“I applaud the Board of Legislators’ approval of the new Westchester County Family Court in New Rochelle.  The approval of this lease is a long time coming, and I’m happy to finally have a new location for the people of this County.  My administration and the Board extensively examined this 30-year lease and know that this is the best option for the taxpayers, the courts, and the community.  While the space at 26 Garden Street has to be constructed, it is the best location with easy access to mass transit, close to the center of New Rochelle and the ability to create a state of the art facility.  I look forward to cutting the ribbon on this facility in 2021.”
