This event marked a pivotal moment for the Elmsford Fire Department as it welcomed new officials who will play crucial roles in ensuring community safety.

Peter DeLuca was sworn in as the Fire Chief, alongside Michael O'Nozzo as the First Assistant Fire Chief, and Eugene J. Malone III as the Second Assistant Fire Chief. Each official took an oath to support both the United States Constitution and the Constitution of the State of New York, committing to faithfully discharge their duties to the best of their abilities. This ceremony not only highlights the importance of leadership within the fire department but also reinforces the community's commitment to public safety.

In addition to the swearing-in, the meeting included discussions about applications for the Architectural Review Board.

This reflects ongoing efforts to enhance the efficiency of local governance and address community needs effectively.

Overall, the meeting underscored the village's dedication to maintaining a robust fire service and improving administrative processes. As Elmsford continues to grow, the leadership changes and procedural discussions are essential steps in fostering a safe and well-managed community. Future meetings will likely build on these developments, addressing any unresolved issues and further engaging with residents on matters of public interest.
