In commenting on the evening, GOP chair, Wayne Coluccini, said that he is looking forward to the event which is always a great opportunity to catch up with neighbors. “This is a critical year,” he said, adding, “while Supervisor Duffy has made great strides during his first term in ending the reliance on deficit spending of the previous administration and in repaying a large portion of their record deficit, more needs to be done. I do not want to see our Town take a step backwards.”
Mr. Coluccini went on to note, “at the County level, Rob Astorino had 247 of his vetoes overridden during the 2011 budget process, while Westchester was again named the highest taxed County in the nation for the fifth year in a row. Peter Michaelis’s victory has the potential of ending the Democrat’s veto-proof majority on the County board.”

“Our Town needs Mr. Duffy and his team, and Westchester needs Mr. Michaelis, if we are to effectively reform government and achieve meaningful tax relief,” the Chair concluded.
