up to in the new year. (Hint, I’m not going far).

My heart aches for the families mourning this tragic loss. I don't have all the details yet and will share when more is available. For now, I'll hug the people in my home a little tighter, say a prayer of gratitude for my loved ones, and a prayer of peace for those facing inexorable pain.

When the US pulled out of the Paris Climate Accord, mayors from across the country came together to say, We Are Still In. Belief in science and the need to face climate change head on should not be politicized at the expense of the stability of our planet and the prosperity of our nation.

I was proud to sign this statement to include Ossining along with our friends in the Town and so many other leaders across America. I’m confident the new village leadership will continue to promote environmental sustainability.
