And finally, I extend my <strong>thank</strong>s to all the elected <strong>of</strong>ficials –<br />

past <strong>and</strong> present – who have joined us from the State,<br />

County, <strong>City</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>City</strong> School Board.<br />

The leadership <strong>and</strong> service <strong>you</strong> provide is deeply<br />

appreciated <strong>and</strong> I <strong>thank</strong> <strong>you</strong> <strong>for</strong> taking time to be join us<br />

<strong>today</strong>.<br />

I know I speak <strong>for</strong> everyone here in wishing County<br />

Executive Nick Pirro all the best as he continues his<br />

recovery from recent surgery. I have spoken to Nick. I’d ask<br />

that our colleagues here from the County let Nick know that<br />

he remains in the thoughts <strong>and</strong> prayers <strong>of</strong> everyone here in<br />

the city administration.<br />

Today signals not only a new four-year term but a fresh<br />

start. For these past four years our ef<strong>for</strong>ts were focused on<br />

tending to the city’s aging infrastructure, reinvesting in our<br />

schools <strong>and</strong> reestablishing fiscal <strong>and</strong> operational<br />

accountability. We advocated <strong>for</strong> the city’s fair share time<br />

<strong>and</strong> again so that we could reinvest in our neighborhoods<br />

during these difficult financial times <strong>for</strong> America’s cities.<br />
