Elmsford trustees swear in new members, approve mayoral appointments and routine resolutions
Summary
At its April 6 reorganization meeting, the Village of Elmsford Board of Trustees swore in newly elected trustees, appointed a deputy mayor, and unanimously approved resolutions on election certification, annual professional service policies, minutes and authorization for consulting services.
The Village of Elmsford Board of Trustees convened its reorganization meeting on April 6, 2026. The mayor opened the session, thanked ceremonial participants and led the pledge of allegiance and an invocation before beginning official business.
The mayor appointed Trustee Nelson Lopez as deputy mayor and administered the oath of office. Trustee Nelson Lopez repeated the oath, stating, “I do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States… and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of deputy mayor of the village of Elmsford according to the best of my ability.” The board also swore in newly elected Trustee David Sar, who repeated the same oath.
During roll call the administrator recorded the presence of trustees and the mayor, and the board moved to accept the election certifications for Trustee David Sar. A motion to adopt the resolution was made and seconded, and trustees indicated their assent during the roll call; the resolution passed.
The mayor announced committee and department appointments for the trustees. Deputy Mayor Lopez was assigned oversight roles including Highway and Sanitation; Trustee Signor received assignments including Building and Engineering, Library and Public Schools; Trustee Doryo was named to Fire, Recreation and IT and related assignments; and Trustee Corales was assigned Police, Traffic and Safety, Municipal Buildings and intermunicipal development duties. The mayor noted that several committees include ex officio service by department heads.
The board considered and approved a package of annual professional service agreements and policies — including the fund-balance policy, investment policy and donation policy — after a motion and second. The board also approved the March 16, 2026 minutes and passed a resolution authorizing the provision of professional consulting services. In each case, trustees responded in the affirmative during the recorded roll calls.
