On the second to last day of my term, I handed out my final legislative proclamation to none other than Mrs. Diane Mitchell Brennan!

Diane was a member of my staff from the very beginning, but her ties to the Suffolk County Legislature run much further than that - as she retired at the end of 2025 with 20 years of dedicated service to the residents of Suffolk County.

A fixture of the community, Diane’s front-seat view to the Village from the glass windows of my office made her a local celebrity, complete with tremendous knowledge of all things Lindenhurst.

The special proclamation I presented to Diane was signed on to by all 18 members of the Legislature, a testament to her service.

Thank you, Diane, and congratulations on your retirement! 🎉

As I pack up 12 years of memories from my District Office in Lindenhurst I think of all the great people I have met and worked with. I believe I left the County and my Village in a better place than I found it.

Thank you to everyone for allowing me to be your voice as your Deputy Mayor, Legislator and Presiding Officer. Congratulations to Rj Renna who will do a great job as your new Legislator. I am looking forward to where the New Year takes me. Happy New Year!

On Saturday, I partnered with The Argyle Theatre at Babylon Village to showcase improvements to the facility made possible by Suffolk County JumpSMART funding!

Renovations to the historical theatre, which dates back to 1922, included an exterior facelift with new lighting, fresh paint, and a new marquee; as well as a new 19-foot mahogany bar, a new tin-inspired ceiling, upgraded lighting fixtures, an improved sound system, and upgrades to the production capabilities of the theatre.

Further, accessibility and the bones of the building received a refresh, with upgrades to the women’s restroom (which has doubled in size, adding four new stalls and sinks), a new roof, updated electrical wiring, improved insulation, concrete repairs, and the installation of brand-new HVAC units.

The allocations through the County’s capital program and Federal American Rescue Plan Act funds, designed to help small businesses and communities effectively recover from the pandemic.

Thank you Village of Babylon Mayor Mary E. Adams, Argyle Theatre Co-Owners Dr. Mark Perlman and Dylan Perlman, Argyle Theatre Director of Operations Dan Ostrander and all of the matinee guests who shared in the excitement with us! And a special thanks to Mayor Adams and the Theatre for presenting me tokens of their appreciation!

At tonight’s Suffolk County Correction Officers Association Holiday Party, President Lou Viscusi and his Executive Board surprised me with a special recognition that reads: “In grateful recognition of your steadfast leadership, commitment to public service, and dedication to the residents of Suffolk County.”

Thank you, Suffolk’s Boldest, for this great honor! I will ways stand with the men and women of law enforcement!

On Tuesday, I presided over my final meeting as a member of the Suffolk County Legislature.

During the meeting, I had my final three resolutions passed, including updates to the County Code regarding the use of electric scooters and electric-assist bicycles and furthering public safety by establishing the First Responder Safety Zone Act.

Until the very end, the safety and quality of life of Suffolk County residents has been my upmost priority. We also approved several other productive pieces of legislation, including:

✅ Legislator Chad Lennon’s resolution combating human trafficking by increasing recordkeeping requirements, strengthening penalties, and restricting hourly rates at hotels and motels

✅ Appropriating funds for infrastructure projects, including the replacement of the Smith Point Bridge

 ✅ Prohibiting the storage, non-retail sale, distribution, shipping, and receiving of banned flavored liquid ni****ne products

✅ Approving the Suffolk County Superior Officers Association labor contract

In addition to this being my final meeting, we also said our farewells to Legislators Rob Trotta and Catherine Stark. We thank them both for their service to this County and wish them luck in their future endeavors.
